Mandatory reading

Here's a couple of things that you should read in order to become a more informed person. First, this piece from Norman Podhoretz on who is really lying about Iraq. Second, this Q&A from Sunday's Union-Tribune with Stephan and Abigail Thernstrom on education in America.

A little more humility

You'd think that, in the wake of big disgraces like Mary Mapes and Jayson Blair and all of the other little disgraces -- like the NBC reporter canoeing through ankle-deep water, that mainstream journalists would be a little more ... chastened when throwing stones at blogs.

Silliness

I'm a big "Mythbusters" fan and often watch an episode (I've got my DVR set to record them) when I've got 45 minutes to kill. So, I'm watching an episode called "Confederate Rocket" and they're trying to recreate a rumored Civil War-era rocket that reportedly flew about 100 miles.
