Nebraskans Helping Out, A BlegPost updated on 9-3-2005! Now accepting PayPal donations! Scroll down for details. Last night I mentioned that I was helping out on a cool project to get a truckload of relief supplies delivered to Mississippi from my local community. Today,...Hooray For College Football
This is shaping up to be a great college football season. Notre Dame takes out Michigan. Iowa State up-ends Iowa for the Cy-Hawk Trophy. Next up: Horns and Ohio State. If things keep playing out this way, I'll be back...Strangest Story of the Week
Now this looks like an accident to me, but I have to admit its alittle wierd. This is the proposed memorial to UAL Flight 93, that crashed after its passengers challenged the hijackers on 9/11. Many bloggers have observed that...Another Disaster Prophecy?
9-11: Remembering an Anglo-American HeroQuick, name an American city of 450,000 where the majority of the population is non-white, where a quarter of the population lives in poverty, and where some of the city streets are, even on a dry day, below sea level. New Orleans, of course. But also Long Beach, California.What happened in NOLA could apparently also happen in California's Long Beach, complete with large minority populations left at the mercy of the elements. The biggest difference is that they are being kept that way by envirowackos who feel that a "natural" beachfront is better than bothering to protect people & their homes, etc.
Parts of the city in southern Los Angeles county stand an average three feet below sea level, compared to eight feet for New Orleans. Yet despite all the talk from the political left that the Bush administration has effectively drowned New Orleans residents, that same political left is working assiduously to leave Long Beach residents exposed.Typical moonbat logic - or lack therof - never to be bothered by a mere bugaboo of being consistant.
Read the rest to gain a bit more insight into the mind of the elitist envirowacko cult of nature uber alles.
On A Personal NoteRick Rescorla Was a Soldier
If you were to tread one post for 9-11, the Chief suggests strongly that this would be the one! Rick Resorla was security head for Morgan Stanley in the WTC. He predicted an attack on the building through the parking garage before it happened. After security on that was beefed up, he actually predicted air attack via crashing airliners as the next method to be used.
As if that isn't enough, there is an exceptional record of service and heroism in the life of this Cornwall born naturalized American that is well worth remembering as exemplifying the best. He served with distinction in the Royal Army, and then in the US Army 7th Cav in Viet-nam.
Check Greyhawk's post in the Mudville Gazette out - it's well worth it. Check out the links there, and don't forget to sign the petition for Rick to get the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
UPDATE: History Channel tonight running an excellent program "THE MAN WHO PREDICTED 9-11" - about Rick Rescorla. By the way, you can see Rick Rescorla's picture on the cover of the book We Were Soldiers Once, and Young.
A Soldier, indeed.
I'm up in South Dakota right now for my birthday weekend, so expect blogging to be light. I'm also going to be helping my grandmother move today, so there's that. However, fear not: the drive for our local Sheriff's Relief...Noxious Numbskullery: the Katrina Edition
This from Robert Scheer, the LATimes version Paul Krugman. Instead of the much-celebrated American can-do machine that promises to bring freedom and prosperity to less fortunate people abroad, we have seen a callous official incompetence that puts even Third World...Louisiana's Ghost Train
As I've stated in this space before, I think that the registered voters of Louisiana have a lot of questions that need to be answered. Nagin said that by daybreak, he might have to order the first mandatory evacuation in...
