The Vikings release the plans for a new stadium. I suggest the name The Vomitorium. At least that would be truth in advertising. Now the Vikings can stink in style....

California Conservative

This site was ref'ed in the previous post, and the Chief took a look at the rest of it, and saw several interesting posts there, and some good writing:

Like many tourists, I was drawn to the careless fantasy that was New Orleans, reveling in the booze, food, and jazz without a second thought for tomorrow. But tomorrow always came, and once the throbbing haze of Pat O?Brien?s finally subsided, I thankfully returned to my family, career, and responsibilities.

The problem with binge fantasies is that the devil eventually shows up like a back alley loan shark to collect his fee. For some it?s monetary, while others are crippled by something akin to metal pipe across the knees. For New Orleans, the devil came in the form of Katrina, who in her own big easy form, pirouetted lazily across the Caribbean and Florida to a city where today?s troubles could always wait for tomorrow.

1.) Stage a "protest." 2.) Willfully ignore the paperwork and permits such a thing requires. 3.) Call the cops fascists and behave like stinking lunatics when they show up to shut you down. 4.) Soak in the fluffy, puffy, glorious...

As the confirmation of John Roberts draws near, we're beginning to see how Democrats and Republicans will vote for him. Most of us figured that the Dems would play nice with Roberts and stifle the next nominee, all the while...

Outcome of Vote Still Pending

There's been a fair amount of coverage of this, but the Chief's impression is that it isn't a very high level on the American interest meter.

Daily Demarche comments on this, with some reflections that seem to parallel the above. Since he is from the diplo-world, the Chief thinks that thee is some credibility there. He makes about as much sense out of the situation over there as anyone else could, with some suitable pithy comments comparing the situation to Florida in 2000.

It would be nice to see Schoder lose - but if not, things won't get any worse than they already are. Deutschland uber alles? Nein!

The Rapid City Journal has a brief piece by Celeste Calvitto on Johnson's decision to support John Roberts.The individual he (Roberts) is going to replace was a very conservative member of the court, so his confirmation does not change the...
