Because We're Too Busy Stockpiling Firearms to Use Them

Phillip Adams wonders in print why more US President's aren't assassinated, given that the "majority" of Americans are crazy and own a lot of guns. This may be the stupidest thing ever put into writing and, given the source, that's...
The Baseball Body Blow

I still can't get last night's NLCS game out of my mind. Albert Pujols inflicted more damage on the Houston baseball psyche than the law ought to allow. The sound of that stadium when that bomb he hit ricocheted off...
Politicians: "I tax, therefore I am."

eBay Nation and the Golden Goose

Let's all have a rousing rendition of the old Beatles song TAXMAN!

Okay, not long ago I wrote a column noting that eBay was catching up to WalMart as America's largest employer. I guess that was the kiss of death. At least, now I learn that North Dakota may require people who sell on eBay or other online "auction" sites to get an auctioneer's license.

What a piece of crapola! Read the whole article. Even if it's from the Alliance designated enemy Glenn, it's well worth checking out, since experience teaches that any method one politician figurees out toe increase the take, will rapidly act like a virulent virus and spread to lots of others always on the lookout for an excuse to take a more of our money.

If North Dakota swallows this, it's sure evidence that the weather up there has caused massive brain freeze in the state governmen up there.

A Surprising Confluence of Events Around Errol Morris

Recently I added a bunch of Errol Morris films to my Netflix queue, and have enjoyed what I've seen a great deal. He's one of those filmmakers that I've always heard a lot about, but for one reason or another...

Touchdown Jesus Angered By Failed Prognosticator

With the exception of the Texas-CU game, my morning picks failed. USC 34, ND 31: Unbelievable. Leinart blunders his way into the endzone with 0:03 left in the game. My loathing of USC continues unabated. Texas 42, CU 17: The...
Aviator Found in Glacier

Body chipped from glacier likely a WWII airman

The only problem the Chief has with this is NOT the factual circumstances of the story itself, but rather with the journalistic caution.

"...Likely a WWII Airman."

Well now. This is hard. Human remains were found in a cake of ice. 13000 ft up the mountainside. Wearing WWII Army uniform, flight suit, and parachute. Had obviously been up there for some period of time. NOW - what are the possibilities. WWI, WWII, Korea, Viet-nam era, or Civilian?

Hmmmmmm? (Think, think!) A WWII outfit? Well now, we can say he was
"...Likely a WWII Airman." Phew! Anything to avoid coming to a simple conclusion based on clear factual evidence, which might set a bad journalistic precedent for the rest of the media.

In fairness, the DC Times is generally a cut above the rest of the MSM - but this is NOT one of their higher moments - maybe that's why it struck my attention.

South Dakota and National NAEP Results

New results are in from the National Assessment of Education Progress (NAEP). Results are mixed. You can look at state results here, and then gain more details at the offical NAEP site here. First, let's look at South Dakota. That's...
