Things I don’t want to hear again
I could do without hearing the following statements, ever again: :: “It’s all part of God’s plan.” (Gee, when I was in management, I was always told that planning had to flexible. Joe Schmoe the manager at Pizza Hut has … Continue reading

I hate our political discourse.
[I feel like ranting about politics a bit, so rant I shall. Move on if you don’t like it when I get in this mood.] I don’t read Glenn Greenwald all that much anymore these days, primarily because it gets … Continue reading

GAAAAAAAAAA!
Yes, I’m going to complain about American Idol. Scroll past this if you’d prefer to believe that a smart and level-headed fellow like myself shouldn’t be watching such pop tripe. Melinda Doolittle blows Blake off the stage every time she … Continue reading

I often think that the Right in this country is living in some kind of dream world, and the reason why is stuff like this idiotic thought by John Derbyshire: As NRO’s designated chickenhawk, let me be the one to … Continue reading
