Some of you have undoubtedly heard about the skinheads who beat up and tortured a Mexican boy nearly to death in Spring. This happened in a reasonably nice neighborhood. Disgusting little fuckers, aren’t they? There are so many mental defectives involved in this hideous event that it’s hard to know where to begin unraveling it….

Judge: I’m Your Dictionary
From CNN.com: On Friday, U.S. District Judge Leonie Brinkema reminded jurors to avoid looking up words in the dictionary after learning a juror researched the definition of “aggravating.” The jury is balancing “aggravating” and “mitigating” factors to determine whether Moussaoui should be executed or spend the rest of his life in prison for his role…
Why Seperation of Church and State is a Good Thing
Can you imagine a debate over whether women should be allowed into a baseball game in this country? It’s happening right now in Iran. Wacky. I don’t think I’ll ever be able to understand why people follow leaders whose objectives are so nonsensical. For the sake of logic, I almost hope its because the ayatollahs…
Funny Stuff!
This was so funny that I had to re-start the blog just to have a place to put it. Thanks to David Broussard for sending this. COWS Is it just me, or does anyone else find it amazing that our government can track a cow born in Canada almost three years ago, right to the…
ID vs. Evolution
There’s a new movie called “Flock of Dodos” that’s beginning to make the rounds that I think I’d like to see – not that it will make it anywhere near me any time soon. Here’s another clip on it. Last year I read a book called “A Short History of Nearly Everything” by Bill Bryson…
Censored Pic
Since this picture of “Muhammed the Mad Bomber” by Kurt Westergaard seems to be disappearing from the Internet, at least in its original form, I thought I would keep it alive in a small way. I suppose a clever denounciation of religious fanaticism would be in order as well, but no one who thinks that…
The Wisdom of Guy Kawasaki
I’ve been reading this cat’s blog since he started recently and Guy has some interesting things to say on the topic of venture capital and entreprenuership. Here’s a snippet of wisdom from a recent post that I found validating: If you think someone is an orifice, everyone else does too. When I met people that…
Right To Die?
I’ve been mostly posting personal notes and whatnot lately because it’s easier (!) and probably more interesting to my few readers. But a good thing happened today and though it’s undoubtedly all over the news, I thought I’d discuss the Supreme Court’s ruling on assisted suicide. The question that big-government advocates like to ask is…
Microsoft Idiotic, Duplicitous
The recent case of Kai-Fu Lee, a Microsoft VP who dared to leave MS for Google has a temporary conclusion: A former Microsoft Corp. executive who defected to Google Inc. cannot immediately perform the job Google hired him to do, a judge ruled Thursday, saying Microsoft has a well-grounded fear that leaked trade secrets could…
Our Next President?
If Bill Frist becomes President, would we start calling him “Slick Willie”, too? I’d never heard of the guy until Trent Lott made the P.C. crowd made by praising Strom Thurmond, but now Frist’s taking on W on stem cell research! Says Jill Zuckman of the Chicago Tribune. Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist’s announcement Friday…
