I keep seeing headline after headline that says something along the lines of, “U.S. troops kill (fill in the number) suspected insurgents (or suspected terrorists)”.

So I had been having a run of bad luck at the poker tables. Every book I’ve read says that it happens to the best of them and that you should expect it to happen to you.
That’s easy to read, but hard to deal with.
I had so many bad beats in which I got [...]

So I am the #1 site for the Google search “I hate Home Depot“.
It is the single most commented post I have ever made (by 20 or more) and I get a new comment every couple of days now. Having the juice gives the thing a life of it’s own, I reckon. Which [...]

I have thought about doing this post for some time and have just never gotten around to it.
There is a comment in an old post of mine that I have to call bs on. This was the post and here is the comment:
Fair enough if the Honda is saving you money but your eco [...]

This story has given me quite a tickle. Let me quote the gist of it:
Canadian troops fighting Taliban militants in
Afghanistan have stumbled across an unexpected and potent enemy — almost impenetrable forests of 10-feet-high marijuana plants.
Now, I live in a city with an Army base (Fort Gordon), so I’ve met some G.I.s in my [...]

If you never read the blog entitled Latigo Flint, Quickdraw, you never read anything worth glancing at.
In fact, if you can read this post without losing a bit of your sanity (and being happy to see it go), then I will send you my personal copy of About Behaviorism by B.F. Skinner. That’s a [...]

I was just perusing through my favorite site full of rabid left-wingers (daily kos) who want crazy leftist nuttiness like equality and peace and all sorts of other commie crap.
John Edwards had put up a diary there just asking people to ask questions and some of his replies were absolutely beautiful. Concise, well-written and [...]
