I propose a variation on the "Trading Places" movie from many years ago that starred Eddie Murphy...

I tried to get through a Jonah Goldberg column this morning. It's a semi-regular exercise in futility I try when his columns appear in the Chronicle. For those that want to try the same game I will give you a leg up here. Since most of you likely don't have the stomach for it, I'll provide the reader's digest version.The source of frustration began with the whole story that Mitt Romney supposedly hazed a fellow...
My soldier had confirmation last week that he would indeed be deploying to Afghanistan next year. Bear in mind that we are supposedly going through a 'drawdown' in Afghanistan through 2014. But then again, we've now signed an agreement with Afghanistan to help them 'police' things for ten years (at least) after that.When will we figure it out?Did you know that one of the largest deposits of lithium in the world is supposedly in Afghanistan?...
Forgive me for cross-posting, but this is an issue about which I feel rather strongly these days.You won't get his on network news, so I feel rather obligated to show it here. If you have a delicate stomach, read it anyway.http://www.untilmysoncomeshome.com/2012/03/john-lindsey-et-al-how-do-you-sleep-at.htmlOh by the way, this contains graphic content. As Lindsey Graham would say, you just need to push through it....
Good article about our import/export imbalance of oil. The fact that O'Reilly is wrong about oil supply shouldn't be surprising to anyone since he's wrong on most everything else.http://www.theoildrum.com/node/8981#more...
I'm already so sick the constant Perry Watch, and it's only August 2011. We may have to get through MONTHS of this. If you do even a modicum of research, you'll find an interesting article about "Brain Biases & News" and see that people who are deemed attractive by our shallow US standards generally are considered Teflon-coated and given a "pass" on many things. (http://www.brainbiases.com/2008/11/beautiful-people-bias.html) That's one reason Sarah Palin won't go away, and why we're going...

This is one of those stories that makes you do a double take. Domonique Ramirez (the reigning Ms. San Antonio) was recently reinstated as Ms. San Antonio. The jury ended a bizarre case where the pageant tried unsuccessfully to argue that they had cause to dethrone Ramirez. The pageant argued that she did not show up on time to appointments and was otherwise derelict in her duties. Trace back any beauty queen that is removed and...
