I’m going there this summer. Let the clichés begin.
Well that could have gone better…

I had two essays due for Friday, neither of which I handed in. However, I had heard it told, from no less than the Philosophy Department’s head, that if you simply turn up early in Monday morning and slide the damn thing under the correct lecturer’s door then no-one’s the wiser. So anyway, I wrote [...]

This is my new favourite TV show.
Stormy from Sealab 2021 Pwns Bill O’Reilly
Posted on February 22, 2007 - Filed Under American Politics, Media | 2 Comments
This seems to be from around the time of the airliner terror-plot arrests in Britain. O’Reilly invited Laura Schwartz and Ellis Henican, both ‘liberals’ in the American political vernacular, on to his show to discuss some silly remarks made by an idiotic far-left radio show host and ended up having to back track and generally [...]
America and Iran

The blogosphere and the old media are both awash with speculation about a possible US strike on Iran, so I’ll give my thoughts on the matter here. I’m in no way qualified to pronounce on such affairs, but what the hell, that’s never stopped Fox News. The first thing I’ll say is that I can’t [...]

This is what George W Bush said to former Israeli PM Ariel Sharon when speaking about Osama Bin Laden, according to this review of a Sharon biography, which I found through the daily Doonesbury page on Slate. I’m not sure what to make of it really. It confirms Bush’s reputation as a straight talker (or [...]
New Nine Inch Nails Album
Posted on February 18, 2007 - Filed Under Music | 4 Comments
It’s a few years early, based on usual gestation periods for anything Trent Reznor makes, and is scheduled for release on April 17th 2007. You can hear 2 tracks from it here on the Nine Inch Nails MySpace page, an it’s called ‘Year Zero’. My early impression is that it could have done with more [...]
Some People Are Unbelievable

From a comment left on this blog after a post abput Al Gore’s documentary ‘An Inconvenient Truth’: Al Bore’s so-called documentary is a myth. He is from the same cloth as the lefties of the 60’s and 70’s who tried to scare us with over population and food shortages by 2000. Well here it is [...]

Hillary Clinton & Iraq
Posted on February 15, 2007 - Filed Under American Politics | Leave a Comment
There’s an interesting assessment of Hillary Clinton’s intransigence on the Iraq war and, how it will affect her ’08 presidential bid, here on the Daily Kos. Essentially, Clinton is taking all kinds of heat from the left-wing of the Democratic Party for not admitting that her vote in favour of going to war with Iraq [...]
The Roman Legionnaire’s Helmet Explained

There’s an explanation for Garry Trudeau’s depiction of President Bush as a floating helmet posted here on the Doonesbury section of Slate. I had been pondering the exact meaning of it for some time.

Ann Coulter’s Measured Appraisal of the Liberal Media

“On MSNBC they’re covering the [Libby] trial like it’s the Normandy Invasion, starring Elvis Presley, as told by Joseph Goebbels.” “My only regret with Timothy McVeigh is he did not go to the New York Times Building.” “The New York Times editorial page is like a Ouija board that has only three answers, no matter [...]
A Half-Glass-Full Kind of Post

I was going to blog about all the things that are conspiring to depress me at the moment, but I doubt that anyone wants to read about such matters and so instead here’s a post about some stuff that I have good things to say about. 1. Doonesbury. Garry Trudeau’s hilarious & widely syndicated cartoon [...]
