Enjoy! It might be 8 days into the New Year, but the late Harry Browne’s libertarian New Year’s resolutions are an excellent read.  It would be super cool if more people would remember these. On a related note, The Cato Institute put up a small blurb on the “libertarian surge“; I wasn’t feelin’ the blockquote, [...]

I don’t know Mike. I’ve interacted with him once on twice on the internetz, but that’s it. I know that he is asking for this info to be widely distributed to both get the information out and so there are multiple copies floating around cyber-space. To all who pledged to support me in this matter, [...]

This was originally directed to the Zombama/Obamatron 4000/Barackobot who is now running my unversity’s chapter of College Democrats.

Enjoy! To kick things off, go visit Lauren at Oh Dear Lauren.com, a collection of open letters she’s written to various individuals, entities, random objects, and body parts. Arkansas Fire Chief Don Payne launches into a long overdue tirade about police abuse of power while fighting multiple traffic tickets in court.  The police response?  Shooting [...]

Enjoy! I absolutely, 100% must have Star Wars chopsticks for all of my chopstick eating needs. I can’t believe I forgot this article last time, but in Famous Last High School Bitches: A Rant, Michelle Dean wonders where all the Darlene Conners, Angela Chases, and Blossom Russos went. In completely unpredictable news: Ron Paul is [...]

Enjoy! A Malaysian model has been sentenced to a caning for drinking a beer at her Singapore hotel. The law prevents Muslims from drinking alcohol.  Yay for religion! Holy shit: a cop was actual fired for being a douchebag.  Don’t worry, no one was tased and no dogs were shot: they simply asked a waitress [...]
