I see where Garry Trudeau (great Canadian name…maybe he should relocate his sorry ass), the King of Recycled Comic Strips, is rerunning some of his 2001 Enron strips. That dog don’t hunt no more, comrade.
Unfortunately I’m talking about the dead strips on tree — er, sorry, Freudian slip, the “strips on dead tree”, not the ones online, so I don’t have a link for you.
But talk about a guy who should have given up years ago. He’s not even funny when he tries to be, anymore.

but man, that’s got the potential to be cool.

Oh, and in the process of installing the LJ, I knocked the power cord loose from the Linux box, which is why the blog has been down for a few hours — I just noticed it when I sat down and tried to log in. Oh well.

…too busy today. Go take a look at this blog while you’re waiting for more from my keyboard.
I might post later but I might not.

Scalia is speaking out about these recent stupid church/state decisions.

I read this book, cover to cover, and it made a GREAT deal of sense to me. I wish my dad had lived long enough to read it, because he would have been nodding thoughtfully throughout, and saying, “I was saying that thirty years ago but nobody would listen to me.”
Global warming, my ass. I still remember global cooling. And where I live at the moment, I’m a lot more ready to believe the latter than I am the former.
