Everyone’ll be packin’.

The Professor speaks on an international right to bear arms, but with a twist — they’re protection against genocide.
Exactly the reason I’m armed. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: They’re not going to drag me off to the gas chamber like they did my Austrian relatives. The fact that having weapons is also protection against random idiots who try to break into my home is just icing on the cake.

Interesting analysis…

of the latest Zogby polls by Patrick Ruffini (link via the Professor). Frankly, when I checked the polls yesterday over at RealClearPolitics, they didn’t seem to make a damn bit of sense when contrasted with other polling outlets. Ruffini is saying the same think I was thinking at the time, except that I didn’t tie the polling Zogby to his anti-Semitic brother, who writes for the Arab News and pops up every now and then as a talking head plumping for the Palestinians.
If this is true, I probably won’t ever trust a Zogby poll again. Not that I trust polls to start with.

VERY busy

Sorry for lack of postings. Maybe a few later.
Nice day for the Dow and Nasdaq.
AOL’s still in the tank. Maybe I should buy some shares at $12. (Should have bought them last week at $7, but I’m a coward when it comes to investments.)

The search engines keep coming…

Not so far as I know. He doesn’t get a mention in Dwight Smith’s history of Indiana Freemasonry and I’ve never seen him in any lists of famous Freemasons I’ve encountered.
