A totally biased and unreasonable list of blogs that I think you might enjoy reading.
…just like the rotation of the Earth could play a role in tomorrow’s sunrise.
This came up in the lively thread at Too Conservative and also at Operative Word (well worth reading them both): Ya think anyone might be gearing up to use today’s vote as a campaign issue?
I’m gonna say … probably.
Check that: What I [...]

It’s looking very good for Saxby Chambliss to become the 41st Republican senator in the upcoming session.
Click here to follow the results at the AJC blog. Just keep hitting F5.
He’s running much stronger than he did in the general election.
If Chambliss does win in a landslide, let me be the first to say: Thanks, Sarah.
UPDATE: [...]
Some of our readers have gotten their wish: Five members of the Loudoun County Board of Supervisors told the Washington Redskins to f— off, and are instead sending the marketing dollars for “hospitality training” to support the Journey Through Hallowed Grounds.
I’m sure that is going to pay off in spades, because all sorts of people [...]

Firearm quick hits:
Not too shabby. Go over to Classic Arms right now and you’ll see that freedom is alive and well in America.
Of particular note, in my view, are the AR-15s for $719.95 - I got to shoot ACTivist’s (which he purchased for a tad better price about two months ago, but that’s life in [...]
Another quick-hit potential conversation starter:
If President Obama overreaches, we should pummel him for it and march on Washington if necessary. But he is our QB now, so as Americans we must allow him to begin his presidency with assurance that we have his back.
Prior to the 2008 elections, progressives projected onto Barack Obama their hopes [...]
Jeez Louise, fresh content is going to be a serious struggle here for the next few weeks because I have a real-world project taking up all my time.
Music videos are getting boring, so let’s try a run of short and sweet conversation starters this week and see if any of them take off.
First up: All [...]
In the greater Washington DC metropolitan area there is no more potent brand name than the Washington Redskins. But it goes further than that. For decades in our nation’s history, through the Roosevelt, Truman, Eisenhower and Kennedy administrations - before most of the Baby Boomers had entered kindergarten - the Redskins were the preeminent “local” [...]
I know after the blitzkrieg we fell under conservatives are aghast, wondering “Who were those guys and what are they going to do next?”
Is there anything Moveon.org can’t accomplish?
Well I hate to be the bearer of terrifying news, but Moveon is not going away. They are moving forward!
This video was captured by a New York [...]

How interesting is this? That tool bag that one of the astronauts dropped into space while doing repairs to the International Space Station (ISS) is now being followed by amateur astronomers using binoculors and small telescopes.
You can join in the fun by typing in your zip code here. Unless you live in a missile silo, [...]
It has been a busy Friday in the city of Mumbai, India following a night of arrests and continued fighting.
Latest photos and video at India Times.
Much of the Taj Heritage Hotel has been cleared but gunshots continue and at least one terrorist is reportedly holed up with hostages in one of the buildings.
The Indian Navy [...]
Some eccentric flavors. I am turning the dial back before the Internet and, really, before the video age. There was not much video recorded by any of these, which is a real shame.
Ry Cooder. His “Paradise and Lunch” should be on any top ten list of American folk blues albums.
Leon Redbone. Master of the craft [...]
Taking it up to another level, folks.
It just happens that possibly the best band of the 1970s, Gentle Giant, is represented on YouTube in gloriously extravagant fashion. I have no idea why, but extremely high quality videos of these guys have survived. It’s a total anomaly because Gentle Giant was out of the mainstream, and [...]
Jiminy Christmas is this crowd hard to please. You think you found some nice music so you post it up for everyone to listen to if they want and whaddaya know suddenly everybody’s a critic - a bunch of real artsy snob types if you ask me.
So ok, I am up to the challenge. I [...]
There is no news on the front pages that I care enough to write about, and I am too busy with a work project to go digging … so here are a bunch of videos compiled mostly during September late at night under the influence of resveratrol.
Stones at their best: Dead Flowers
Slightly cheesy music video [...]
The election of Barack Obama has done as much to further gun ownership in America as would Chinese troops coming ashore in Long Beach. This is no judgment on the President-elect but a simple statement of fact about consumer behavior. Prices are jacked up and inventories empty all around the Internet, gun shops are having [...]
Not one to avoid controversy for long, Alaska Governor and former Vice Presidential Candidate Sarah Palin is back in the news for an interview she gave at a location that was possibly not thoroughly vetted by her public relations staff.
As Palin nonchalantly fielded questions from reporters in an ad hoc press opportunity on the occasion [...]

For all who are freaking out …
Nice story. Romo paid his way in, called him over to sit with him, said he didn’t mind the smell.
UPDATE: More Romo acts of kindness. Hey, however our season turns out, this type of thing is good to know.
UPDATE II: It’s something atypical for an NFL player (especially a Cowboy): making positive headlines.
UPDATE III: With [...]
That’s not exactly what he’s saying. Literally, what he’s saying is
As we move towards solving the climate crisis, we need to remember the consequences to civilizations that refused to take environmental concerns seriously.
BUT, there is a trick, you see … this is Al Gore, and the first rule of translating Al Gore is: Al [...]
