Fun with economics homework. Just trust me. A history of the Korean Civil War as told through breakdancing–except this one has a happy, unified ending. Aw, sleepy kitty. Speaking of cats, this is straight up horrifying….but unbelievably funny. Finally, in dishonor of the Sex and the City movie, I present to you, Sarah Jessica Parker [...]

So I got my half-assed wish, and the Libertarian Party nominated Bob Barr at their convention last weekend. That’s nice, but really I only wanted him to win the nomination, so that I never have to say the words “President McCain”. Now I’m starting to wonder if I can actually vote for the guy. Here [...]
Way back in December, I presented some evidence that Jean-Paul Gaster, the drummer of the metal band Clutch had donated money to Ron Paul. I couldn’t confirm it at the time but said I would try when the official fourth quarter numbers were released. Well, I never did that, but I went you one better: [...]
Unbeknownst to most ordinary people, the Libertarian Party is having its convention in Denver this weekend, and it has all the makings for the craziest one yet, which considering this guy is a regular party fixture is saying a hell of a lot. There are a ton of people seeking the LP’s presidential nomination, but [...]
From CNN: The House overwhelmingly rejected President Bush’s veto of a $290 billion farm bill Wednesday, but what was to have been a stinging defeat for the president became an embarrassing episode for Democrats. Only hours before the House’s 316-108 vote, Bush had vetoed the five-year measure, saying it was too expensive and gave too [...]
If you don’t know who John Yoo is, you should. He is the law professor, who spent some time at the Justice Department and while there wrote some rather infamous memos arguing, among other things, that something only counted as torture if it caused organ failure or death and that Congress has no authority to [...]
You have no idea how viscerally I object to this potential Hollywood turd. Just for the record, from what I’ve read of the script and seen of the location photos, this guy has just about everything about Poplar Bluff wrong, and, frankly, I doubt that he’s ever been there. And yes, that does anger me [...]
God, I wish they still made commercials like this. (Via LRC.) Here is what a truthful ad for a college would look like. There is only one word to describe these Seattle Supersonics ads: Nutso. Finally, something that isn’t a commercial. This video of Chris Matthews exposes conservative talk radio host Kevin James as a [...]
Since I haven’t been blogging at my regular pace for the past several months, I have built up a bit of a backlog of things to blog about. The good news here is that this should all be really quality stuff because otherwise it would just be old news by now and not worth talking [...]
This Friday’s links comes with the good news that I’m now done with school until August, so regular blogging will resume Monday. Well, I’ve found my candidates for November. Some guy from my alma mater–who doesn’t play organized basketball, mind you–has somehow managed to register for the NBA draft. If you’ve ever wanted to see [...]
