thick-with-irony abortion rally
bunnie diehl provides great coverage of last weekend’s abortion rally. here is her intro:
I headed down to the March for Women’s (Right To Take) Lives today. Within a few blocks I was so disgusted that I felt like throwing up.
There’s nothing like being confronted with hundreds of thousands of the angriest, most […]
True American Hero
As most have heard, Pat Tillman was killed while serving our country in Afghanistan.
Tillman, an American hero
“Pat Tillman, 27, enlisted in the Army shortly after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, walking away from a 3-year, $3.6 million contract extension with the Arizona Cardinals.”
Remembering Pat Tillman
Among those who have commented on Tillman’s death (see link):

More Proof of God’s Existence
Michael Jackson indicted.
no ’stairway’! denied!
if you thought chernobyl was scary, check out led zeppelin’s “stairway to heaven” backwards.
religion of _________ (fill in the blank)
In a very useful attempt to track the aggression of militant Islam, Jos Smith of the Dutch business newspaper NRC Handelsblad has compiled a list of 393 major jihadist attacks around the world since September 11, 2001. The newspaper page requires a password, so I have posted the chart.
The list counts 7,085 dead and 10,132 […]

2) A toolbar with a “Diary” feature. Allowing you to take notes on specific web pages […]

yesterday i was on campus writing a paper. someone had put up some signs supporting palestine in the hallway of the humanities building. the signs charge israel with terrorism. specifically, they charge the israeli military with targeting palestinian youth. i think we can all agree that would be an atrocity if […]
mad cow disease
would this be an instance of it?
variations on a theme
the phrase, “guns don’t kill people, people kill people” has lots of practical applications. [see here] (a google search for the phrase, minus “guns”). on the first page of results, a slew of variations appear, seeking to excuse each of the following–vans, motorcycles, roads, toddlers, books, and goths. however, my favorite variation […]
another jihad rut
members of the religion of peace have added another element to the ‘daily grind’ of terrorism, to be joked about around the jihad water cooler. that is:
kidnapping!
jihadis! they just keep inventing new and exciting ways to terrorize people! having, perhaps, grown tired of their most well-known method they have moved on. […]
chernobyl
chernobyl, now a ghost town, freaks me out. the unreal story and pictures are here
**update** chernobyl still freaks me out, but the story by the woman in the above link is allegedly fake. see here: [link]
it’s that time again
well, it’s time for a couple of things.
one, the NHL playoffs. if you don’t have time to watch the games live, i recommend watching highlights here. it sure beats ESPN sportscenter, where we get 10 seconds of highlights talked-over by some dude who sounds like he doesn’t know a sports fan […]
phil mickelson
1 for 43 never felt so good.
