That’s right, we made it all up.
New Year’s Resolution: To no longer acknowledge, other than by denigration, the travesty known as Kwanzaa.
The revealing science of God?
(With apologies for the title, taken from a particularly ugly bit of Yes bloat-o-rama from the 1970’s.) Chris has posted an entry regarding Antony Flew’s change of heart regarding a/theism. I found this incredibly interesting, especially given my own philosophical musings of late. Particularly fascinating, perhaps even eerily familiar, given …
Throwing the baby out with the bathwater.
Michael Tiemann, CTO of Red Hat, writes about the effects of recent US Customs policy change. Although I’m not sure how contributing to EPIC really helps this case, seeing as how they are regularly dismissed by government security bureaucrats as paranoiacs and assorted nutballs, it’s obvious that this policy is …
WMD or no WMD.
This article is a grisly reminder of why the war in Iraq was justified on more than simply grounds of whether Saddam Hussein had a ready stockpile of weapons of mass destruction. Now, however, what are we to do with Sudan?
There’s a reason the hat is red.
As much as I love Red Hat and Fedora, there are many reasons why I don’t look for a job there. Admittedly, most of these people are Fedora community folks, but most of the Red Hatters I’ve met are proud lefties. Hey, to each his own.

It’s in the bag.
As I hit the hay last night at around 1:30 a.m., Mary Beth Cahill was making an asinine statement vastly overestimating the number of provisional, overseas, and military ballots still to count in Ohio. This morning, with 100% of the precincts reporting, President Bush is ahead in Ohio by about …
Exit poll hysteria.
Zogby has data updated as of lunchtime today, but their map, confusingly enough, shows Virginia (!) up for grabs, despite the fact that Virginia has gone solidly Republican in every election in my lifetime, and Ohio and Florida firmly in Bush territory, despite word that both of those states have …
Seriously.
Get out and vote today, but remember to GET INFORMED first. Don’t let Michael Moore, FOX News, Dan Rather, or Ann Coulter shoulder your responsibility to think seriously about what you believe, and to get the facts about the candidates’ platforms.
