Oil up! Freak out! Dow up? Shut up!

Fri, 18 Apr 2008 13:28:14 PDT
The state-run media in Canada (and the citizen-owned media who do their best to compete with them) all lament, daily (with intra-day lament updates, all day long), the price of a barrel of oil, and the resulting price of gas. (Of course they don’t have the foggiest clue what they’re talking about, but they pretend they do.) Even as I was writing this, the state-owned CBC did a story about the latest rise in gas prices. Apparently it’s getting higher. You can tell because they const

Sun, 27 Apr 2008 06:48:30 PDT
By KARALEE MILLER From feminine florals to brilliant brights, this season's handbag trends run the style spectrum. "There really isn't an 'it' bag anymore," says Nicole Phelps, executive editor of Style.com, the online home of Vogue and W magazines. That means more options for women looking to add to their handbag collections. So, while there's no one dominant trend, there are several ...

Obama Calls Bloggers Liars

Sun, 27 Apr 2008 12:30:18 PDT
UPDATES below, Obama/Rezko, other donors. *** Barack Obama calls bloggers liars. Hey Barack--don't your sainted words mean things? Are they so empty you can just say whatever you want when you want, even LIE whenever you want? Even lie at a recent debate where at least 10 million people watched you, when you said: "I have never said that I don't wear flag pins or refuse to wear flag pins," he said in response to a voter's videotaped question. "This is the kind of manufactured issue that our poli

Rotten Timing of Bands and Heart Attacks

Sat, 19 Apr 2008 12:12:04 PDT
Diary time again. Wednesday afternoon, I ended up doing something I had never done before, and the only reason was because the Pope was visiting America. Normally, I would be indifferent to such a thing, and it was exactly my complete indifference that drove me to this point. You see, when I eat lunch in my house, I eat in my living room, usually around 12.30 or 1.00, while I watch television, often the news. It's usually the only television I watch in the course of a day, unless it's Thursday,

Donate for Watchtower Blood Lawsuit

Sun, 27 Apr 2008 09:52:11 PDT
I’ve made a donation myself and I hope that you can send any amount via PayPal or postal service. It’s a reasonable fund-raising goal and I think it is very important to support this case. One man against the whole legal apparatus of the Watchtower Society is facing a hard road but there is a chance here for some amount of accountability. Here is the letter from Barbara Anderson: Dear Friends, For those unfamiliar with Lawrence Hughes, he’s a 55-year-old Canadian (Calgary, Alberta) architectu
