  • Create a Podcast

    Just a heads up that my podcasting course launches tomorrow. Full info at: http://podcastingbootcamp.com/

  • Holy Wood by Marilyn Manson

    I’m in another one of those listen to songs repeatedly phases. This time with select songs from Marilyn Manson’s Holy Wood. I always like Suck’s analysis of Manson’s branding acumen. Maybe I have no taste… but I do like these few snatches of lyrics: and I’m not a slave to a god that doesn’t exist […]

  • Jeff Gannon Continues Martyrdom

    What a ‘wounded bird’: [A] professor of journalism at Washington & Lee University, has determined that I am a propagandist because I reported exactly what the White House said about its position on an issue without putting a spin on it. Actually – you didn’t un-spin the news. You essentially took White House press releases […]

  • FL Judge Ignores Law, Forces 13 Year Old to Have Baby

    A pregnant 13-year-old girl in Florida has been told she cannot have an abortion because she lacks the maturity to make such a decision.

  • So Much to Do!

    Whew! I have so much to say, so much to share and so much to get cleared out of the way! Trip home went fine: Mullet sitings: 2 (concurrent, father-son). Within 5 minutes of stepping off plane. On Louisville Airport entrance doors: NO FIREARMS (we’ve got conceal/carry) Regional hobby: obesity and petrol consumption. Cake: 1, […]

    Anybody else catch Larry King tonight? MP3 File

  • Microsoft Pulls Support for Gay Rights

    The Antioch Bible Church (slogan: Black and White in a Grey World) has pressured multi-billion dollar Borg Microsoft: [T]he $37-billion Redmond-based software behemoth quietly withdrew its support for House bill 1515, the anti-gay-discrimination bill currently under consideration by the Washington State legislature, after being pressured by the Evangelical Christian pastor of a suburban megachurch. Megachurch? […]

  • Santorum Wants to Pull Plug on Federal Weather

    Wonder-douche Rick Santorum has introduced a bill that would prohibit federal meteorologists from competing with companies such as AccuWeather and The Weather Channel, which offer their own forecasts through paid services and free ad-supported Web sites. Mr. Frothy strikes again! Inklings of this back in January’s New York Times.
