Another day of SPP talks and protests, another mindboggling quote from CCCE president Thomas D’Aquino. In reference to the protesters’ displeasure at the fact that elected representatives and the public aren’t being consulted on the SPP, he said:
I do not say to myself, ‘If I don’t get an hour with the prime minister in the […]

I have a lot more photos from the protest here, so check them out.
The media can’t really explain it. The governments of three countries have been very vague about it, to the point where most elected representatives don’t know what it is. And yet, some people seem rather upset about it.

I love this. How often is the father in a commercial the one clearing away the dishes and lecturing the kid about finishing their dinner, while the fun-loving mother acts like a child to get dessert? No doubt MRA types would see nothing in this but an affirmation that women are irresponsible and immature and […]

Been sparse offerings from ye olde punkass marc lately, I know. But I’ve been switching careers the last few months, which has been a *bit* hectic.
Now I make a short weekly fantasy football show. For a living.
Bet you weren’t expecting that one!

Sure, you can tell your kids that it’s a reflection off the ocean, but this will really get them to shut the hell up.
Both colors are a result of light scattering, or when light hits something that can reflect it back in many directions. This is the difference between a nicely polished mirror and […]

WalMart’s getting the critical-size Wall Street jitters:

The company’s growth rate has slowed to a crawl, overtaken by rivals once thought to be no match for the “beast of Bentonville.”
which is why they’ve been absolutely delusional for the past few years.
Blah, blah, blah, poor people are already buying as much as they can, rich people wouldn’t […]

In the immortal words of Barry Goldwater, it’s hard out here for a pimp.
Despite pimping their unfounded fears and their unjust wars and their ignorance-as-education agenda, The Powers That Be haven’t had much luck sexing up their Q Scores. In fact, they’re more unpopular than ever. Old friends are threatening to form their […]

Boundless Webzine, where Focus on the Family focuses on the young and the awesome, answers all of your most burning questions, including the sensitive topic: if you’re engaged and know that you are going to get some, just how much of a sin is it to think about the practical issues of gettin’ some?
I am […]

I’m off as of Monday on vacation (I’ll be back the following week with, I hope, fascinating tales of Homeland Security and the SPP protests). In the meantime, here’s some reading material:
Baghdad without water.
You know the whole “you broke it, you bought it” Iraq war theory that’s popular amongst Sensible LiberalsTM? The invasion might have […]

Those godless secular school boards are at it again! A New York City school principal has been fired for trying to bring religion into the school.*
Anyway, I expected the usual bleaters to be up in arms and leaping to this woman’s defense. After all, we all know that school violence is caused by a lack […]
