Protein Wisdom, for a
Maloney-level smackdown of moonbat academia.
But one that contains that evil Goldstein flair, and exploits his ability to blend in, as it were, with the locals.

It Turns Out
. . . that Michael Moore's adjustment at the Pritikin Center has been a bit . . .
rocky. And I don't mean that like Rocky Road Ice Cream.
UPDATE: A weaker woman would be shamefaced. Not me: I simply proclaim myself Queen of the Broken Link, and challenge my readers to supply their own links. In this case Desert Cat found the correct one, but with all this reader participation, someone's eventually bound to find a page that's better than the one I had in mind.
Hey! Let's light candles, put flowers in our hair, and sing Kumbayah.

Good guess. Actually, I tried hfre instead of href. Which I don't recommend.
But think of all the ways I'm successfully identifying to
not make a working link!

(When he sent the link 'round to the Bear Flag League, it was marked "For Boys Only. No Gurlz Allowed." I'm assuming the females read it faster than the males did, human nature being what it is.)

I'd say it's high time someone write a "tagchecker" program, similar to spellchecker--it could highlight broken tags or unrecognized html with wavy green or red lines, similar to the spelling and grammar check in Word.
Or for more serious html, (like fiddling with a template), one could click on a starting tag, and the program would highlight everything up to the corresponding closing tag, for example--sort of like Excel does when you click on the components of a formula.

thinking and feeling.
And, you know, try to use the former more than the latter when they attempt to comment on policy issues.

Iowahawk Is On Fire
. . . these days. This is a
cheery little piece about multiculturalism taken too far. Some Europeans will find it strangely . . .
familiar.
But also take the time to scroll down Iowahawk's main page. Is it possible he's getting even weirder lately? (And I mean that it the good way.)

Jewish Exercise Video
Sometimes when I read Lair my jaw just drops open for a moment. Then I start to laugh. There's generally something appalling-yet-hilarious going on. Like
this.
Via Desert Cat.
UPDATE: You know, I thought I should check that link. For some reason I just thought I should verify that it worked. But then I figured, "hey, if I screwed up, someone will let me know. They always do. And it ain't like I'm getting paid."
Anyway, it's fixed now. At least I think it is. I didn't check it, of course.

Dr. Rice
...will be calling LaShawn soon, begging her to
change her mind. Asking for a chance: "Please, ma'am." Can you
imagine?
If you're playing catch-up, it started with this statement from Ms. Barber:
One of my advertisers is a group called Americans For Rice, and IÂ’ve been asked by several people where I stand on the Condi-for-president meme. I wouldnÂ’t vote for Condoleezza Rice for president of the United States. First, I donÂ’t think women generally have the sensibilities to run the country. Before you jump all over me, itÂ’s important that you know I donÂ’t care what you think. YouÂ’re reading this blog, so you obviously care what I think, so there it is.
The question is not whether we will have a female President. The question is, when. And who will it be?—some Reno-esque hack selected in a smoke-filled back room because we were overdue for a chick Chief Executive? Or a qualified woman of principle? Someone who can carry on the legacies of other successful female heads of state? (The examples usually cited are Maggie Thatcher and Elizabeth R. There are plenty of examples, however.)
I just finished Bush at War, and one of the things that jumps out of its pages is the role Rice has played in this White House, especially since 9/11. She was essentially an uber-Vice President, running meetings that even Cheney attended and far outranking the Chief of Staff.
Those who argue that one needs to have run for public office in order to take on the highest office in the land ignore the fact that there are exceptional individuals out there to whom the conventional rules simply do not apply. Dr. Rice is one of them.
Bush was drafted by the GOP. And if we're lucky, Rice will be drafted by Bush. She is his logical successor, especially in a time of war.
Furthermore, as Secretary of State she is making contacts now that will be invaluable when she transitions into the role of President herself.
The time has come. Lead, follow, or get out of the way.

LaShawn's comments were beneath stupid. She'll never live them down. Once Condi is President, I don't know what LaShawn will do.

Thank you, Little Miss Attila, for supportive words on why Condoleezza Rice has the best ability to be our first female president. Your comments will be printed out and added to my booklet, a collectiion of newspaper articles and comments from conservative leaders. She is the strongest woman in our nation, and Forbes magazine gave her the title "the most powerful woman in the world".

No contest in my case. I'm allergic to gin.

A martini is 2.5 oz of gin & .5 oz of dry vermouth and above all it is stirred!!!! Once it is shaken its no longer a martini either. In proper terminology calling it a Gin Martini is redundant, along the lines of the Department of Redundancy Department. You can debate the true martini garnish, where it was orginally a twist of lemon then later the olive gained popularity.
Besides the Martini is better than the Vodkatini (Vodka Martini) anyways. To clarify the process by which vodka is made is to eliminate any impurties and flavors in the drink, where as gin is made to embrace a wide range of botannicals to enhance its flavor, not deprive one of it and therefore serve as a superior mixer. (same goes for Gin & Tonic which is far superior to Vodka Tonic).
My gin of preference is Bombay Saphire.

I don't like the taste of gin. I do like the taste of vodka.
That happened before I got allergic to gin.
And before I had to stop drinking much of any alcohol at all.
I used to thrive on vodka & tonics. With lime. But I'm happy for you, Mr. Pirate, liking gin. It's just personal taste. Kind of like the donut controversy - yeast vs. raised.

Gin gin gin gin gin.
I had a "dirty martini" tonight. (That's the one with the olive juice in it.)
I like Bombay Sapphire, but I think Tanqueray 10 is a little better. I've never tried them back to back, though.
Vodka is for screwdrivers and Bloody Marys. And Cosmos.
However: a martini is just about pure booze, so I've invented the "mini martini" (half the gin, half the vermouth). This complements the "mini dry Manhattan" I invented a year and a half ago. One of those, and then it's back to nonalcoholic beverages (or maybe maybe a gin and tonic, which I make with exactly one ounce of gin). I'm a small woman, and I have to respect that.

Oh, and of course once we get into the first and second cousins of the martini--like a Blood Orange "Martini"--I'm expecting vodka in it to showcase the featured taste. (That is actually a great drink for a gourmet meal, because it doesn't interfere in any way with the appreciation of the food--it's a mini-palate cleanser.)

Remember what Reagan said: you can work with a group if you agree with them on 85% of the issues. (For those of us who are serious libertarians, I'd put it at 75-80%, 'cause that's the best we can do.)
