Hiding in Plain Sight

Monday, January 4th, 2010

CBS has brilliantly demonstrated why censorship is not only immoral, it is just plain head-up-your-ass stupid. CBS: Playing with fire extinguishers! In covering the recent attack on a Danish cartoonist and his family by an axe-wielding terrorist who apparently couldn’t find any exploding underwear, CBS takes pains to blur out the actual years-old cartoon of [...]

Art Attack!

Tuesday, January 12th, 2010

I’m putting my most recent Weapon Brown page up for sale on Etsy. I’ve only done a little Etsying in the past, but I’d like to do more, especially if I can develop an interest among you fans for owning the original Weapon Brown pages. As you will see from the the page I am [...]

Attention! Book Faces!

Friday, January 15th, 2010

As we all know, this Facebook thing is the biggest thing to hit the Interthing since Twister or whatever that other big thing was. So if you are a fan of this site and want to be my buddy in a lurid way that this website alone cannot provide, get your ass to my Facebook [...]

Hot Water

Some of you have been reading and commenting for a while, yet I still don’t know which breadcrumb trail you followed to get here. Please take a [...]

Boiling Point

Friday, January 22nd, 2010

Rather than put this in the comments section of my “Hot Water” post, I will address the feedback I’ve received here. The Massachusetts election, if it has proven anything, has shown that rumors of the death of the Republican party have been highly exaggerated. Glenn Beck is even nowtrumpeting a “civil war in the Democratic [...]

Pop Culture

Here’s a worthwhile blog entry from the nuclear powered Matt Taibbi, taking on snob apologist David Brooks over the merits of populism. A good read, and it will angry up your blood!

Ask not what your Obama can do for you…

Sunday, January 31st, 2010

I was originally somewhat disappointed by Obama’s State of the Union address. I found his “feistiness” about as compelling as the “zestiness” of a nacho cheese triangle. His tone was too concilliatory for my tastes, especially after a year of tea partying. Asking the Republicans to lead? No! He should be asking them to lick [...]
