Stroll Through The Blogroll

Graphics credit Skippy, concept credit Skippy and Jon Swift

Pootling around the blogroll, we find that some have taken a hiatus, or ceased blogging altogether. Or maybe it's just that it's summer and not everyone's a gimp. Disirregardless, as we say in the better schools, it's time for a rundown of the buzz on our blogroll.
  • Over at All Spin Zone, Steven Reynolds notes Bob Novakula's attempts to acquire a hood ornament;

  • Fixer at Alternate Brain tells it to Chuck Schumer (Dummkopf-NY) like it is;

  • Jerome Doolittle displays his Bad Attitudes by remarking on how swiftly Caligula Jr. is abandoning all pretense of cowboying. Remember his good buddy Vicente Fox, who called him a "windshield cowboy?" The pathetic little creep is terrified of horses.

  • Bukola, over at Being Bukola. Bravely. gives us a primer on Nigeria. Check out her other posts on life in Nigeria wherefrom she has recently returned.

  • Remember Johnny McAncient's whining about how the NYT wouldn't publish his rebuttal to Senator Obama? Well, our good buddy Chuck, over at Chuck for ... substantially reproduced the piece &mdash and then took his scalpel to it. Nicely carved for your enjoyable consumption.

  • Our good buddy Stephen, over at Drinking Liberally in New Milford, gives Chris Shays a taste of Teh Trademarked Bat o'Clue, and no one deserves it more.

  • r@d@r, over at ex-lion tamer, does a very satisfying rant on the stupidity of parents who take young children to unsuitable movies.

  • Over at I'm Jus' A Lil' Dizzy, Dizzy Dezzi talks about the MySpace suicide, and makes good sense. Enough nannyism. A civil suit may be called for, but a criminal prosecution would probably be ineffective and a waste of taxpayer money.

  • The Earth-Bound Misfit has some wonderful ideas on interesting things you might want to do to Skeletor Chertoff (WHY does that asshole still have a job?) or Bybee, he of the "vigorous interrogation" school of thought. Bonus excellent post, or, hell, just read the whole goddamned blog. Especially if your tastes run to aviation and mechanics.

  • We've been slack with our science posts, so we ambled over to Mike the Mad Biologist's looking for fodder, but he's gone one better: a post on Social Security and communication that qualifies as a must-read.

  • Acallidryas has a hilarious post on the PUMAs over at Moue Magazine.

  • nunya, over at politickybitch, has an interesting post on Uighurs and events in China.

  • Seinlife has a post up on the goddamned sugarcane plantation proposed for Kenya.


That's it, folks, thanks for coming along!

In reply to your question over at my little corner of the electronic universe:

Up to my armpits in boxes (some of them half unpacked) and busy as all hell because I am trying to help organize a trip for a bunch of hockey fans to the center of the the hockey universe (Montreal) and I won't even be able to go because it is a week before the elections. That's ok... Who can afford a long drive with these gas prices?

We were officially out of our "home" and into our "house" as of Monday.

Hi, all,

Stephen, it's great that you've managed to make the transition. I wish you many good things in the future. I know the feeling of living out of boxes.

Chuck - my sentiments exactly.

Rebecca - always good to see you.

Hey sweetie, thanks for the link. I thought the article poked a big hole in the myth that only propaganda is published in Moscow. It seemed fair to me.

Hey, toots. Glad to see you, as always, taking names and kicking asses.
