I shall proceed and continue to watch the blogs…

The Agitator: Happy Constitution Day! I remember this one party back in college, some time after midnight, a heated argument about some article or amendment or other was raging. “Well, does anyone actually have a Constitution here?” someone asked. Russo paused, thought for a moment, and brushed aside the plastic vodka bottles and poker chips until she found her little backpack. She dug around in the bag and whipped out–yes!–one of those free copies of the Constitution that the Cato Institute gives out instead of lollipops. It was a great moment in VRWC resourcefulness.

Total Request Live with Eve!: It would rock if Brink Lindsey would weigh in on recent “developments” in the US/Iraq doubletalkfest. Am still mulling his big post on Iraq (and scroll up for a postscript), and wading through the comments thereon (which I printed out before they vanished).

Lileks: Awesome Bleat for anyone following the Amy Welborn church-architecture posts. “Very modern, for 1958 — and it reminds you how churches completely shook off the past after WW2. They built sleek stripped-down structures that abandoned their specific historical vocabulary. Churches now looked like ski lodges, motel lobbies, golf-course clubhouses. Machines for efficient praying to a Savior in the gray flannel robe. The church we attended in Fargo was modernized in the 50s as well, and to my eyes today it looks like the perfect parish for Paul Drake, Perry Mason’s detective associate. I can see him taking the pulpit, putting out his Pall Mall, shooting a finger at the choir, and giving a sermon, the title of which would be ‘Is God a Square?'” Then it goes kinda Lileks-meets-Chesterton. Fun stuff.

Unqualified Offerings: Problems with one attempt to link Saddam to 9/11.

And a Weegee archive. Awesome. Via AgendaBender.
