I recall reading that Hillary Rodham Clinton was a graduate of Yale School of Law and a partner in the prestigious Rose Law Firm, in Arkansas. So, it was a little surprising to see her say this while pandering at a job-training center in California: Clinton…said she understood borrowers who didn’t read their mortgages. “I’ve got to tell you, I skim my mortgage papers. I didn’t read them. I didn’t know there was all that fine print and those pages... Read more

I liked “Don’t Taze Me Bro,” for 2007. But 2008 is the year that “No Woman Is Illegal!” I hope we see tee-shirts. That should become the punchline to almost every joke in the world: A pirate walks into a bar with a steering wheel coming out of his fly. The bartender says to him, “hey, you’ve got a steering wheel coming out of your fly!” The pirate says, “Arrrggh, aye, and it’s drivin’ me nuts! And NO WOMAN IS... Read more
This great vocation video got me started looking for more, and I found it: Don’t sit down yet! I always did like the flamenco! Okay, this one you can sit down for – you’ll have to – The Nicholas Brothers are incredible, and Astaire may have been right when he called this the greatest dance number ever filmed – these gents can fly! Clearly, they were astounding prodigies: And Ann Miller’s crazy tapping feet always fascinated, too. Now try to... Read more
I did not see last night’s debate, and for once I wish I had – it sounds like it was a hummer I’ll have to find the video. Mainstream Media coverage of the thing seems much lighter than it has been. Gateway has a good quick recap. Flopping Aces has one, too and a new site design. Many seem to agree that Thompson is finally coming into his own. This video is certainly instructive. The word “woodshed” comes to mind:... Read more

Dick Meyer has some thoughtful analysis today. It moves beyond the incessant (and exaggerated) “Hillary wept, then she swept” narrative that has been dominating most media, and it brushes aside the pundit hysteria and cablenews “where did we go wrong” breast-beating to look a little more deeply at who American voters really are. The sorry truth is that “change” was merely a phantom conjured by the political elite – a nano-trend, a shorthand, a figment, a wild goose chase. In... Read more
Love the music here, and great images, too! I want to jump in there and dance with these people! Via Roman Catholic Vocations Read more

This is just fascinating stuff. I can’t say I understand all of it, but I love pondering that vastness and the true, mysterious “cloud of unknowing” that only emphasizes that for all we know…we don’t know anything. The puzzle of where the mysterious antimatter at the heart of our galaxy comes from has finally been solved, according to a top Italian space expert. Giovanni Fabrizio Bignami, head of the Italian Space Agency…said the cloud of antimatter at the centre of... Read more
