And this is Journalism?

Saturday, February 26th, 2005

So this is what passes for journalism these days…. Angry leftist “it’s true because I said it” dialogs with so full of swear words it belies their limited imagination and vocabulary. Consider the following paragraph… beware it is rated R at best:

Ban abortions of ‘gay’ fetuses

Saturday, February 26th, 2005

At first I thought it was a horrible joke. After some reflection though I realized there is nothing like beating them at their own game to show the hipocracy of the Left. Pit Abortion “rights” against homosexual “rights” and watch the fireworks as the Left trip over their tongues to get out of it.

Rangle vs the PA

Saturday, February 26th, 2005

While Charlie Rangle has palpitations over referring to Hezbollah terrorists it seems one of the largest quasi official terrorist organizations in the middle east has no problem with it. Could we all have been wrong about President Abbas or is he still in the honeymoon phase of showing off on the world stage before returning [...]

Of All the Worlds Ills…

Saturday, February 26th, 2005

There are so many things in the world that need addressed and what do politicians focus their attention on? Inaccurate movie start time….

Gary Varvel

Saturday, February 26th, 2005

Link Cox & Forkum I seldom link to Gary Varvel because every cartoon is good making it necessary to highlight only those cartoons that are particularly profound. The Indy Star only maintains a week of archives so to Slate’s archives may be a better resource.

E-Mail Reliability Sinking

Saturday, February 26th, 2005

I’ve received numerous complaints from our staff and clients in recent years on emails that never made it to their destination. Almost every time we can eventually track the missing messeges to anti-spam technology on the recipient’s servers. It is finally becoming obvious to the rest of the (non-IT) world that the reliability of Email [...]

President in Europe

Friday, February 25th, 2005

It shouldn’t be surprising that the media is covering the anti-US protests but not the pro-US ones.

How to Kill Linux?

Friday, February 25th, 2005

Dvorak thinks he knows how MS can kill linux in the classic Embrace-and-Extend MS style. Dvorak is correct that Linux doesn’t offer as broad of device support as Windows but that’s not necessarily a function of Microsoft itself but of the vendors. Linux doesn’t have the desktop penetration many vendors feel they need to justify [...]

Syria Reducing Forces in Lebanon

Friday, February 25th, 2005

The real story, Syria Reduces ‘Boots on Ground’ in Lebanon. I always wonder about the obvious ecstasy of the UN when a two-bit dictator suddenly decides to abide by a decade old agreement. But then the UN is really little more than a social club for two-bit dictators anyway so I guess I shouldn’t be [...]

Charges dropped. Cop fired.

Friday, February 25th, 2005

With all the insanity in the news it’s heartening to see justice is occasionally served. In case you missed the original story and a bit of additional coverage of the resolution. I’m all for supporting law enforcement, they have a daunting and under funded job to do. But in such work just a warm body [...]
