Former President of Italy Outraged at Columbia’s Choice of Speaker

Sunday, September 30th, 2007

I received this correspondance from my overseas pal, MLJ. I have no idea to the veracity of this but it wouldn’t surprise me in the slightest to learn that our increasingly liberal universities have welcomed people like Iran’s current leader with open arms.
Rome, Italy – September 2007
In protest against the invitation of the president [...]

Here’s Why a Google Phone Won’t Work and Other Thoughts on Advertising in the 21st Century

Saturday, September 29th, 2007

[Editor: I think that's my longest post title ever. Just don't hold me to it.]
I don’t often editorialize here on the blog. You know it’s mostly, Guitar Hero this, Guitar Hero that, (And no I didn’t toss that in to up my GH keywords), posts about my favorite sporting events with an occasional cool [...]

GH3 for the PC?

Saturday, September 29th, 2007

So, are you standing in line for that next great game? No, I’m not talking about Halo 3. I’m talking about Guitar Hero 3: Legends of Rock. But this time, on a PC?!?!
For me, this is one game that’s definitely NOT going to be better on a PC, guitar-controller or not. There’s nothing like [...]

Halo 3 Sells Like Hotcakes

Friday, September 28th, 2007

Sure, I knew Halo 3 would make good money, but I had no idea it would own the single biggest day in entertainment history?!?
The company said that Halo 3, the third and final episode in the hugely popular franchise, netted $170 million in sales in the U.S. in its first day. If true, that would [...]

Romo Is the Next Favre

Sunday, September 23rd, 2007

I’m well aware that Favre isn’t done yet. Who knows when he’ll call it quits. Heck, today he three for 369 yards and 3 TDs in the Packers win over the Chargers. But I’m sitting here watching Tony Romo play the game of football just the same way. He’s running, dodging, throwing crazy passes that [...]

H2O: Episode 1 ‘Thirsty’

Friday, September 21st, 2007

I don’t often broadcast my faith on this blog. For regular readers, I’m guessing you know where I stand. These videos are so well-crafted that I felt I needed to share them. And it doesn’t hurt that I know the talented people involved at our church.
So give them a look. I’d love to hear [...]

Brownback Pushing Life Legislation

Friday, September 21st, 2007

This just in from the good folks at the FRC,:
A picture may be worth a thousand words, but Sen. Sam Brownback (R-Kans.) believes that it could also be worth thousands of lives. Yesterday, Brownback, one of the Senate’s biggest pro-life champions, introduced a bill called the Ultrasound Informed Consent Act with co-sponsors Sens. Norm [...]

From the Halls of Malibu to the Shores of Kennedy
This is a powerful piece by Coulter which ends: “OK, they knew what Petraeus was going to say. But we knew what the Democrats were going to say. If liberals are not traitors, their only fallback argument at this point is that they’re really stupid.”

Kentucky Beats Louisville in Instant Classic

Sunday, September 16th, 2007

It’s kind of tough to believe. Kentucky actually won a big football game. Then you’ve got to remember that the team they beat lost it in a fashion usually accomplished by the Wildcats.
So when you watch the highlights of the game—Kentucky 40 Louisville 34—just remember back to the LSU loss where we fans thought [...]

Pro-Choice Now Fine With ‘Pro-Abortion’?

Monday, September 10th, 2007

I just noticed this ad at the top of my page and did a double-take. So people are actually looking to buy “Abortion Apparel”?
I’m so depressed.
