I received an interesting email last evening from reader “skullberg” about which I’d be curious to get your thoughts: […] I figured you might find this bit of nerditry interesting. If Gore and his energy glutton apologists are serious the “carbon offset” are as good as reducing consumption, then I say we start pushing carbon offsets as national energy policy. Here’s how the numbers work out: According to wikipedia, Kyoto

What is it about many left-wing web users and this aversion they have to free speech?  I mean, is there some ingredient in tofu or Mangotinis that I need to steer clear of?  Is Ralph Nader some sort of sinister Svengali? Because I gotta tell you, I never did completely trust that guy—and my opinion of him only worsened when I lent him my Jeep a couple of Augusts ago

Last year, I predicted the Colorado Rockies would win 81-85 games (they won 76), and would surprise the National League West (which they managed to do up until just after the all-star break, when team management did nothing to get them what they needed to make a run in a weak division).  This off-season, however—while Rockies’ fans bitched and moaned about the loss of Jason Jennings in a trade that

Apparently, this particular beating, in an impresive string of Greenwald(s) beatings, was so severe that it literally dislodged Mona from Glenn’s(’s) rectum long enough to allow her to slither into the comments, and—in typical high dudgeon—inadvertantly queer things up even more for the New York Times best-selling author (whose work, once read by Russ Feingold on the Senate floor, has since been inscribed on the inside

With Danny DeVito as . . . Actually, you know the old saw about March: In like a(n) X, out like a(n) Y.  Here, we’re supposed to get a foot of snow tonight, so I guess it’s more or less in like a candiru.  Or maybe a Viking.

Hmmmm.  Turns out blow jobs are sex, after all. ….an English teacher at Horace Mann High School in North Fond du Lac, was formally charged with 10 counts of sexual assault of a student by school staff and 10 counts of child enticement. Newly appointed District Attorney Michael O’Rourke had requested that intake Judge Robert Wirtz set cash bail at $25,000, noting the severity of the crime. Burman, of Oshkosh,

This Glen Greenwald thing about the Huffpo Commenters and the discussions with Cynn in the comments remind me of two quotes I see from time to time, written by opponents of Bush, usually in reference to the perception of increasing fascism in the U.S. (along with allegations that 9/11 was a Reichstag Fire for the looming totalitarian impulses of the right, etc.).  I’ve highlighted the quotes in passages below to

From Jules Crittenden: Former Canadian defense minister demands that the world governments disclose UFO technology and use it to stop global warming. Instapunk on Patterico on Greenwald. David Thompson: religious affiliations of comic book heroes revealed. Some critics of Jeff may be surprised to learn that there’s a Royal Pasty. I’m willing to overlook it:
