National joke Reince Priebus didn't pass. I loved the way he started: “I just wanna let you know. I’m a Christian. I’m a believer. God lives in my heart. And I’m for changing minds, not changing values. Are you with... Continue reading

The best ever, all at the same place? Sounds like a hell of a dump. Here on the coast, of course, they come & go very quickly (also the jazz spots too) except maybe the Whisky & the Roxy.

Can't make the difference much clearer than this: We hope Sarah Hofmann is proud of herself. We might also ask Gawker & Raw Story what made this a national story; as soon as they can stop saying "dildo" & "sex... Continue reading

Very interested how Moore's Law "Moore's law is the observation that, over the history of computing hardware, the number of transistors on integrated circuits doubles approximately every two years. The period often quoted as "18 months" is due to Intel executive David House, who predicted that period for a doubling in chip performance (being a combination of the effect of more transistors and their being faster). (actually a not very rigorous observation, nowhere near a "law") applies to on-line course costs.
One of these days I am going to wander out to Venice (the Calif. one) & give Douchey Friedersdorf a pie in the face. (I understand Mickey Kaus lives in Venice as well, but giving that has-been what for would be too cruel even for me.) Believe it or shove it, Douchey is so fucking dense he can't understand how to ride buses. But if you're intending to visit, I'd suggest driving or biking, because every time someone has tried to explain the various bus systems that connect them, and the rules for transferring among them, I've experienced that same feeling I had in the class that convinced me to stop taking math. Didn't believe me? Read/weep. Those who bother to read the whole idiotic classist & racist screed can read a rebuttal here.

Hey, you made memeorandum, which appears to mean nothing these days, but it still beats a poke in the eye w/ a sharp stick (or virtually anything else).
Ouch. Sounds like more than just "ringing." You could look it up.

Also she was cheating on deductions: “The IRS calls my house and says … ‘I just wanted to let you know that we’re going to be auditing your business’ and I said ‘My businesses?’ and he said, ‘You know the expenses you take off for writing,” the academic recalls.Mystic powers of the I.R.S.: 1) Invoke their name (just once even) & they appear. While Korzen denied this on the air, Hendershott read from the [I.R.S. Form] 990 form in an effort to prove he wasn’t telling the truth. This, she believes, may have sparked — or played a role — in spawning the IRS audit. “He was getting paid by one organization and working for another,” the professor said of Korzen. ”The IRS should have gone after them.”Uh, not as long as he declared both incomes. No wonder she was audited. B) The Cone of Silence.Her writings for the Catholic Advocate soon ceased because, Hendershott admits, the IRS audit silenced her. If her suspicions are true, this may have been its chilling intention.A mere audit, entirely by itself, silenced her. She wasn't jailed, fined, forced to pay back taxes, denied her deductions or told to lay off George Soros by the I.R.S. But she knew, even w/o proof. Fortunately this "chilling" effect wore off just as the I.R.S. was accused of doing its job elsewhere, so she can get in on the fun.
So, has anyone put Mrs. Norris's book through the plagiarism detector? I suppose a bullshit-so-trite-no-one-would-bother-copyrighting-it detector would have better results. P.S.: Rory link goes to Wonkit.

You should probably dump that glass on Frum's head rather than giving it to him to drink.

Here is an even more disturbing image of "KT," via a B.J. commenter. Also, guessing that Townhall employs someone to rewrite headlines. KT's title at her web log (many more wonderful pictures) is "Relooking [sic] at Young Hactivists."

KK's web log doesn't, however, feature un-registered comments. I can't imagine why. I'd think people would be dying to tell Katie how cute & just plain adorable she is.
And if the Prez tried to do anything to help African-Americans specifically, all the blather about gifts to the poor, ya-da, would, at a minimum, be quadrupled from its current dull but never-ending roar.
Did you use the Bat-net? And are you certain no bat spittle was flecked on any residents?

But what happened to the bat? Is s/he still there? And the species? You're headed down the path of slacking. Like me. Watch it.

And: Does J. Rubin have young goats ("kids") or human children? Inquiring minds ... Love the reactionaries whining about sexism (& racism) w/o understanding the concepts; I'd say Jenghazi's hubby is the "sexist pig" if he can't pick up the goats kidschildren while she's engaged in a vicious Twit-fight.

Technically it was the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Dep't. that fired the canisters, not the LAPD. Also read somewhere that they'd already tried non-pyro grenades w/ no result. Maybe Dorner was using the scuba gear he was possibly seen buying. Added note: As we mentioned at our own dump a while ago, Memeorandum must really be over: You'd think at least one right-winger/cop-fondler would show up to complain. Have to jack up the trolling, I guess.
