My review of the new sodas from the Dewmocracy ad campaign.

The New York Times picks up the story on the Yemeni journalist al-Khaiwani and Jane Novak's efforts to petition and bring attention to his unethical treatment at the hands of the Yemeni government.  If you want to sign the petition, there's a link in that post.  Jane reacts to the article at the Jawas.

The GOP tries to pin the loss of the Mississippi special election on colossal douchebag Trent Lott.  As much as I'd like to pin this on Trent Lott, that isn't the real reason we lost that district.  Conservative malaise continues...

Sox fans or Yankee haters are going to laugh at this, after they finish projectile vomiting.  They share it?

The latest caption-y goodness at VtheK's.

A little bit on the history of coffee and the coffee trade.

The latest from Geraldine Ferraro.

Nah, they aren't even hiding it anymore.

Yeah, my parents would have killed me if I did this, or leaving me wishing they had.

A handy combo tool for you.

Buried treasure!

Maine takes has a surplus in this years tax receipts...not a problem, the state government will find ways to creatively spend it.

I'm so confused by this, they banned "assault" rifles in DC, didn't they?  So why are there drive-by's, and why are the DC police looking at buying ARs for their officers?

Our public schools are crap.

We should be watching the growing alliance between Russia and China very closely.  I don't think we can rely on old rivalry and hatred to keep them apart.  We should looking to strengthen our relationships with India, Japan, Australia and the rest of the Pacific Rim as a counter.
