Blogging... of sorts...

Be In with the In-Crowd! Join the Twisty Book Club!

Seven Basic Story Plots Good to know

America's Mayor

Los Angeles' Mayor

Climate Change, Sabre Tooth Tigers and Devaluing the Future Mentions Sabre Tooth Tigers and has pictures!

Siberian Nights: The East Siberia-Pacific Ocean Oil Pipeline Mentions Lake Baikal

Singing the Vegetable Opera Mentions: "Evidence now conclusively shows that Saudi Arabia's oil production was down 8 percent in 2006 over 2005, even while the number of oil rigs went up substantially -- indicating that the Kingdom is drilling as fast as it can and still losing ground. (Production slipped from 9.9 million-barrels-a-day to about 8.4 mm/b/d.) Mexico's Cantarell field is crashing (minimum 15 percent annual decline and possibly much steeper rate, meaning in a year or two the US will cease getting oil imports from its number two foreign supplier). The North Sea is crashing, too. Russia is about show steep decline. Iran is past peak. Iraq, as every six-year-old knows, is the world's clusterfuck poster child. Indonesia (OPEC member) is now a net oil importer. Venezuela is past peak and full of loathing for the US. Nigeria is collapsing politically. No amount of corn is going save the Happy Motoring utopia, and that's really all our economy is now based on."

Jusqu'a la deluge, voila les comics:

"'For Better or For Worse' continues to demonstrate why Canada is so boring.

"And "9 Chickweed Lane' continues to address sexual identity and desire ... the first comic strip to be named after a naughty bit of human anatomy since Peanuts. Keep that one."
We Get Email, LA Observed, March 5, 2007

"As the president and editor of Universal Press Syndicate, he is the man responsible for recognizing a slew of creative talent that impacted American pop culture over the last 30-plus years. The origins of Garry Trudeau and 'Doonesbury,' Gary Larson and 'The Far Side,' Bill Watterson and 'Calvin and Hobbes,' Lynn Johnston and 'For Better or Worse' and Cathy Guisewite and 'Cathy,' all can be traced back to the man I’m about to interview."
Lee Salem Interview, Mr. Media, February 22, 2007

Hey, three out of five ain't bad. This is a great interview, btw.

The Case for Mary Worth, by Barry Alfonso, Post Gazette, March 4, 2007

I’d rather be killed by giant bugs than be saved by a woman! They steal your precious bodily fluids!

And some old, but pertinent news about the music industry:

The RIAA is suing everyone they can find:

The Recording Industry vs The People

But:

RIAA Petitions Judges to Lower Artist Royalties. Aggressively litigious group has claimed to protect musicians in the past. Now believes musicians deserve less for "innovative" music distribution.

Conclusive proof that the RIAA works for Satan.
