Fun Stuff

The Pensacola News Journal notes that Santa Rosa is tops in pot. The next county to the West is once again the leader in the state in locating and eradicating people’s marijuana patches. [What a waste of time, money, and man hours.]

Released on Saturday, Apple announced today the first iPad work-arounds to deal with the problems people are having connecting to WiFi.

A Wisconsin DA tells teachers that the new sex education course could get them arrested for corrupting the morals of children [or some other bogus charge]. I assume everyone realizes that this District Attorney is a Republican.

Rupert Murdoch is going to limit Google and Microsoft, so that you can’t find any of his media outlets with a search engine. Rupert is going to charge people to view his AP feeds. If he thinks that the people who watch Fox News can afford to pay, he is in for a shock.

This Jim Morin cartoon on the current plans to regulate the financial industry is all too accurate.

Mark Twain

"There are two novels that can change a bookish 14-year old's life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs."

John Rogers

"The presence of those seeking the truth is infinitely to be preferred to the presence of those who think they've found it."
