True patriots

by

True patriots do not blindly accept all that comes from Washington D.C., Juneau, etc., regardless (nor, for that matter, rejects regardless). True patriots work toward the mending of flaws, putting self-control on our government, and making sure our laws are ones of liberty.

Seattle snow

by

This is all sorts of entertaining, as an ex-Alaskan living down here — a rare early March snowstorm is more or less shutting western Washington down. I can understand, as Seattle has hills that Anchorage doesn’t…but it’s still pretty entertaining to see all this after an inch or two of snow. Right now there’s pictures on the morning news of the West Seattle bridge backed up after two Metro buses jackknifed, and people have been abandoning their cars along the sides of the highways and walking.

Da plane! Da plane!

Following up on one of yesterday’s bits: after people started pointing out that there didn’t seem to be an airplane in the released shots of the Pentagon 9/11 attack, some new photos have been released. It’s a little difficult to see, as they’re from a security camera some distance away, but some enterprising online people have put together some helpful pages. Aren’t conspiracy theories fun? :D

A.I. (Absolutely Incredible)

by

I really do think that AI is an astounding film. Luckily enough, I’m not the only one. If you’ve got some time to kill and have seen the film, it’s really worth checking out a couple discussions going on over at the HTF, there’s some amazingly intelligent analyses being posted.

Ashcroft sings?

by

Why Attorney General John Ashcroft just might be insane. Admittedly, it’s heavily biased and slanted writing — hardly the paragon of unbiased journalism — but if you can filter out the rhetoric, there are some pretty scary things about Ashcroft.
