You've probably heard this one about the pilot who told all the Christians on his flight to raise their hands, called all the non-Christians crazy, which then led people to grab their phones thinking they weren't coming off that plane in anything resembling a proper landing. Look, if you have to try to convert people, don't insult them, ostracize them, or make them fear for their lives in this realm. You can't get a convert with a gun to their head.
Speaking of violence and conversion, Al Qaeda has started using our lowest common denominator of culture - rap "music" - to get violent psychopaths to sign up with militant extremists and start blowing up Western civilization. I'll wait for the P. Diddy remix that should come out before Christmas.
Time Magazine and AOL have put out an online Q-and-A guide that you can use to determine who you actually want to vote for as president. Yeah, I know, its competent yet funded by AOL. Go figure.
If you don't want to be bothered by politics (and you visit this site?), go play this online game where you have to pick a Dictator or TV sitcom character (I don't know, I didn't make it) and see if you can stump the program.
Remember how we're treating our incoming foreign visitors like criminals at the door? Notice how they have nearly all been at least hospitable about the program, realizing our genuine fears? Too bad we can't do the same when we go overseas.
I'm not gonna say much about Bush's Meet the Press interview except to give you: a) the transcript, b) a liberal take on it, c) a libertarian-to-conservative-ish take on it, and d) conservative notes on it (and yet another from that perspective). Not a blockbuster performance.
And now, beer as seen through an optical microscope.
