I'm not sure if this makes me wish I were Scottish, or glad that I'm not. 

This is bizarre.

I have to say, I've never heard of a "fake" governmental office popping up in the States.  That's one more industry India's taken the lead in.

This does it.

I'm eating nothing but hamburgers and pizza from here forward.

With luck, the Brits will all soon be living locked in padded rooms, constrained by straight-jackets.  All for the safety of society, of course.

Si vis pacem, para bellum.

"If you seek peace, prepare for war."   It's a sad fact of the current state of our tapioca-brained liberal politically-correct society that these ageless words of wisdom have been replaced with something more akin to "If you seek peace, bury your head in the sand, and maybe then you won't notice that bad things can still happen."

Photo-realistic drawings.

The amazing bit is that they're all done entirely with a Bic pen.  I didn't even know this was possible.  This, ladies and gentlemen, is a *real* artist.

An amusing take on "Dangerous Financial Products"

Thankfully, Edwards is now out of the race, and this is one frivolous piece of potential legislation that we won't have to worry about.  Too bad none of the mainstream candidates have the post authors point of view.   That is, of course, assuming that Ron Paul isn't going to make a dash to the front of the race anytime soon.

Yet more proof that criminals aren't the brightest ever.

He has a magnificent beard, so he must be right.

The beard aside, however, what he's saying makes sense.  http://www.newsweek.com/id/110937

I'm going to have to check out his book.
