Pragmaticism: May 2005
http://pragmaticism.blogspot.com/2005_05_01_archive.html
Cut back to Shamrock: "Tito Ortiz is going to find out who Ken Shamrock is, was, and is now." The "is now" in that sentence wasn't really a redundancy. Shamrock was employing a new tense the ultimate tense to describe how he was about to be bringing it, how it was about to have been brung. Tuesday, May 31, 2005. We'll fight to the death about gay marriage. But when it comes to corporations, we know whose side the Supreme Court is on. Posted by CharlesPeirce @ 10:30 AM. Tuesday, May 24, 2005. It follows f...

Was difficult to take. But if [the people who oppose Ratzinger] do not believe in hell, what are they worried about? What are they whining about? I bought a Honda C...

Poetry and Scotch: September 2005
http://poetryandscotch.blogspot.com/2005_09_01_archive.html
It's like Mardi Gras meets the bombing of Dresden. Monday, September 26, 2005. The Merits of a Steak and Jam Sandwich. Blogger has been pissing me off today. It won’t let me post pictures, and it has deleted two posts I’ve attempted to put up already today. But, I’m at work and have nothing else to do so I’m trying again. (and yes, I’ve heard the definition of insanity). I really tried to be late to work today. A quick question on the my favorite topic- the Iraq war. Excluding utilitarian claims on the l...

Standing Out in the Cold: January 2007
http://standingoutinthecold.blogspot.com/2007_01_01_archive.html
Standing Out in the Cold. Tuesday, January 16, 2007. Congressmen as Presidential Candidates. Get off my back, I'm busy these days. In the history of the U.S. 15 senators have become president. Only two - Harding and Truman - moved straight from the senate to the White House. And JFK is the only other to do it with less than 2 years between. Here's the link. Here are some interesting facts:. 4 presidents held only the office of representative. 6 presidents held none of these offices. The office of senator.

Standing Out in the Cold: Lots of Money
http://standingoutinthecold.blogspot.com/2007/04/lots-of-money.html
Standing Out in the Cold. Monday, April 02, 2007. Whoa, am I posting again? I just have a quick question: what would happen if a presidential candidate donated their tens of millions of dollars. To feeding hungry children, or curing AIDS, or developing alternative fuel sources even, rather than spending it on campainging? Or would it just spell the end of their hopes in this whoever-spends-the-most-money-wins political system we have today? I'm pretty sure it would constitute fraud. Variations of a Theme.

Standing Out in the Cold: If you consider how many hours they actually work -- for us -- how much do they make per hour?
http://standingoutinthecold.blogspot.com/2007/04/if-you-consider-how-many-hours-they.html
Standing Out in the Cold. Thursday, April 19, 2007. If you consider how many hours they actually work - for us - how much do they make per hour? Is priceless. But don't get me wrong, this isn't about Democrats or Republicans - I am confident that most people on both sides of the aisle are the exact same. What this is about is how horrific our lawmakers are these days. This goes right alongside the " Series of Tubes. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Variations of a Theme. This Place is a Prison.

Standing Out in the Cold: April 2006
http://standingoutinthecold.blogspot.com/2006_04_01_archive.html
Standing Out in the Cold. Friday, April 28, 2006. I love hockey. And I love the Avalanche. I have a big post almost ready about the purpose of church services, but I haven't finished it yet because I'm too absorbed with the NHL playoffs (that's not really true, I'm busy with other things too, but it makes me sound more obsessed). Avalanche beat the Stars in 4 games (sweep 'em, baby! Oilers beat the Red Wings in 7 games. Flames beat the Mighty Ducks in 7 games. Sharks beat the Predators in 5 games. Would ...

http://standingoutinthecold.blogspot.com/2006_09_01_archive.html
Standing Out in the Cold. Friday, September 29, 2006. Today at 11:30AM I am selling my house. I have had this house listed since March 24 th. Almost six months to the day. I hate this house, due in no small part to the fact that it has been on the market for 6 months and I've had to pay the mortgage and maintain it during that time. I cannot express how excited I am to go to closing today. I hope I can refrain from dancing on the table. Tuesday, September 26, 2006. MSM: An Inside Look. I have grown out o...

Standing Out in the Cold: Stupid Polls
http://standingoutinthecold.blogspot.com/2007/04/stupid-polls.html
Standing Out in the Cold. Tuesday, April 17, 2007. There is a headline on Google. I've talked about this before, but it still baffles me. What is it about statistics that we, as a country, find so interesting? Is it that they're easily digested and have an air of legitimacy because they require some research and math to create? Or is it just the news agencies finding a cheap way to scare up a story when they don't have one? Or are they secretly. Mocking the American people? Variations of a Theme.
