I’m pretty terrible about not posting anything on here. Pretty much this is a result of being bogged down with a mountain of homework or other academic work, which is an adequate excuse for me. I was considering implementing something to produce a daily digest of interesting links from google reader with a brief comment, [...]
Yelling at the Grass For Being The Wrong Shade of Green
Americans Should Be Able to Sell Stuff Without a Permit The normal mindset among U.S. officials is that prior permission should be required to sell legal goods to a willing buyer. Kids selling lemonade on the street are shut down. A Missouri man has been fined $90,000 for selling rabbits (he made about $200). In [...]

In Which I End Up Sounding Like a Conspiracy Theorist
I’m not big on conspiracy theories. Some are more entertaining than others, sure. And some are right in pointing out that something isn’t right in re whatever it is they’re theorizing conspiracies about. And I have one of my own.

I didn’t even look to see when my last real post was.). I’ve been awfully busy with schoolwork. With luck I’ll actually manage to keep some kind of [...]
I Want My Post-Apocalypse America, And I Want it Medium-Rare
I was kinda gripped by this article on Helium a few days ago. It kinda struck me as panicky and sensationalistic, or in other words, crap. Doomsday: How BP Gulf disaster may have triggered a ‘world-killing’ event Ominous reports are leaking past the BP Gulf salvage operation news blackout that the disaster unfolding in the [...]

College tuition in GA set to rise again
BWAHAHAHAHA… I go to a public university in GA. The comments on the Augusta Chronicle’s page are, as always, worth the read. One of the commentrs sounds suspiciously like one of my professors from last semester (and the fact that he hints at the fact that he has his doctorate). Chapters 6 & 7 of [...]
Canaries in the coalmine
To borrow the analogy from John Robb over at Global Guerillas, who sees the recent Joe Stack incident as such a marker. In addition to that, I’d point out the guy who bulldozed his own house in retaliation of forclosure: As well as the ridiculousness of the Tea Party. These people don’t know what they [...]
