Hokay, here we go...*Looks around fearfully*So it seems that the coast is finally clear: No one that I care about knows that I'm blogging again. The only people that have noticed are peeps whose opinions I care about (except that Richard Cranium asshole--I mean, who cares about him?).Oh Hi Dick!Where to start? Hmmm, I want to puke over what happened at VT, until I think about how that happens

Cthulhu ♥'s Him some FafblogYe Ancient and Cranky One likes how that lame-ass Fafnir thinks he can just blog out of nowhere, after an unanounced hiatus, without so much as a howdy-do, or even a reach-around. No explanations, no apologies.Farging bastid.It's enough to make a cephalopod waggle a tentacle or two. The beer gods know, even Great Cthulhu wouldn't do something that lame.

33:1 Insurgent to American Casualties Estimated According to a number of foreign sources there have been between 500-600 insurgents or Iraqi Militants killed in the attack on Fallujah. US casualties are currently limited to 18 but there are claims of 178 wounded. This has been released by the Associated Press and Boston.com News has it here. What I would like to know is what the definition of an

Meanwhile, Mess-o'-potamia still burns Just as a counter to Rumskull's spin, and the SCLM's whoring, the BBC has this: In the Hasbiyyah area, I counted the bodies of at least six US soldiers lying on the ground. Some of them were badly mangled with various bits blown off. Others were in better condition, as if they had taken small-arms fire. I noticed two of the US soldiers were still

What I want to know is why we have not learned our lesson from the beginning of the war. How many of you remember the "Mission Accomplished" banner? More than a year later it is far from over.

On a more somber note... The last time Marines went into Fallujah it was a humanitarian disaster. Drastically outnumbered on a mission dictated from--but not supported by--the White House, the Marines resorted to some pretty rough tactics: We stop, turn off the siren, keep the blue light flashing, wait, eyes on the silhouettes of men in US marine uniforms on the corners of the buildings.

What does "Schadenfreude" mean? Because that's what I'm thinking when I try to imagine the freepers' response to seeing a picture like this. Dictionary.com defines "schadenfreude" as "Pleasure derived from the misfortunes of others." Okay, freepers, I'll go with that.

What Do You Mean by "Free"?, Part II Welcome back to our informal review of the Bill of Rights. This is just a quick synopsis of the some of the historical background behind, and relevent interpretations of, the first ten amendments to the United States Constitution, collectively titled The Bill of Rights. So let's get this ant-hill well and thoroughly kicked over: Amendment II: A well

Manufacturing Terrorists, One Attrocity at a Time William Rivers Pitt has torn back the veil to expose a horrid, naked truth: Osama bin Laden didn't just spring up from the muck, and neo-conservative foreign policy is working overtime to manufacture more of him as quickly as possible: Osama bin Laden becomes truly scary when the realization comes that he is not unique, not singular, not an

What Do You Mean by "Free"?, Part I Welcome to the first installment of Bill of Rights 101. As an armchair historian, I'm sickened by people who bandy "freedom" around without any understanding or appreciation of what it actually means. "They hate our freedoms" is one example. To my knowledge, Osama bin Laden has stated that he hates our presence in Muslim holy lands, and he hates our support

Great Galluping Goobers The Left Coaster takes a hard look at Gallup's methodology, and comes up with some disturbing information: Because the Gallup Poll, despite its reputation, assumes that this November 40% of those turning out to vote will be Republicans, and only 33% will be Democrat. Some quick math here: Gallup is saying that if they poll 100 Democrats and 100 Republicans, and that
