- For all its faults, the American judicial system does hold the state accountable in most every area. (Except taxation, which is a topic for another day.) I got a ticket for an expired registration, but the cop accidentally wrote “expired inspection.” I was trying to just pay my fee at the clerk’s window when she pointed this out, noting that the officer can’t change it now and if I can bring in proof my inspection is current — and it is — it would be dismissed.
- I’ve been watching myself on video for a new long-term project I’m working on — yeah, on-camera talent, that’s me — and I notice that as I get older, the more I look like one of those people who come out and really shock the judges on “Britain’s Got Talent” because I can sing well. Only I can’t sing well.
- Also, I’m “straight skinny” but “gay/on-camera fat.” Lovely. No more carbs.
- People who get arrested for shoplifting at Wal*Mart aren’t really setting their sights that high. Also, they look exactly like you expect.
- Every week we get more evidence that the case for man-made climate change is a fraud — manipulated data, destroyed records, outright admissions, assertions from grad students making their way into international reports – you name it. The whole of the movement supporting man-made global climate change every day looks more and more like carnival hucksters and scientific illiterates. And yet True Believers keep on holding on like believers in the Shroud of Turin. If you ever had doubts that modern environmentalism is a religious belief, there you go.
- Black socks make my feet smell funny in a way that white socks don’t. I’m sure someone can make something racist of this observation.
- Even though the British people have become gelded dependents in every other part of life, BBC still puts out some of the most politically incorrect stuff you’d never get on American TV.
