It’s Easy To Pile On The Ice

by Smitty There was massive enthusiasm, about “The Green Zamboni – a Canadian icon fights climate change” just a couple of months ago. Zambonis at the men’s speedskating event at the Vancouver Winter Olympics were to be a vast improvement. Past all of the granola-head posturing, they were trying something new, as this blog did […]

Alan Colmes Asks After The Sugar

by Smitty Alan Colmes points out that the POTUS has a 53% approval rating in the latest polls. Colmes has a non-cranial point here: the Right-o-sphere should demonstrate more grace than the Left ever did for BHO’s predecessor. “Where is the sugar?” asks Alan.

Sarah Palin Mobbed in Daytona

She’s more popular than Danica Patrick! When NASCAR president Mike Helton acknowledged her as a special guest, she got the largest ovation from the room, packed from the front to the back with drivers, team members, support personnel and onlookers. After sitting through the meeting, Palin could not get out the door. Fans mobbed her, […]

The Protocols of the Elders of CTHULHU III. The Symbolic Squid

by Smitty (INTRODUCTION) There were figures far ahead, a couple behind, and one he was catching up to, breath coming out in vast white puffs in the morning calm as they walked up the path to the castle.
