World Cup Overkill: Associated Press Writes 1,068 Words About 1-1 Tie

There ought to be some kind of special Pulitzer for this: Clint Dempsey became only the second American to score in two World Cups, getting the tying goal in the 40th minute on a blunder by goalkeeper Robert Green. Howard made six saves, withstanding a second-half barrage by Wayne Rooney and his celebrated teammates. . . […]

Ace of Spades Smacks Charles Johnson in a Post Every New* Blogger Should Read

* And by “new,” I mean if you haven’t been at it since Ace started with a Blogspot site in 2003. When trying to explain the principle of reciprocal linkage (Rule 2), I’ve often wanted to quote a post Ace of Spades wrote about three years ago, in which he explained how you link somebody so as […]

Terrorist Jihad vs. the Tip Jar

What just happened to Pamela Geller at Atlas Shrugs ought to scare the bejeebers out of every blogger: Paypal is calling Atlas a “hate” site and will close my account if I do not remove the paypal option from my website.
