Rational Conservatism from the Rocky Mountains
This could well be Newt’s last stand… As the primaries move north Mitt will have more of an edge and Newt more of a hurdle. The nomination has always been Mitt’s to lose, and he’s doing just enough to not lose it. As to whether he can actually win the election? Well, he has three [...]
Average American worker spends $1,000 on coffee. American’s weakness for coffee is proven once again in a new survey conducted by Accounting Principals . In a telephone survey of 1,000 Americans who were currently employed, ages 18 or older, the participators were asked how much money they spend on “work-related” expenses. Despite recent tough economic [...]
Remember this post from 2006 I am currently working on a project that advances some of this technology. So I not only predicted it, I am helping to make it happen. Pretty cool.
Why would anyone waste even ten minutes watching or listening to the Prevaricator in Chief lie about the state of the union and his responsibility for how miserable it is? Frankly I’d rather have a tooth crowned. Which luckily, is exactly what I was doing tonight during the SotU speech. So I’m good.

And this once plodding area of scientific study has become one of the more active and interesting areas of paleology, archaeology and the intersection of the two (sometimes called [...]
So… I am pretty well convinced that this country has crossed the border from the fertile heartland of opportunity to the barren wastelands of the Atlas Shrugged zone. So the question is, what sort of career path should the Cosmic Children follow in a Shrugging Atlas world? I mean there’s the obvious “take what the [...]
Oh… wait.
One of Europe’s largest cruise ships, the Costa Concordia, carrying 4200 passengers and crew, suffered a fatal and spectacular accident on Saturday.
