- Its hot at the moment, being close to 95 outside. In my office, here it’s 72. (My office, and my server rooms are in the basement of the house, and therefore my computers and routers and so on all stay comfortable.. it’s a bit warmer in the rest of the house… say, 77 or so.) In my memory, it’s not all that unusual, around here. There are a number of people making an awful lot of noise about how this is all “climate change” (have you noticed they stop talking about “global warming” when one of their dog and pony shows was ill-attended, supposedly, because of the cold?.. and of course there were many in the whacko ward, who claimed that the cold was also due to global warming. Amazing, the links they will go to, to bypass facts everybody else’s early figured out. ) The bottom line though, is it gets warm in the northeast during the summer. Sometimes, for days at a time. In other headlines, large light is expected in the eastern sky tomorrow morning.
- Anyone who has read this site for any length of time will know very well that I have great deal of respect for Michelle Malkin. So I am not at all being disrespectful when I comment on an article she’s run recently as regards Julian Bond and the NAACP kicking off their annual “racial demagoguery-fest with a rip-roaring, Bush-bashing, blame-deflecting diatribe.” my comment is that this is hardly news. Now if Julian bond had actually been a reasonable being, and stopped with the race huckstering… that would have been news. Still, I suppose somebody’s got to do it, since the mainstream media seems to have abdicated its responsibility in that area.
- Why am I not surprised that the recent article as regards Fred Thompson being hired by an abortion lobbyists, has more holes in than does Al Gore’s head?
- I note James Joyner talking about how German police and broken into a apartment thinking they were going to find a dead body after neighbors complained about nasty smell coming up the staircase… turns out to have been the guy’s feet. And yes, he was fine. I am reminded of a story I ran back into thousand four, where that 480lb. woman had died after six years of living on the couch… I commented at the time: “So let me get this right; The smell is so bad that everyone has to go in in rubber suits and they had to run fans into the place…and yet nobody in the next apartment can smell this for the last five years? Here’s an apartment complex where I want to live, gang…” So if that didn’t raise a peep of complaint out of the neighbors, how bad does this mean the guy’s smelly feet were? Sheesh!
- For the last two years, now, WCBS FM in New York City (101.1) has been trying new formats… following its untimely abandonment of the oldies format that it ran for years and years. Scott Fybush is reporting that as of 1:01pm on July 12th, Oldies are back at WCBS-FM. It’s good to see. Now, comes the issue of whether not the rest of the stations around the country that tried the same formats that WCBS-FM tried, will be going back to the formats THEY were on as well. Such as in my hometown, WBBF.
- Speaking of radio, I gather that the blithering idiot, Don Imus, will be attempting a comeback in January. according to insiders, there in a hurry to get him back in front of a microphone prior to the next presidential election. Gee, I wonder who Imus will be backing?
