So, a potpourri of links:

1. A new faster search tool for MT blogs.
2. An Indian anthem that’s causing more of a ruckus than the Pledge of Allegiance is here.
3. Countering conservative anti-Episcopal rhetoric with a bit of “by their fruits shall you know them.”
4. Fact-checking an anti-Bill Ritter ad. Actually stumbled on this the other night, one of the few times I’ve watched local news in the past several months.
5. The Rise and Fall of Roger Rabbit.
6. Crap. Need to upgrade my wiki.
7. Not all “orthodox Christians” believe we were founded as “a Christian nation.”
8. I could use a better way to archive stuff out of Thunderbird.
9. The 911 Story, Comic Book Style.
10. Holy Hot Jupiters, Batman!
11. The rarest Calvin & Hobbes strip.
12. Inscribe your own Tarot Card.
13. Yet another anecdotal example of why Zero Tolerance is such a craptastic idea.
14. A pretty spiffy-looking service to make artwork from your MMORPG characters.
15. Google makes image tagging into a game. Clever.
16. Pope Benedict and evolution.

And just to add a bit more surreality …

Which is about all one needs to know to pas judgment on that legislation, you ask me.
