Links (most recent first) that caught my eye, but did not warrant full-blown blog entries …. <\/p>\n
    \n
  1. Dealing with haters<\/a> – In fact, dealing with almost any sort of conflict situation. Words I need to remember …<\/li>\n
  2. Chaos in Colorado<\/a> – I’ll be honest and say that I’m sitting this primary out; neither Bennet nor Romanoff has me enthused, except that either of them has my vote against any of the GOP (plus Tancredo) candidates.<\/li>\n
  3. Eric Hananoki: Breitbart blogger (and ex- L&O actor) Moriarty: 9-11 and Oklahoma City were inside jobs<\/a> – I actually preferred Moriarty’s Ben Stone to Sam Watterson’s Jack McCoy — but Moriarty’s “erratic” behavior led him to quit the show, and he’s quite evidently spiraled downhill ever since. That Breitbart continues to feature him as a contributor speaks (sad) volumes.<\/li>\n
  4. Sharpie Liquid Pencil writes and erases like a pencil, dries like a Sharpie (video hands-on!) — Engadget<\/a><\/li>\n
  5. Lexington: Build that mosque | The Economist<\/a> – “America is plainly safer if its Muslims feel part of ‘us’ and not, like Mohammad Sidique Khan, part of ‘them’. And that means reminding Americans of the difference\u2014a real one, by the way, not one fabricated for the purposes of political correctness\u2014between Islam, a religion with a billion adherents, and al-Qaeda, a terrorist outfit that claims to speak in Islam\u2019s name but has absolutely no right or mandate to do so. Why would any responsible American politician want to erase that vital distinction? Good question.”<\/li>\n
  6. Kids Who Watch Popeye Cartoons Eat More Vegetables<\/a> – Despite the skepticism in the comments, I know that part of my love of spinach came from Popeye. (In fact, I used to call it by his name when I was Quite Young.)<\/li>\n
  7. OffWorld Designs<\/a> – Best t-shirt booth at the San Diego Comic-Con. If I wasn’t in danger of being drowned by the t-shirts I alredy own, I could have bought a dozen of these.<\/li>\n
  8. Official Adam Hughes Website<\/a> – I love Adam Hughes’ work. Really. If I were a divorce fanboy with money to burn, I’d have it up all over the walls.<\/li>\n
  9. GOP-linked punk rock ministry says executing gays is \u2018moral\u2019 \u00ab Minnesota Independent: News. Politics. Media.<\/a> – Lovely. Note the ties to Tom Emmer and Michelle Bachmann.<\/li>\n
  10. Gaslight Gathering<\/a> – For those steampunk types in SoCal … this looks like it should be a ripping good time.<\/li>\n
  11. RED – Official Movie Website<\/a> – We saw the trailer for this at the San Diego Comic-Con multiple times. It was amusing every time.<\/li>\n
  12. katiecandraw.com<\/a> – Katie Cook was one of the “guest” artists at the Quick Draw at the San Diego Comic-con. She seems like a nice lady.<\/li>\n
  13. CO GOP candidate worries bike-share program \u2018may not be compatible with our state constitution.\u2019<\/a> – It’s like THE ENTIRE WORLD IS FULL OF FURRINERS!!!!!!<\/li>\n
  14. Ellison Responds To Pawlenty: He\u2019s So Desperate To Be President That He\u2019s Willing To Dishonor The Constitution<\/a> – That’s about the size of it.<\/li>\n
  15. Echo Chernik – Art Nouveau Illustration<\/a> – We bought our Official Piece o’ Art at the San Diego Comic-Con from her.<\/li>\n
  16. Twittermergency<\/a> – Woot!<\/li>\n
  17. Devolving America \u2014 the Reagan Revolution<\/a> – “This is the Reagan Revolution. I hate to be blunt, but anyone who voted twice for Reagan voted for this \u2014 the devolution of America.”<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
