Links (most recent first) that caught my eye, but did not warrant full-blown blog entries …. <\/p>\n
    \n
  1. It\u2019s The Ground Zero Mosque! It\u2019s The Ground Zero Mosque!\u00a0 A Stroll Around My Neighborhood, Part I | Rumproast<\/a> – Nice. The disconnect between what people think of as the Hallowed Exclusionary Zone of Ground Zero and its reality on the ground is … significant. Which makes me wonder what some folks would think is appropriate — level the site for three blocks around (existing Christian churches excluded, of course), and plant a garden of lawns, trees, and lots of statues of weeping angels?<\/li>\n
  2. Palin Is Ignorant, Not Stupid: For Palinists, That’s a Feature, Not a Bug : Mike the Mad Biologist<\/a> – “It’s tempting to say that she’s out of her depth because she is a policy ignoramus. While that’s partly correct, Palin, and many like her, don’t see politics as a way of fixing mundane, even if severe problems. For Palin, politics is a form of identity politics–a nasty, exclusionary kind of politics” An interesting thought. Does that make her followers, not conservatives, but conservativists?<\/li>\n
  3. Guinness records in pics | Curious, Funny Photos \/ Pictures<\/a> – Half the fun is just figuring out what the record is for.<\/li>\n
  4. Add “At” to Your Google Search for Site-Specific Results [Google]<\/a> – Nice. An incremental QOL improvement with natural language.<\/li>\n
  5. Stick Man Gif<\/a> – Amazing what you can fit into an animated GIF when you keep the byte count down …<\/li>\n
  6. Self Fulfilling Prophecy Is Self Fulfilling: Cheezburger Network<\/a><\/li>\n
  7. Turned up to Eleven<\/a> – I think we need Neil to write a 2-hour Doctor Who special, just of stuff that got cut out of the script.<\/li>\n
  8. Yawning Together \u00a7 SEEDMAGAZINE.COM<\/a> – Budgies yawn??<\/li>\n
  9. Franklin Graham Insists Obama \u201cBorn A Muslim\u201d<\/a> – Oooooh … the evil SEED OF ISLAM! Eek!<\/li>\n
  10. Neptune to Complete Its First Orbit Since Discovery in 1846<\/a> – People really don’t appreciate how relatively SLOW the universe is sometimes. I think that has an effect in all sorts of other areas.<\/li>\n
  11. World Blog – Scottish piper who led troops on D-Day dies<\/a> – Here’s to you, Billy.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
