Links (most recent first) that caught my eye, but did not warrant full-blown blog entries …. <\/p>\n

  1. \n
    YouTube – \u202aThe Star Wars Zone\u202c\u200f<\/div>\n

    <\/a> – It’s a GOOD thing you sent your father out to the corn field, Luke!<\/li>\n

  2. Complaint Box: How E-Readers Destroyed My Love Life – NYTimes.com<\/a> – The flip side to the “My ereader helps me avoid the embarrassment of publicly reading a book with a truly awful cover” advantage.<\/li>\n
  3. Ohio GOP Weakens Election Law By Allowing Poll Workers To Refuse To Inform Voters Where They Can Vote | ThinkProgress<\/a> – By hook or by crook.<\/li>\n
  4. Sheldon: Gay Activism Is “The Very Face Of Evil”<\/a> – Don’t beat around the bush, Lou … tell us what you REALLY think.<\/li>\n
  5. AFA Says “No Political Candidates Will Be Speaking” At Gov. Perry’s Prayer Rally<\/a> – Sorry, unless Gov. Perry has pledged NOT to run for President — or for Governor again, or for anything else in his lifetime — then he is<\/b> a political candidate. And I’ll be you dollars to donuts he’ll be speaking. So I’d call Donald Wildmon a liar in this.<\/li>\n
  6. Capitalism Win of The Day: Texas Town Fires Police Force To Balance Budget<\/a> – Atlas smirked.<\/li>\n
  7. Giving away the argument<\/a> – “At this point, no matter what happens the deal is a disaster. Democrats have offered up cuts in health care programs to raise the debt limit –<\/s> a previously pro-forma vote that the Republicans already said they would raise. Who knows what else they’re going to give up before it’s all said and done?” \/facepalm<\/li>\n
  8. Us claims all .com and .net websites are in its jurisdiction- The Inquirer<\/a> – And then Americans wonder why other countries don’t like and appreciate and respect us.<\/li>\n
  9. Facebook blocks friend export tool in Google+ snub<\/a> – Facebook: the AOL of the 21st Century. Rather than make an awesome garden to encourage people to stay, they have inward pointing barbed wire to make sure that people (or their data) doesn’t escape.<\/li>\n
  10. Why Anti-Marriage Equality Groups Don\u2019t Pose A Serious Threat To Pro-Marriage Republicans<\/a> – I have to wonder whether these folks really are so ideologically fixated on gay marriage as the End of Civilization, or if it’s just something they can garner contributions about. It just sure seems to me that $20MM could do a lot more to help people than plowing it into political races over the matter.<\/li>\n
  11. Sen. Jim DeMint: President Obama is an \u201caddict\u201d | The State Column<\/a> – Stay classy, Jimmy!<\/li>\n
  12. Monkey Hijacks Photographer\u2019s Camera and Shoots Self-Portraits<\/a> – HA!<\/li>\n
  13. How To Track Kindle eBook Prices – GalleyCat<\/a> – I’ll be curious to see how long Amazon allows this. Also: only 6 months?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
