Links (most recent first) that caught my eye, but did not warrant full-blown blog entries …. <\/p>\n
    \n
  1. \u2018Questionable Content\u2019 Cartoonist Jeph Jacques On Post-College Career Paths, the Space Program, and What He\u2019s Learned From Readers | ThinkProgress<\/a> – I started reading QC after last year’s SD Comic Con. It’s good stuff, IMO (though I think the SF angle gets a bit too much play in this article).<\/li>\n
  2. First synthetic organ transplant paves way for post-op, immunosuppresive drug-free future<\/a> – Very cool.<\/li>\n
  3. Eight States Revive Jim Crow\u2019s Constitution To Enact Unconstitutional Gun Law<\/a> – Nice: if you don’t like the law, just declare, really confidently, that you don’t have to follow it.<\/li>\n
  4. If you buy organic water you\u2019re a fucking idiot.<\/a> – Yup.<\/li>\n
  5. mental_floss Blog \u00bb 25 Words You Might Not Know Are Trademarked<\/a><\/li>\n
  6. Nation & World | AP source: FBI probing News Corp. 9\/11 phone link | Seattle Times Newspaper<\/a> – (Chortles fiendishly)<\/li>\n
  7. Fox Host Eric Bolling: \u2018I Don\u2019t Remember Any Terrorist Attacks On American Soil\u2019 Between 2000 And 2008 | ThinkProgress<\/a> – Yeah, let me inform you of some inconvenient facts, Eric …<\/li>\n
  8. Liberty Counsel Declares Its Independence: “We Do Not Suffer Tyrants!”<\/a> – Well, good for you, Liberty Counsel. But tell me, what does this really mean? The original DoI signers were arguably committing treason and literally taking up arms (or funding those who were). Is that what you’re doing? Or is this just cranky, attention\/contribution-getting rhetoric?<\/li>\n
  9. Annals of Global Warming: Toles cartoon, seven years ago we were a decade overdue for action<\/a> – Sadly, I remember this cartoon coming out. Aaaaand not much more has happened.<\/li>\n
  10. Ha, Evilutionists, you can’t explain this!<\/a> – Wow. That’s really … um … stupid.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
