Sorry about the intermittant posting, folks. You know, the ‘holidays’ and all. But here’s what I’ve found for you today. Canada Ontario takes top honours for Nanny State-of-the-year. Canadian soldiers are being investigated for “improper conduct” in death of suspected insurgent. World New Year’s celebrations in much of the Arab world have been canceled to [...]
Clint Eastwood has made some great movies, with more than a few landing in my top 25. So I was excitied to see Gran Torino, Eastwood’s latest actor/director effort. Internet scuttlebutt billed this as a “Dirty Harry 6″, where Clint goes after ne’er-do-wells in one last shoot ‘em up action flick. Wrong. This is a thoughful, quiet film about [...]

George W. Bush must be getting pretty depressed. I mean, if my legacy were a burned-over wasteland painted with tears, I’d be bummed too. But amidst disastrous foreign wars and economic collapse, perhaps there is a little solace from an unlikely source: the guy who whipped his shoes at the soon-to-be ex-President. Muntadar al-Zeidi has [...]
