what do you want from me?
But I finally caught one of those Sarah Palin’s reality show (is this happening?) commercials and she says something like…I don’t want to be stuck in some political office, I’d rather be out here being free.
OKAY, WELL THEN YOU PROBABLY SHOULDN’T RUN FOR PRESIDENT THEN!

(i wrote the following in response to this bit by one of magik bird’s guest hosts)
correlation is not causation, sir. that you didn’t like the movie and that it was arguably a bad adaptation of the books is only your opinion, and has no actual bearing on the fact that it only made back expenses and didn’t earn a sequel.
yes, the movie is popularly considered to be a...

Wondermark » The Story Gains a Villain (Kind of) →
Machine of Death rose to #1 on Amazon and stayed there for over twenty-four hours. We accomplished everything we set out to do. Agents, publishers, retailers, distributors, well-wishers and the press have been flooding our email inbox. I can’t stress this enough: It worked. We won!
Once we hit #1, I called an agent I’ve worked with in the past — one who’d tried to sell MOD before but just...

Retired chaplains warn against 'don't ask' repeal... →
If a chaplain preaches against homosexuality, he could conceivably be disciplined as a bigot under the military’s nondiscrimination policy, the retired chaplains say. The Pentagon, however, says chaplains’ religious beliefs and their need to express them will be respected.
Clergy would be ineligible to serve as chaplains if their churches withdraw their endorsements, as some have...

He’s still in jail today. A couple quotes from his mom on the facebook page, Fight Against Autism and Police Injustice:
