Weekly Roundup
Here some stories of interest from blogs around the world to provide you with a little weekend reading:
Big Hominid found my picture of vomit very satisfying. As I told him in my email, I saw a puddle of pink, ramen-filled projectile vomit and thought of him. At least it didn’t get on my bike. (don’t actually click unless you enjoy pictures of puke).
Californian Sojourn: offers his comments on liberals and other such types who cannot accept that Pat Tillman and tens of of thousands of others like him could actually want to serve their country for the simple reason that they want to give a little bit back to their country.
Cathartidae: Gets a double mention today. First, I believe the poor, misguided liberal is becoming more and more conservative everyday, as can be seen in this very un-liberal-like post about the stupidity and wrongness of South Korean sending aid to the North Korean train disaster victims. Also, he draws attention to the recent blog activity of “page 23, sentence 5″, which instructs you to “Grab the nearest book, turn to page 23, find the 5th sentence. Post the entire text of it, either here, or in your own blog. Add these instructions.” My nearest book is Richard Feynman’s “What Do YOU Care What Other People Think?” Sentence 5 of Page 23 reads, “You can see the condition I was in by my first words to her, which were an honest question: ‘How does it feel to be so popular?’”
Flying Yangban: has numerous posts about the North Korean Train explosion.
Kamelianxrays: gives us a nice summary of the weakness, cowardice, and stupidity of the Korean government in its dealings with North Korea. My comments were summed up a while ago in this post about giving aid and comfort to the enemy.
Kimchi GI: passes along the military’s request for ski resorts to return their borrowed Howitzers.
Marmot: has an amusing (morbidly so) story about North Koreans dieing while trying to save pictures of their alien overlords after the train accident.
Seeing Eye Blog has a nice snippet on media bias.
Oranckay: comments on US stars marrying Koreans and people of Korean descent. However, there is no mention of Red Foxx having also been married to a young Korean woman at the time of his death.
Brainy Smurf: is pulling the plug on his blog….OUT!
About Joel: I really need to get around to adding this fellow Utahn to my blog list. Consistently good stuff…in spite of having attended Weber State.
