Maureen Dowd and Flag Pins Will Decide the Election

Oh Maureen, Maureen! I thought I knew you! Gone now, are your glory days when you were the answer to my most pressing exigencies; when on a wall by my bed, affixed to a glass box containing a towel, hand lotion and your cherished daguerreotype nudie, you were the answer to every midnight crisis, and every 3:00 a.m. call. Gone now, are the days when every time I pass by a fire hose encasement I stop in my tracks and remember our secret covenant: “In Case of Emergency Break Glass”. I would remember your coy little monochrome grin, your inviting, ample bosom, your freakishly enormous pudenda, beckoning me behind a similarly marked glass. How many times did I shatter that glass with a mighty swing of my love sausage? I can’t count that high. […]

In a new feature we’ll call The Literary Bucket List, we’ll review books you should read before you die, particularly if your death is imminent and you want to die laughing, informed, happy, comforted, or all of the above. The first book to fall under this heading is… […]

Do Copyright Claims Supersede the 4th Amendment?

In some cases, one IP address can cover several residences (as in a university) or even a city block. And all I know is that someone on that block or city IP address may have my CD. Actually, I can’t even say I know for sure. This is all provided that the IP I have was not spoofed in the first place. […]

RFK Eulogy by Ted Kennedy, 1968

At a time when Sen. Ted Kennedy had just been diagnosed with brain cancer, and Hillary's attempt to win his endorsement failed, she brings up the memory of the Robert F.
