A Concatenation of things I should've written on...

In tax resistance news, we have Arthur Farnsworth, a convicted tax resister, being released on April 15th, purely as an item of interest.

Stolen shamelessly from GunNuts radio, we have "Liberals We Can't stand", a charming little ditty...



And then a well-written and well-timed warning of the hazardous times we are now in, with the rule of the mob and the rabble-rouser replacing the rule of law, from Geek w/ a .45. Yes, Virginia, it CAN happen to you. Strongly recommended reading.

With the rather sensational title, Journolist Revealed! Inside the Secret Liberal Media E-Mail Cabal! , on-line magazine Slate reveals the troubling existence of a three hundred member group of liberal journalists apparently sharing sources, spins, and an apparent desire to present a unified message as "journalism". Again, recommended reading - not only is it good for you, but it will help you maintain a healthy level of skepticism.

In a delightful reference to the masterwork, The Moon is a Harsh Mistress by science fiction grand master Robert Heinlien, a new website, I am Simon Jester has popped up in response to the increasingly intrusive nature of our current administration.

On another irreverent note, the Empty Wallet Convoy & Funeral Procession has launched in New Jersey (of all places) , to point out to Dem. NJ Gov. Jon Corzine that "there ain't no more to tax, and ain't no more to spend. Sounds like a good companion activity to the Tea Parties.

The failed "Earth Hour" propaganda event appears to have made no net difference in power consumption in California, and likely not in saner climes either. Perhaps because of Human Achievement Hour?

Also in California - that state of deficits, dementia, and dizziness - we see a stunning new initiative proposed, to bar DARK COLORED CARS to reduce carbon emissions. Not as if folk could make up their own minds or anything.....

As a result of the Obama adminstrations heavy-handed scape-goating of AIG and harassment of Swiss financial firm UBS, an increasing number of Swiss financial firms are barring employee travel (business or personal) to prevent hostile governments (like, say, Obama's) from siezing said persons.

On March 23rd, two gay college-age men were beaten unconscious while on a late night beach stroll in Seaside, Oregon in yet another of an increased number of West Coast bashing incidents. Since education and diversity training aren't working out so well, what say we start encouraging our LGBT friends and family to implement practical and reality-based plans for personal safety - including firearms, for those with sufficient intestinal fortitude. I am mightily tired of hearing of this sort of event - I'd much rather hear of "the late John and Bob, in their attempt to assault two local gay men, suffered a sudden and massive case of lead poisoning."

Chicago residents, in what may be happy early signs of revolt against the House of Daley, have begun a Parking Revolt. Perhaps, from this seed, sanity will grow and return to Illinois (doubt it, though).

More later, in Concatenation, Pt II.
