No Runny Eggs

The repository of one hard-boiled egg from the south suburbs of Milwaukee, Wisconsin (and the occassional guest-blogger). The ramblings within may or may not offend, shock and awe you, but they are what I (or my guest-bloggers) think.

A tough week for Tim Pawlenty

by @ 20:41. Filed under Politics - National.

It’s hard to know how to read this one. On the one hand, Pawlenty was advocating a position that would align with McCain’s goofy gorebal warming perspective. On the other hand, getting shot down by the National Governor’s Association, an association Pawlenty leads, can’t help on the credibilty front.

I think Pawlenty may be in trouble as this is the second time he’s been thunked this week. Earlier in the week, Pawlenty was unable to hold  his minority, Minnesota House Republicans together to sustain his veto on the largest tax increase in Minnesota history.    This  could spell the end for Tim Pawlenty’s VP aspirations.

2/28/08 update: This portrayal of the NGA meeting makes it sound really bad for Pawlenty.

Rest in peace, William Buckley

I apologize for being late to the news, but William Buckley passed away this morning. May God comfort the Buckley family.

Roll bloat – very lazy edition

by @ 17:20. Filed under The Blog.

I should’ve done this months ago, but I’ve got a pair for your perusal:

– Gateway Pundit
– Wolking’s World

Did someone say Gorebal Warming?

by @ 17:18. Filed under Global "Warming".

(H/T – Gateway Pundit, who I really need to get in on the next roll bloat)

Lorne Gunter of Canada’s National Post has some rather interesting numbers and stats about this not-yet-over winter:

– Snow cover over North America, much of Siberia, much of Mongolia and much of China is greater than any time since 1966 (that’s right, sports fans, that’s before either Gorebal Warming or The Next Ice Age was all the rage among the envirowhackos)

– The U.S. National Climatic Data Center reported that January 2008 temperatures were 0.3 degrees (Fahrenheit) cooler than the 20th-century average

– Toronto just smashed their previous snowfall record, set in 1950 (again, before Gorebal Warming and The Next Ice Age)

– The Canadian Ice Service reports that the Arctic Ocean ice field is 4-8 inches thicker than last year

– The last time the Sun was as inactive as it is now, we had the Little Ice Age between 1350 and 1850

Guess Gorebal Warming isn’t as “real” as the socialists shoveling the bullshit would want us to believe.

AT THE MOVIES; Hollywood Soul-Searching

by @ 15:00. Filed under Miscellaneous.

That’s the title of this article in the New York Times.

I have to believe Terry Press of Dreamworks was referring to  the search for Hollywood’s  soul when he was quoted saying

”I don’t think Hollywood knows where its place is yet.”

Well, at least their looking.   I wonder if they’ll ever find one?
