How long have I been doing this? Oh well; let’s continue flying…

- Ace caught Mad Vlad’s man in the oil business saying, “You ain’t seen nothin’ yet on these prices.” Tell me again how the Sovie…er, Russia is now our friend.
- Lawhawk explores using the gas weapon on Iran. No, not the ones that Saddam Hussein used; the ones the lieberals are using against us (the lack of refining capacity).
- Jim Lynch puts the ‘Rat energy policy in a nutshell (with the emphasis on “nut”).
- Dad29 has a plan to get back to $2.10/gallon gas.
- It isn’t through biodiesel; James Wigderson asks whether we taxpayers can get our $250,000 back after construction on the biodiesel plant planned for Evansville was stopped because of "rapidly rising commodity prices and the decision by a key lender to withdraw from its loan commitment."
- Just because I can, Allahpundit has tape of Michelle Malkin offering the sane solution to the oil crisis. PSA time – Everybody, sign Newt Gingrich’s petition ; Wisconsinites, also sign Phil Williamson’s petition.
- Slublog wishes John McCain wouldn’t go off the rails. Same here, Slu; I just don’t have the mad SluShop Skillz.
- Ed Morrissey has news of a new “conservatives-only” PAC started up by Sen. Jim DeMint. Sounds interesting.
- Plebian breaks out in song to Barack Obama. Trust me, it’s wicked good (besides, would I Rick-roll you?).
- Dean has the dream ticket for Republicans. I will say this, an Obama/Hillary Clinton ticket would ensure that the Dems are not competitive in the “mushy middle”.
- Bull Dog Pundit asks, “What makes a profit a ‘windfall’?” Answer; not enough cash kicked back to the party in power, specifically, the ‘Rats.
- Anwyn lays the linguistic smackdown on “education”.
- Speaking of education, Chris the head barkeep (or more-accurately, his oldest son) found out the hard way that grades bear little correlation to one’s accomplishments. I’ll remind everybody that Albert Einstein was considered a failure in mathematics.
- Uncle Jimbo has unleashed the Dead Tangos: The Totally Unrated DVD. My birthday’s coming up soon (hint, hint).
- Doubleplusundead has some Peeps video for those of you already jonesing for more HamNation. Air Peeps!
- Paddy O’Furniture breaks out a laundry list of how stupid we’ve become over the last 50 years. I know Paddy usually doesn’t look for publicity, but this one’s just too good.
- William Teach figures out which party is truly responsible for Gorebal “Warming”. Do note that it is a demonstrated fact that highly-urban areas are warmer than rural areas, and also note which party tends to dominate highly-urban areas.
- Fred has the Drinking Right Quotes from last night. As always, they’re taken way out of context.
- There are a bunch of places I could have taken this one from, but since Kevin Fischer asked whether the NBA has turned into the WWE, I’ll use him as the source. To answer the question it’s not a corinkidink that the most-obvious examples, as well as the one that’s the subject of the hot-and-heavy rumors, happened while the NBA was on NBC, and that NBC is the longtime home of what is now the WWE on network TV.
Let’s see if I can come up with some good stuff for Silent E while he’s on vacation. I’m one of those he left the keys of the blog to (I helped move his and Kate’s blogs to a more-reliable server).
