Haha, now this is funny. Rock musicians have these things called “riders.” They’re basically lists of thing that the performer wants in their dressing rooms, be it food, liquor, certain types of furniture, etc.
Well, Cheney has a “rider” and one of the demands is that any television in his room(s) should already be tuned [...]

Insults for Fun and Profit

By Callimachus | Related entries in History, Kitchen Sink

Bored, bored, bored. Won’t you all be glad when Blogger comes back to life and I can go back to posting at my own place?
It occurs to me that some commenters need practice in insults. I understand the habit doesn’t come naturally to every soul. But we “centrists” ought to eschew the Neanderthal grunts of [...]

Gentlemen, it is said, prefer blondes. So did cavemen.

Almost the only sustenance in northern Europe came from roaming herds of mammoths, reindeer, bison and horses. Finding them required long, arduous hunting trips in which numerous males died, leading to a high ratio of surviving women to men.
