Thursday Grab Bag

Am I the only person who reads a story like this and thinks, "Gays throwing rocks through radio station windows"? KSFB-AM 1260 signed on Dec. 10 as Immaculate Heart Radio in the San Francisco Bay Area, the newest outlet in a prospering Catholic radio network and possibly the largest single Catholic radio station in the country.

Yikes. This picture from Drudge is a bit unsettling. I think I've seen it before, but after the primary, it's eerie:

You won't find much overt political talk here, primarily because politics bores me in an odd way: My interest heightens at points, but then I quickly tire of it. It's kind of like miles and miles of car wrecks. Each one is interesting, but after awhile, it's hard to crane your neck any more.

But I find this New Hampshire hype ridiculous. I believe McCain won New Hampshire the last time he around, but he quickly folded afterwards. If that's the case, why are people thinking New Hampshire is anything but an aberration? As for Hillary, I have no opinion, other than to point out that New Hampshire doesn't appear to be a good barometer for the rest of the nation. Oh well. We'll see.

Real life (so to speak) Weekend at Bernie's: Two men have been arrested in New York for wheeling a dead friend through the streets in an office chair and trying to cash his cheque. "The witnesses saw the two pushing the chair with Cintron flopping from side to side and the two individuals propping him up.".

School Refuses To Let Boy Join Cheerleading Squad. Why shouldn't the school drag him along as a cheerleader? All sorts of high schools around here are letting girls on their boys' wrestling teams, a development that makes me want to sequester myself and entire family in a self-sufficient hermitage, for fear that we can't fit into the modern world unless we're prepared to renounce every fiber of reason and morality in our souls.
