Sinai and Station Wagons

I assume most everyone has seen this, but I feel obliged to at least mention it here: The Vatican has issued a ten commandments for drivers [http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070619/ap_on_re_eu/vatican_road_rage]. My commentary is in italics. 1. You shall not kill.

The Tuesday Eudemon

A teenager in intensive care unplugged his neighbour's life support machine because the noise was keeping him awake [http://www.ananova.com/news/story/sm_2381098.html?menu=news.quirkies]. How can a guy in intensive care do that? I thought people in intensive care were in the

Return to Monday

I want the drinking age lowered [https://thedailyeudemon.com/5527/], but this [http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D8PPES2O0&show_article=1] is a bit much: > A toddler who was served a margarita at a restaurant earlier this week is doing well, and investigators say the incident

Quick-Hitting Eudemon

Fat rant: A woman videos herself, saying it's okay to be fat, and now she's the darling of YouTube [http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,281655,00.html]. Why is this news? Is it a coincidence that such a rant is popular in a culture

No Eudemon

Worked 7:30 to 8:30 yesterday. Today promises another 12-14 hours. No time for anything, including blogging. I did see today is the memorial of St. Anthony Padua. Realizing I know little about him, I looked him up in the Penguin Dictionary of Saints. I found this interesting:

No Hitter!

Justin Verlander becomes the first Tiger to throw a no-hitter at Comerica Park [http://scores.espn.go.com/mlb/boxscore?gameId=270612106]. Perhaps it bodes well for the Tigers. The last time a Tiger threw a no-hitter, the Tigers won the World Series. List of no-hitters throughout

Ron Paul

One reason I haven't jumped on the Ron Paul ship is because I'm not sure he's a legitimate candidate (why spend time reading up on him, if there's no way he'll get the nod?). That might now change: > Congressman
