The Incompetance Mirror I’ve been attentively watching the media tempest around the things the FBI and CIA missed before September 11th. It seems that we had all the clues and just didn’t put them together. There seems to be a lot of gnashing of teeth over this. The rhetoric is hip-deep and rising, and it […]

Usually, Salon leaves the depressing comics to Carol Lay. But, today, Keith gets in on the action.

Tom Tomorrow, my Chevy Blazer and I hate you. You make so much sense, yet, I am somehow driven to now drive more and more, driving over mountain roads, spinning out in wet parking lots and for some odd reason I want to drive into the ocean to show my car’s unique ability to navigate […]

You know, in the old days, if you didn’t agree with the other side, you at least made the appearance of trying to hear both sides. I have a real problem with a completely pro-business administration. I mean, at least make it look like you care about the rest of us. Read if for yourself.

I am so tempted. Unfortunately, I can’t because I work for the company that owns HBO, but man would I love it. Every time I think I understand the system, something happens to shake my faith it. This whole thing with Cheney and refusing to turn over documents about the energy taskforce is driving me […]

I just realized today that they haven’t had Indian food in the cafeteria since September 11th. How odd.
