X2 and T3

This was the weekend of sequels and single letters. We finally watched X2. It’s good; in fact, it’s better than the first one. But you definitely should have seen X-men before watching X2.

The blog central for information on the Bush claim that Iraq was trying to get… Continue reading Yellowcake and Moussaoui

Honda Civic R.I.P.

Bill Allison of Ideofact has moved to nice Movable Type digs. The best thing about his new site is the commenting system. His thoughtful and interesting posts have always provoked some response in me but I am too lazy to email it to him. Now, I can comment on his blog.
