Until my arrival in the United States, Thanksgiving day was a mere footnote in whatever I had learned about what would be my new home. There was some history, some common practices, but for the most part, the holiday itself was a foreign event. Besides, Filipinos usually appreciate what they have and each other during… Continue reading this entry
It isn’t just Ann; after having a rough morning at work it’s way cool. It can be argued that it’s quite unnecessary for such a tool, but we humans crave customization, even if the only end is to please our aesthetic needs.
It’s been an exciting year in politics, but now that we have a result and my commentary will move to a more activist tone, I’ve decided to do majority of my poli-blogging on RedState. I might write an occasional polemic at AIR if I get Misha’s blessing. I do this because I intend to make… Continue reading this entry
Mark Hemingway and Ramesh at NRO today linked “from 52 to 48 with love,” a cam-shot project reminiscent of that one site that came up after GWB’s 2004 victory.

Before the election results started to come in, I was musing about how, for the past eight years, the folks on the left foamed… Continue reading this entry
I know I’m late to the game but I’m placing my bet this close to the election: I’m calling PA, OH, and FL for McCain and VA, NM, CO for BHO. There’s a few other scenarios for a McCain victory, all of which I would consider wildly optimistic: 277-261: Scenario above, but McCain gets CO… Continue reading this entry
Let’s get out of the way, the case against BHO. At first, I approchaed BHO with the scorn you would a petulant child who thinks he’s the shit. The ads of ridicule from the McCain campaign reflected the disdain for his celebrity status. But, as time wore on and smaller investigative outlets actually did their… Continue reading this entry

They find that he has assumed the name Harold Saxon, and has become the Prime Minister of the UK. Using a network of… Continue reading this entry
