I introduced everybody to the new Brother Paul archive (brother_paul) a few weeks back. Not sure how many have checked it out. If you haven’t, we just posted another bit, this from 1996. This one examines Ross Perot’s VP short list…. Have a look.

First, feel free to ignore this post. Seriously. You’ll see why in a second. I recently made a decision about my life – if you read the blog entry entitled “More lullaby, less pit,” you know what I’m talking about.

Meet LJ’s newest member: felixwas. It took awhile, but I finally roped another guy into the blogosphere. He’s smart as hell and a great writer and an even better person to just know. So stop by, see what he has to say, introduce yourself, make him feel welcome.

Brian (angliss)at Daedalnexus points out new research that seems to seriously certify global warming claims. It will be interesting to see how the see-no-evil crowd rebuts the latest.
