Kelo: Nothing New

June 27, 2005

The blogosphere is buzzing about Kelo v. New London. Last week the Supreme Court turned the “public use” clause of the Fifth Amendment on its head. Local governments now have the power to snatch private property for “economic development” whether such development benefits the public or not. Nutshell: In 1996 the feds closed the Naval [...]

Group Blogging?

June 24, 2005

Should I turn LBC into a group blog? Why or why not? Update (2:15 p.m.): I appreciate the responses from all. Trying to run a business takes a lot of patience, persistence, stamina, and creative energy. I had more time to blog when I was working a 9-5 job. Being self-employed is anything but 9-5. [...]

Should Karl Rove Apologize?

June 24, 2005

Of course not. Apologize for what? Telling the truth? Only a backward-thinking fool could come up with something that hare-brained. Karl Rove said what is obviously true: Democrats are soft on terrorism. Most Democrats, at least the ones in Congress, are opposed to taking a hard line against terrorism simply because George Bush is in [...]

Lionel Tate’s Accuser Recants

June 23, 2005

Since I ragged on Lionel Tate, the 18-year-old who killed a little girl when he was 12, it’s only fair to report the latest developments. Last month he was accused of robbing a pizza delivery man at gunpoint, but the 13-year-old kid who said Tate did it recanted his statement: Lawyer James Lewis said the [...]

Slave Reparations and Linda Foley

June 23, 2005

What do the two have in common? Probably nothing. Various members of The Conservative Brotherhood have blogged about reparations, and I encourage you to visit and comment: Booker Rising, Michael King, Michael Bowen, and Scott Wickham. Also visit Media Slander. We’re stepping up the Linda-Foley-must-resign-as-Guild-president meme. See Linda Foley, Where’s the Evidence? for background.

War of the Worlds

June 23, 2005

I love old time radio. Forget Tom Cruise and his new movie, War of the Worlds. Listen instead to the 1938 radio broadcast based on the 1898 novel by H.G. Wells. Download the broadcast here. If that link doesn’t help you, try this one, although it takes forever to download. Or you can read the [...]

Blog Power

June 23, 2005

Readers know by now that I’m a blogger’s blogger, a staunch advocate of the new medium (and marketing tool). We’ve witnessed the power of a blog swarm and the reluctance of leftist media to report objectively about scandals involving Democrats. It was the blogosphere that forced Sen. Richard Durbin to apologize for comparing American interrogators [...]

Tracking Down IPs

June 22, 2005

I know how to trace the path of an e-mail, but is it possible to track down the sender’s IP address through the e-mail? Contact me with the technical info. Update: I figured it out. Now I’m going to try to get somebody fired. Stay tuned…

Third world slums coming to a neighborhood near you. (Along with more irritating web site registrations.)

Traditionally Yours

June 22, 2005

Whenever I tell men that I’m a “traditional” woman, they laugh. Yeah, right! They see a modern, outspoken, ambitious, professional woman supporting herself and taking risks. They assume I’ve chosen this life over that of wife and mother. I explain to them that since I’m unmarried, I must support myself. Who else is going to [...]

Senator Richard Durbin – All Apologies

June 21, 2005

I haven’t been following the Dickie Durbin controversy, but I’ve been told he’s apologized, with tears and all, for comparing the American interrogators at Gitmo to Nazis and Soviets. Let’s go to the videotape. More at Yahoo! news. And here’s a little Dr. Seuss for the senator’s cooked goose. Update (6/22): From Michelle Malkin’s latest [...]

Christian Offerings

June 21, 2005

I don’t blog enough about Christian bloggers and sites. I’m stuck on the one-note political posts, and I’ve got to get out of the rut. Look for a few format changes at LBC. I blogged about Stacy Harp and one of her businesses, Mind & Media, last week. Stacy promotes Christian products, including books and [...]

Tuesday Linkage

June 21, 2005

Today is Tuesday, isn’t it? Now that I’m not going out to work every day, the days seem to blend together. Here’s a list of blogs and announcements: Blogger Michael “Bunker Mulligan” Reed died earlier this month (see this post), and his family has posted pictures on his blog. I’ll be on Pundit Review radio [...]

Geek Jobs Outsourced

June 21, 2005

Have you ever wanted to be a programmer? I did. Back in 1984, I was “afraid” of the Apple computers sitting in the back of the classroom gathering dust. They seemed so complicated. At the same time I thought it would be cool to write computer languages, but I didn’t think I was smart enough. [...]
