Quote of the day – Tic-Tac-Doh Edition

December 15, 2009

One senses that if they all put their heads together, it’s still doubtful they could beat a carnival chicken at Tic-Tac-Toe. – Jonah Goldberg


Quote of the Day – Diminished Edition

October 9, 2009

Mr Obama becomes the third sitting US President to receive the prize. The committee said today that he had “captured the world’s attention”. It is certainly true that his energy and aspirations have dazzled many of his supporters. Sadly, it seems they have so bedazzled the Norwegians that they can no longer separate hopes from achievement. The achievements of all previous winners have been diminished. – Times of London Commentary


Quote of the Day – Destiny Edition

September 17, 2009

Donald D. Rice (the bugler killed with a samurai sword) controlled his own destiny. He could have easily avoided his own death. – Commenter at the Baltimore Sun

Whenever the question of whether your possessions are worth someone’s life, remember, the person protecting their possessions, and quite often their life, didn’t make the decision. The person who broke in decided that whatever they might be able to take was worth more than the risk of dying. Maybe not consciously, but they knew that it was a risk, and they decided to take it.

Quote of the Day – Unintended Consequences Edition

September 1, 2009

Legislatures at all levels are prime case studies in unintended consequences, and the only thing more appalling than the blatant partisan self-interest exercised by both parties is the invariable attempt to mask that self-interest as “the will of the people”, and “what’s best for the state/country.” – Marko


Quote of the Day – Alternative Lifestyle Edition

August 31, 2009

Mike and I always get a kick out of lefties in a tizzy so we decided to strap on our pistols and visit Whole Foods. I considered open carry for a moment but then thought it might be too much for the usual clientele and decided to be merciful. Besides, I wasn’t really in the mood for being interrogated in the frozen food aisle. (Hey! What about my alternative lifestyle?) – Breda
