Late day snarks
Now that’s one hell of a wave: The Japanese tsunami cracked the ice shelf in Antarctica, hard enough to cause new icebergs. Expect the global warming idiots to ignore this evidence, or spin it as AGW. There’s gold in them … Continue reading

Friday, snarkly, briefly
But it’s the holy armistice time, or something: Say, remember when the media was all over the “You can’t war on Muslims during Ramadan! theme? Well, it’s Ramadan, and Syrian forces are shelling the crap out of Hama, especially during … Continue reading
