Milton Friedman via Instapundit. It's short, so watch it all. . . he hits it outta the park. Something we should all realize and internalize . . . because he's right.

Wings. . .Factions. . . Democrats. . .
Whatever you want to call it doesn't matter, but the idea holds. . .
The Carter wing of the Democrat Party is now led by Barack Obama. The Clinton wing is out in the cold, so cold that it's literally being sent into exile with Hillary as Secretary of State.
For what it's worth, I prefer the Clinton wing of the Democrat Party to the Carter/Obama wing.

Fleet Foxes - White Winter Hymnal
Lyrics (only 52 words):
I was following the pack
all swallowed in their coats
with scarves of red tied 'round their throats
to keep their little heads
from fallin' in the snow
And I turned 'round and there you go
And, Michael, you would fall
and turn the white snow red as strawberries
in the summertime. . .
An eerie little ditty in a four-part harmony. At first listen you might feel a bit inspired, even euphoric, but listen again. . .

Merry Christmas, eat a kangaroo. . .
Let's talk about eating kangaroo. When I was a restauranteur, I put kangaroo on the menu. Yes, it was a bizarre move to serve kangaroo in the middle of Colorado; but it was something that we tested and played with using a variety of different sauces and preparations. Eventually we hit on a few preparations that made sense and had a good flavor profile. So we rotated them through the menu. They weren't stars by any means, but they weren't dogs either. Price points tended to the higher end, but you could also work out burgers and appetizers to balance a decent margin.
While this article about eating kangaroo is laden with the current "abrupt climate change" hysteria, the concept of consuming kangaroo makes sense on a number of different fronts. Kangaroo is a lean meat which can fit into health conscious consumer's diets. It's a tasty meat, a bit gamey, but no more so than elk; which can make for a fabulous meal for the adventurous. While I think environmental reasons are about the last reason for consuming kangaroo, I will suggest that one can "sell" this unconventional meat to customers, family or friends using that angle. This is one way to create some buzz among greenies and charge a premium for it if you're so inclined.
What attracts me most about eating kangaroo is the long term potential for a domesticated ranchable species which thrives on land that other livestock does not. That translates into some serious long term economic potential. Let's also give a nod to diversity of the food chain and a firm thumbs up for variety.
Oh yeah. . . Merry Christmas.

Congress gets a raise. . .
So. . . Congress. . . which is arguably the number one, most culpable, entity responsible for the current financial crisis has just allowed itself a pay raise.
Something like this makes me BEYOND angry. Seriously, when if first read this, I was sure that I was reading an old article, but nope, it's current. Then for the briefest instant, I could feel anger, but then it passed into a sense of calm. I realize that I've never actually been this angry before. It's simply that I don't have a point of reference for the feelings I have.
I will say that if someone came to me and laid out the plans for revolution. . . I'd seriously give him a listen.

Global Warming My Ass. . .
See that?? That's a New Orleans streetcar with snow "sticking". When will this farsical BS of global warming be called for what it is. . . a total charade.
Here's a bunch of scientists blasting the global warming cult. It's a good start.
But. . . did you see that? That was snow in New Orleans. . . that's like only one step removed from hell freezing over.
