America Speaking Out
A new site introduced by the Republican Party is called America Speaking Out, which is designed to...well, I'll let them tell it:
This site was developed as part of an official effort to increase the dialogue between Americans and their Congress. Here, Americans are provided a new platform to share their priorities and ideas for a national policy agenda. As Republicans, we are committed to our principles of limited, more accountable government; economic freedom; lower taxes; fiscal responsibility; protecting life, American values, and the Constitution; and providing for strong national security. This is an open forum, however, where all Americans are welcome to respectfully offer their opinions, regardless of party affiliation and whether we endorse them or not. It is our hope the active engagement of the American people will produce a robust debate that will aid in the construction of a new American agenda.
Naturally, this being the innerwebs, and the whole damn thing being unmoderated, it's been usurped by some users that are less than genuine. Especially fun is the "Open Mic" section, with suggestions such as:
Wait for a sign from Gozer the Traveller; he will come in one of the pre-chosen forms. During the rectification of the Vuldronaii, the Traveller came as a large and moving Torb. Then, during the third reconciliation of the last of the Meketrex Supplicants, they chose a new form for him -- that of a Giant Sloar! Many Shubs and Zuuls knew what it was to be roasted in the depths of the Sloar that day I can tell you.
"We need to force Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse to rewrite the LOST series finale. What is the island? What is the smoke monster made out of? What is the nature of Jacob and Ilana's relationship? Why does Walt have powers? Our country deserves better. "
"The tea party should merge with lemonparty. They share common interests "
and
We ought to do something about all these liberals and socialists and progressives who call Republicans racists and other bad names when you disagree with them. I went to a basketball game the other day, and a lot of people there called me a racist just because I was rooting for the visiting team. What's the problem with wanting the Washington Generals to win. The Harlem Globetrotters are being propped up by their pals in the mainstream media.
Hours of laughs.

High Violet
I Feel That Purchasing digital music is leaving me cold and wanting, so I got the new National album on 180g vinyl. Having the addition of digital versions with purchase makes it worth the extra few bucks for me.
Their albums have always been growers for me, so I'm going to give this one a few passes and see if it gets the hooks in. I also came across their last two albums after an exhaustive search of my scattered CD collection, so I will try and get those up for reference.

Shit
I could be ironic about my admiration for Ronnie James Dio, but I'd be full of shit. He was a great singer and was 100% committed to heavy metal. A huge influence on my early days of rock and roll.

Bully for Virtual Bookclubs!
I'm forming a virtual bookclub with my friend Mike, and we've decided our first read will be this biography of Teddy Roosevelt by H.W. Brands. If any of you Bastards are interested, let me know and we'll set up a way to interact, pontificate, dissect, and discourse. Bully!

When is Ian's Birthday?
Nerf Develops New Line of Biological Weapons
The Nerf bioweapons reportedly offer a variety of "completely safe" physical symptoms ranging from coughing, to temporary respiratory paralysis, to breaking out in colored polka-dot hives, to harmlessly rolling on the ground doing what company officials have termed the "crazy seizure dance."
"It was so cool," 11-year-old test user Alex Richanbach said. "First I started shaking a little, and then I got really, really hot. After that, everything went dark and dizzy, and when I woke up in the backyard, I puked up a bunch of foam balls."

Don't Say I Never Stooped Lowe
First Time Post in a series of Nick Lowe offerings. Is there a better songwriter in the history of rock and pop? I've offered a variety of albums from Nick's storied career. I think you'll find all of it awesome.
The Big To-Do
Another Furiously Tight Platter from my beloved Drive-by Truckers. I've only taken a cursory listen, but it doesn't seem to be much of a departure from their usual style. A nice addition to their last couple of albums has been bass player Shonna Tucker's weepy countryesque ballads, which fit in nicely with Cooley and Hood's usual boozey anthems.
Here's "This Fucking Job," which isn't necessarily the best song on the album, but it's representative, and perfectly titled.
