The Random Yak

Friday Morning Roundup, Reading List and OTP

Filed under: Random Carnivals, Random Linkfests — Random Yak @ 11:38 am on January 5, 2007

Here’s your Friday Reading List from the Yak:

1. Wizbang has a Pelosi-palooza themed caption contest running. Take your best shot. (In a related – horror – story, Don Surber explains, in five words or less, what Nancy Pelosi has to do withthe Grateful Dead.)

2. Adam has commentary on the “best of the worst” 2006 commentsat the Democratic Underground. My commentary: See Matthew 13.15(et eeq.)

3. See Jane Mom discusses “America’s Blind Trust in Nancy Pelosi” – in what is probably the read-me post of the day. (Tip of the Horns, c.a. Marks at Alabama Improper.)

4. basil is suffering Trek Withdrawal over at basil’s blog. I share his feelings, and feel his pain (well, almost – I still won’t watch Voyager).

5. The Constitutionmay bea Living Document, but the Founders are rolling in their graves after seeing what Stew Magoo did to it over at The Right Place.

6. In the interest of sharing, I’m going to start featuring one of the new blogs I’m readingin each of these roundups.Today’s choice (not a new blog, but new to me) is the LawDog Files. Liking this one a lot – and not just because it’s a “legal blog” – which technically, it isn’t, really. A couple of good samples: CSI (watch it myself from time to time, and yeah, he nailed it) and Meditations on Aftermath (which – as the LawDog himself says – should be read and heeded by anyone who regularlycarries a knife, gun or other weapon).

This is also your open trackback post, from now until I post another one, or you find something better. Shamelessly self-promoted at:
