    I kind of liked William F. Buckley. Sure I didn't agree with everything he said and did, but he was a true blue conservative and he stuck to his guns. Plus the conservative side of me sort of takes joy in the fact that he created the intellectual liberal bashing movement.

    I wonder why people feel obliged to boycott movies featuring certain actors they dislike.

    All of you should watch Hacking Democracy. It scared the hell out of me. It deals with voting machines, and their ability to be rigged.

    The most highly ranked prostitutes cost $5,500 an hour, prosecutors said.
    That's a lot of coin for one girl, especially when you can spend it on 10 of Eastern Europe's finest after a visit to Flashdancers, and enough blow to go around.
