All the muck that's fit to rake". Why is it that many a woman of the Serious Relationship ilk - those who only enter a relationship if they feel confident it will last as long and be as perilous as Odysseus' return to Ithaca - brandish their membership to the group like a Vietnam Vet talking about his six tours in Khe-San?

All the muck that's fit to rake". What the U.S. Doesn't Need: J.R. Labbe. Who is J.R. Labbe? Some woman who writes for the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. Why is she important? Because her writing is an example of the mindless drivel that pours from the pens of U.S. journalists like the radioactive sludge from Monty Burns' nuclear plant into Lake Springfield. Except bad journalism doesn't breed twelve-eyed fish. Just ignorance. Dear J.R.,. I suppose I should have expected the tough wrangler talk you displayed ...

All the muck that's fit to rake". Joe The Forklift Driver - May 1993. The Moon Under Water. 4th Avenue is a wide thruway for Brooklyn that will take you, start to finish, from Fort Hamilton, Bay Ridge, to Sunset Park, past Greenwood Cemetary, Park Slope, and Gowanus where it ends at the frantic intersection of 4th, Atlantic, and Flatbush Avenues. Up at the Gowanus portion, 4th Avenue sits between the self-congratulatory perambulator-pushers of 5th Avenue and neglected 3rd Avenue. Then vote Obama.". There...

All the muck that's fit to rake". Just a quick note on George Packer's New Yorker piece, Obama's Iraq Problem. I would hope, and expect, that this is the tact Obama takes. It was certainly the one John Kerry should have adopted and his inability to make such a simple, and critical, intellectual leap lost him the election. Barack Obama and the Theory of the Unitary Executive. In January of 2007, Chalmers Johnson wrote a citizen's " National Intelligence Estimate. It was Dwight Eisenhower who foresaw the p...

Before reading this if you're not familiar with him because I want to draw on a couple of terms and tools that he developed. 1) Enhancement (What the medium amplifies or intensifies) - Radio amplifies news and music via sound. 2) Obsolescence (What the medium drives out of prominence) - Radio reduces the importance of print and the visual. 3) Retrieval (What the medium recovers which was previously lost) - Radio returns the spoken word to the forefront.
