http://thefinewaxdispatch.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
Randy writes what Randy sees. Friday, 13 March 2009. In the Western world like to imagine that we live in a very free and open society.

Bombs In The Basement: "War Under the Pine-Straw"
http://bombsinthebasement.blogspot.com/2008/02/at-last-war-under-pine-straw-on-dvd.html
Bombs In The Basement. This site is dedicated to Tom Dickey, the legendary Civil War relic hunter. Thursday, February 21, 2008. War Under the Pine-Straw". Do not try this at home. This movie is about Tom Dickey, who died a natural death in 1987. But not all relic collectors are so lucky. Sam White, who had defused hundreds of shells, was killed at his house in Chesterfield County, Virginia, in February of 2008. The ATF and other Federal agencies subsequently removed his entire collection. For I can tell.

High and Low on Politics and Culture (currently obsessed with Obama). Laquo; We Hard Working, White, Statistical Falsehoods (Obama’s Demographic Problem: The Elderly, not Whites). When “Experience” is Conformity, and “Toughness” Insecurity. The Viability of Obama, Part II — The Meaning of Toughness. May 10, 2008 by Wes. A year ago I wrote a post called The Viability of Obama.
