So you think that McCain is against the use of torture? After all, he was tortured so he must be against it. He says he’s against it, so he must be against it (because politicians never ever lie).
Well, not quite:

In September, 2006, McCain made a melodramatic display — with great media fanfare — of insisting [...]

How do you think Mr. Limbaugh would respond if a bunch of Democrats started riots at the Republican National Convention in order to sow fear and chaos in the minds of the American public? Don’t you think he would find that kind of behavior to be un-American at best? In fact, I would bet money [...]

Listening to Radio Paradise after uploading the new episode of Letters to Lost Friends, and David Bowie’s “Life on Mars” is playing. Damn but this is a good song:

The chain, sadly, does not remain unbroken. But I’m averaging exercise five times a week.

But one man’s problem is a nation’s opportunity. Has any scientist
researched the practicality of replacing coal-fired power plants with
new versions fueled by a never-ending supply of dog hair? Other

PetroK-9); (2) compressed pellets for use as mail padding to reduce
styrofoam production; (3) [...]

So I’ve been remiss in writing here in part because I’m starting a new project called “Letters to Lost Friends.” This is going to be my first podcast and I’m hoping to get the first, introductory episode out by Thursday and follow that with a weekly release schedule. I promise I’ll not forsake my Liminal [...]

“Mad Hot Ballroom” (Marilyn Agrelo)
