Games As A Teaching Opportunity

by Smitty (via Paceset999) At the Chicago Toy and Game Fair: This year we picked up the new version of the old classic, Monopoly.  It’s pretty cool how the board is now round, they have replaced all the paper money (remember the pink 500’s?) with credit cards, the properties are (terribly realistically) priced in the […]

Latma, Again: ‘Somebody To Hate’

by Smitty I am in awe of Latma’s ability to find laughs amidst what is a truly nasty situation. Bravo! And, if the reference is escaping you:

Unlike ‘Tawdry Gossip’ About Sarah Palin

. . . rumors that Levi Johnston’s sister is the kind of floozy who poses naked for Playboy magazine have been confirmed and documented: There have been rumors around Wasilla that Mercede was one of the sources for Joe McGinniss’s book.

Both inevitable and obligatory: The laughable failure of AttackWatch.com is a result of the internal logic of the Left: When you believe your politics is an expression of your own moral and intellectual superiority, it logically follows that your opposition is both evil and stupid. While the assumption of right-wing evil is perhaps still unrefuted, we have […]

How Much Does Glenn Beck Pay Brian Sack to Make Tasteless Sarah Palin Jokes?

Image from GBTV “Regardless what you think of her, this rumor stuff is getting absolutely ridiculous. I don’t believe Sarah Palin slept with Glenn Rice, and this rumor-mongering is unfair to her kids — Track, Bristol, Willow, Piper, Trig and Dunky.
