I arrive in Atlanta in time to give the banquet speech at the Georgia LP convention. Nearly 200 people are present, and they sure look like winners. The Georgia party has come a long way, and now has a full-time director in Mark Moseley. My speech centers on "My First Day in Office" -- the things a Libertarian President could do all on his own, without waiting for Congressional approval. I say that on Inauguration Day I will pardon all federal non-violent drug offenders, non-violent gun-control offenders, and tax evaders; rip pages of regulations and executive orders out of the Federal Register; bring the troops home from overseas; make sure no American military personnel are under the command of international agencies; submit a constitutional budget; and order a carload of pens from Office Depot to veto all unconstitutional bills passed by Congress. And then I will break for lunch.Well, we can dream, can't we?
Sierra Times - "The latest word on J.J. is that he will not have to have surgery and will once again be leaving the hospital to come home soon." Glad to hear it. [sierra]
I just found the cartoon archive of Kevin Tuma, thanks to a pointer from the Liberal Second Amendment page at keepandbeararms.org. A gold-mine of incredible cartoons. I put a few of my favorites on my {@Kevin Tuma} page. [sierra]
While I was looking elsewhere, Patricia Neill has been busy writing more articles at LewRockwell.com:
- The Inanimate Objects At My House: with all the attention on gun violence, the other inanimate objects in Patty's house are getting jealous.
- Dear Census Bureau: no comment necessary, just read it.
- Great Spotted Suck Toad Soup: Patty includes the recipe for the soup she mentioned in her letter to the census bureau. "... 26 Tablespoons of Cayenne pepper... Serve to any nosy bureaucrat/census taker who comes over to your house... If the nosy bureaucrat/census taker refuses to eat their soup like good bureaucrats should, then add them to the soup. If you don't want to spoil your suck toad soup by doing that, just pour the soup on 'em."
- How We Got the Data for the National Household Survey on Drug Abuse: from the "Center to Produce Whatever Statistics You Want," of course.
- I Would Like To Apologize: for, well, everything.
Bryan Appleyard at The Times - Circumcision hailed as way to curb Aids: Drs. Roger Short and Robert Szabo of Melbourne University are about to publish a paper which shows a significant correlation between circumcision and resistance to AIDS infection. "Curiouser and curiouser," said Alice. [wnd]
