I saw some links in my referrer log going to my rant on the Second Amendment and gun control from the “Nation of Riflemen Forum” entitled “One more has seen the Light” where they quote my entire entry. I don’t know what to think about that. One of the comments does refer to me as a “Liberal” and I do kind of take exception to that. I’m more of a left-leaning libertarian who doesn’t subscribe to the dogma from either end of the political spectrum.
There’s a list of Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince spoilers here. Now I’ve got to read the book. I didn’t think J. K. Rowling had it in her.
The new pope has come out against evolution, continuing the Catholic Church’s opposition to science that began with their attack on Galileo and a sun-centered solar system through stem cell research. I wonder if they’re going to dispute the spherical earth theory next.
The Pope has also come out against Harry Potter (admittedly while he was still Cardinal Ratzinger). Another reason to read it, I guess. I just hope that Jim and I can get that kind of condemnation when we finally get Duck Blood Soup published. You just can’t buy that kind of publicity.
Hockey’s probably going to be back and I’ll miss the first opening night in years. It’s that whole job thing and cutting unnecessary expenses. Oh well.
I went to Yakko Japanese restaurant for lunch today. What a disappointment. They used to be one of the best Japanese places in the bay area and now they’re well below average. They must have changed owners or something because my katsu donbori today was not nearly as good as it used to be.
Stumble it!
