Checking in on old saved bookmarks
and I find that there's a few still alive and kicking |
H Kent Craig | Stumbled across this guy's site years ago when I was still using the old Prodigy dial up service | He used to have an extensive HVAC info collection and wrote in a sometimes hilarious recount | I find that he still does | Now with a blog, scroll down and get to the personal pages if ~for no other reason~ to find out where good BBQ can be found in North Carolina |
Richard Rongstad | Providing his readers with an extensive list of military related links, and one of the most diligently saved collection of letters to the editor I can think of | he says of himself: "A man once told me; "You're dangerous". He tried not to sound too whiny, and he failed to conceal his dread with his snide attitude. What he was really trying to do was tag me as a loose cannon. I was happy. That meant I got to him. I knew then I had him back on his heels. They always squeal when you make 'em nervous, or you've got 'em in a vise. ...I didn't answer him. I guess what I could have said was; "Thanks. If you're not dangerous, you're not a threat to your enemies and no good to your friends." Or, I could have said, "Aw, shucks.""
Richard Gosden's essay Shrinking the Freedom of Thought | The subject discussed is "How Involuntary Psychiatric Treatment Violates Basic Human Rights" particularly timely with the Sally Satel/Fuller Torrey push to get all Americans "assessed" for mental illness | Goes beyond the USA in implication | Saved by a Nowegian guy named Lundz, who has kept the piece online even after other sites went by the wayside | [ NOTE: So as not to lose this important essay, here's a new mirror site for the work ]
Project for the Old American Century | a non-profit grass-roots organization that strives to protect and strengthen our democracy through disseminating truthful and unbiased independent news stories untainted by corporate ownership | Develoepd as a counterweight to the Poderhitz / Wolfowitz / Rumsfeldian conspiracy to subvert human rights initatives, egalitarian values and a free nation |
Joel Pelletier's painting American Fundamentalists | Based on James Ensor's painting [1888] Christ's Entry into Brussels, 1889, his work is sure to stir the emotions, one way or another |
