From Fox News about a confrontation in the House of Reps a few days ago;
‘While no cameras recorded the event, a stenographer took down every word Stark uttered. Republican Rep. Kenny Hulshof recited them back on the House floor.
“‘You little fruitcake, you little fruitcake, I said you are a fruitcake,’” Hulshof, R-Mo., read from the [...]

Kill the French.
July 18th, 2003 No Comments
I love their country. It’s too bad it’s filled with the French.
The French suck. I saw an article somewhere today that the French government wants to ban the word “email” and replace it with some gay French phrase. The motive? The word “email” is not French. They feel their culture is being threatened. WHAT??? Why [...]

Date Rape
July 18th, 2003 No Comments
Kobe was charged with 3rd degree sexual assualt. Basically, that’s rape, my friends.
If articulation is an indication of sexual function; Kobe is innocent. His press conference was horribly unpolished, and unrehearsed. He repeated the phrase “I’m innocent” at least 10 times. He also admitted that he had an extramarital affair. A week ago, he denied [...]

David Kelly
July 18th, 2003 No Comments
Any speculations out there regarding David Kelly’s death? I have a suspicion that it is a suicide. I think the British government would be a lot more careful ‘rubbing someone out” than leaving their body in the middle of the woods.

Our new arrival!
July 12th, 2003 No Comments
We are proud to welcome a new arrival in the Dorrk household: she’s a beautiful, 9-lb. miracle. I am transfixed by her and my ceaseless attention to her does cause Amy some consternation.
Of course, I’m not referring to our baby, who isn’t due until November. I’m talking about our 1-week-old Sony Vaio notebook computer, which [...]

Debate
July 12th, 2003 No Comments
Yeah, I agree Greg. It was totally disappointing. I blame Costas for 1) choosing such an idiotic guest to represent rap AND 2) For not moderating the debate at all and letting the other guy talk over McWhorter the entire time. What was the point of even letting McWhorter come on the [...]

Treason and Reason
July 12th, 2003 No Comments
I read the entire second chapter of Ann Coulter’s new book Treason tonight at Barnes & Noble. I’m a sympathetic reader, although I think part of her premise is flawed.
I skipped the first chapter because I figured that’s probably where Coulter’s talk-show material has come from (at least, that what she did with her previous [...]

Bad Rap
July 12th, 2003 No Comments
I watched John McWhorter debate a thick and inarticulate rap mogul on Bob Costas’ HBO show, as Pat recommended. Terrible debate. McWhorter was so articulate he took it upon himself to incorrectly rephrase all of the rap mogul’s unintelligilbe arguments. It wasn’t pretty, and I think both sides were wrong, to a degree.
McWhorter, like most [...]

Pamela Anderson has herpes, doesn’t she? I think that in itself is a turn off.

Nation Building
July 11th, 2003 No Comments
In response to Pat’s blog regarding nation building. Nation building is our government justifying war. It was easy to rollover Iraq and Afghanistan looking for one guy. These are truly extreme measures when you boil it down. You destroy a lot of innocent people’s lives who are etching out a meager existence in third world [...]

Amazing Stupid Life
July 11th, 2003 No Comments
You know sometimes life is simply amazing. I am also amazing stupid.
Some of you may recall Sarah Rosenberg. She played the leading role in “dentity Crisis” that starred Greg and Mike and I directed. Sarah and I would cross paths again about two years later. She was cast in a supporting role and I was [...]

Kobe
July 11th, 2003 No Comments
Kobe has not been formally charged with anything. The officials in Colorado are kicking around the idea of charging him with sexual assault on a 19 year old girl. The details have been slowly leaking out.
In other Lakers news, that some of you may find interesting: Both Karl Malone and Gary “the Glove” Payton have [...]

Watch HBO tonight
July 11th, 2003 No Comments
Hey guys, especially Greg…..on Bob Costas’ great show on HBO tonight, John McWhorter is joining a panel to discuss hip hop music. It should be really interesting. I believe it is at 11:30PM (eastern time, probably western time also). Anyway….I hope I got my info correct.

Nation Building
July 10th, 2003 No Comments
The one part of the Iraq/Afghanistan campaigns that I have been uncomfortable with has been the issue of re-building. It is not that I feel that the US is obligated to rebuild these nations. Quite the opposite. I wish we would just destroy our enemies (disarm) and move on—offering assistance only when [...]

Is Pamela Anderson Beautiful?
July 10th, 2003 No Comments
I have a question for all the guys out there. Do you think Pamela Anderson is beautiful? Hot? A total babe?
I have a theory that most men aren’t really attracted to PA because she is so incredibly fake looking. That most men may like those kind of measurements, but Pamela herself [...]

Does anybody know exactly what the charges are against Kobe Bryant? I hate that guy.

Back at Yale

I’m back in New Haven, CT visiting the campus, friends, and good old St. Andrew’s. Man, it has been great being back in this part of the USA. I miss it SO MUCH! It’s the only place that even remotely makes me think it might be better than Hong Kong (but then [...]

Conservative Criticizes Coulter
July 8th, 2003 No Comments
David Horowitz, a former-Marxist-turned-conservative, who has written powerfully about his change of mind (and has also stirred up controversy with his campaign against reparations for slavery and his description of AIDS as a “liberal holocaust”) scolds Ann Coulter’s new book Treason.
Unlike the unconvincing and unfocused Joe Conason attack he cites in his article, I suspect [...]

Good for Dean. I wondered what he was doing.
A Christian at the NYT? Now that would be diverse.

Beckham’s a Nancy Boy
July 5th, 2003 No Comments
ESPN had a special on David Beckham last night. It was about how he’s become the world’s most famous athelete, even though he’s probably only in the “top 20….between the top 5 and the top 10″ soccer players in the world.
They bascially focused on the massive PR machine that is behind Beckham and suggested [...]
