Fun with Numbers

So, yes, I admit it, I read the comment sections of political videos on youtube and digg, just to drive myself crazy.

Here is a great one.

Well yea, youtube is not a McCain stronghold, I agree.

You have to be kidding me!

Read this and tell me you do not despise everybody over the age of forty.

This Book Makes Atheists

This looks like the best book ever. I haven't read it, or even seen it in person, but really...who needs to? It's only the most self-explanatory title ever.

Turning the volume up...(Or, thus endeth the Republic)

The Oversight and Government Reform Committee, which focused on Iraq contracting fraud last year, has moved on to steroids in baseball as its high-profile cause.-War rages, but Congress moves on-The Politico

I Need A Steroid Mute Button

I love baseball. In fact, I love it so much that I follow it closely even in the off-season. And I'm sick to death of hearing about Roger Clemens, George Mitchell and Bud Selig. I know what performance enhancing drugs say about the sport, and I know that players who have gained from them should somehow be punished. Baseball should establish a commission to determine guilt and innocence and allow players to confront their accusers and see the evidence against them. But until someone is willing to do this, I just don't care.

Clemens and his fellow Mitchell Report victims have been accused of something, yet there is no recourse to address their accusers save through law suits and the court of public opinion. There is no process to redress grievances, there is no physical evidence to challenge and there is no recourse. These guys have had their names dragged through the mud. They are "tainted" without ever having their day in court. They are guilty until (if ever) they can prove themselves innocent.

This side show is disgusting and serves no ones interest. So fuck it. I want ESPN to install a button on their website that allows me to look at the MLB page with the steroid coverage turned off.
