Bang, Bang, He Shot Him Down
Jon Stewart ties Oklahoma State Senator Nathan Dahm in knots, as he tries to explain and defend his illogic regarding guns. I’m going to assume that Dahm is aspiring to national political office.
The Second Amendment to the United States Constitution:
- As originally written — A well regulated Militia being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.
- As currently interpreted by the Supreme Court — The right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.
The Pointy Haired Boss Fires Dilbert
Scott Adams could have quit, but instead he chose to be fired. At least there’s more publicity in that.
Adams said that white people should “get the hell away from black people.” Isn’t that the way it’s been in almost every syndicated humorous comic strip since Peanuts? Lynn Johnston and Cathy Guisewite were eagerly signed for syndication, but their points of reference were no less white and suburban than Gary Larson or Bill Watterson.
Perhaps Adams doesn’t want to be a cartoonist anymore. My take from watching some of Real Coffee With Scott Adams on YouTube is that he sees himself as another Rush Limbaugh. Adams retains Rush’s attention-getting histrionics in his polemics, while avoiding the hysterics of ex-DJ Limbaugh.
Moon Trek
Music for our trip to the Moon, in glorious RCA Victor Living Stereo.
And off we go!
Controlled Burn
The MAGA crowd may prefer to imagine that books are being burned in this video, but it’s my semi-annual burning of bills that have been paid and receipts that aren’t needed. I shred some things, but this makes it more of a primal ritual, besides being easier on the ears.
March Madness
While others may be betting on college basketball this month, I’ll be donating to my favorite Internet radio stations. One of them is Debbie Daughtry’s Boss Radio 66.
Debbie says Tom Hanks will be back on Wednesday March 15, with more of his Songs from the Back of the Station Wagon.
