Everybody who’s complained that Barack Obama is all fluff and no substance really needs to read this piece. I was going to link to it earlier but couldn’t find it, then somebody thoughtfully mentioned it in a post somewhere else. Short short version: the man is a skilled politician who knows very well how to […]

So I’m going to be on Team Bloggers for this year’s edition of CBC’s Test the Nation. (It is airing on the 20th at 8 p.m.) Which doesn’t particularly mean I will become famous or anything, but, you know – it’s fun to be on television! Even if it only is for a few seconds’ […]

Read his WSJ column on Barack Obama. His trash talking was an unattractive carryover from his days playing pickup basketball at Harvard… DID YOU KNOW THAT BARACK OBAMA IS A BLACK MAN? He is often lazy, given to misstatements and exaggerations and, when he doesn’t know the answer, too ready to try to bluff his […]

I mean, I haven’t gotten around to reading The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay, and looking over my heavily loaded-down bookshelf there’s a […]

Well, turnout for the whole ask me a question thing has been higher than anticipated, so I’m gonna start answering questions now. They’ll all get answered eventually, I promise. Feel free to keep asking in the original post if you missed it, or similar. CandidGamera asked: Vic Sage? I’m sorry, but your question does not […]

So “One More Day” has come to its entirely predictable and deeply stupid end. The internets are aglow with the sound of fanboy heads exploding in rage. We’ve seen J. Michael Straczynski and Joe Quesada have a very public “civil disagreement,” where each is more or less trying to find the most eloquent euphemism for […]
