Too much Tech?

Wednesday, May 20th, 2009

How much of current society and culture would stop if we lost our current, know all/talk to all technology?  Does the instant news cycle change the political and social dynamic of our culture? An interesting article explores our youth's addiction to their gadgets.  How they make decisions based on access to ...

EIT or Not

Tuesday, May 19th, 2009

Mychael Massie contends that "EIT" (enhanced interrogation techniques) aren't "enhanced" at all but are normal.  Not just normal but that which SHOULD be used.  To pursue this argument he compares the interrogations severity to the beheadings conducted by terrorists.  This is a fallacious comparison in the context of civilized behavior ...

Spineless Parents, Culture and Society

Tuesday, May 19th, 2009

Here is an instance of the rot within our culture.  The propensity to validate and empower whimsical "wants" or "wishes" rather than to apply appropriate norms.  We won't even discuss the "civil rights" activism associated with an alleged "disorder".  An 8 year old, disordered or not, doesn't enjoy the cognitive ...

Justify These

Saturday, May 16th, 2009

Just a few things that government does "in the name of the people" that we want to see if anyone can justify. 1. Seat Belt Laws The common justification given is insurance costs and "to save lives".  In a free society each person's life is their own to spend as they wish.  ...

I’m too busy

Friday, May 15th, 2009

I'm too tired.  American Idol is on.  The kids have practice.  I have too much homework.  I'm broke. It doesn't matter what I do, no one would pay attention to me anyway.  It's all rigged.  I'd rather be shopping.  The bar is open.  The game is on.  I can't miss ...
