Links are my choice, but do not necessarily reflect my opinion. I often link to articles, sites and blogs with which I disagree. I try to look at all sides, but the fact that I'm human makes it impossible for me to view anything completely objectively. | Monday, 18 Feb 2002(Sunday below) -- messed up my links, so I had to put Sun. and Mon. together.It was up just a while ago [permalink] As the Bishop said to the actress. You who are on blogspot should seriously consider moving (it's down again). Once or twice a day... that is just too much. Oh bradi oh brada... [permalink]Yes... yes... I know that's not how the song goes. It's just that I've been watching the latest 'blog wars', started by Megan's beautifully written "A Modest Proposal". Having read an essay by that title at a young age -- and loved it, I have a (probably deplorable) liking for parody, satire, irony and such. I read the article, chuckled madly... and went on. I honestly did not expect it to spread all over the blogosphere. Since I am also endowed with two abundant natural resources, I have never felt a need to object to Natalije's exploitation of hers. Since I also have a year or two on her, I suspect she'll see the downside to such things soon enough (gravity seems to get stronger the older one is). So I've been mainly amused by the periodic spikes in L. Samizdata's bandwidth. However; I must object to this constant posting of lovely women -- on the grounds that hetero women (and gay men) should have equal rights. We in the blogosphere who appreciate the male form are being left out. We are being deprived of pictures. For every bit of cheesecake posted, we who like men should get some beefcake! We demand a female Unablogger. We also believe that many more pictures of men with big guns should be immediately posted on Libertarian Samizdata. There ought to be a law against this blatant preference for female pictures! I'm being deprived. Where's the beefcake? Sunday, 17 Feb 2002Israel and India [permalink] Israel over the Indian Ocean - III. Our Kolkata Libertarian has just crafted a fascinating essay on Jews and India: past, present and future. It comes complete with maps that have circles and arrows and notations and it looks like it belongs in a glossy magazine. If I were editor of a history or political magazine, I'd buy that piece on the spot. Highly recommended if you have any interest at all in the subject. Even if you don't -- go admire a damned fine piece of work. Iraq Sanctions [permalink] Matt Welch has done a well written, well balanced piece on Iraq sanctions. He's done his damnedest to get through the hyperbole on both sides to the facts. Whether you agree with his conclusions or not, it's a must read -- and certainly food for thought. Go feed your brain. Update for blog addicts [permalink]Just a heads up. In my continuing attempt to give people no good excuse to visit the Unablogger, I've added more blogs. You gents (and a few ladies) are sooner or later going to be forced to admit that you visit the anonymous one just for the pictures. I've also added some spaces in the links -- they have no meaning, they are just to make it a bit easier to read. As usual, the new links have an asterisk next to them. In case you don't have enough to read yet, or even if you do, Will Vehrs' TV Pundit Watch is up. Short Stuff [permalink]
