One quibble. If you really bought that many one-watt green lasers, I’m sure that you’d get the price well below $300.

I’m sure glad that the president is taking time out from fixing the economy and the Middle East in meltdown to deal with the critical issue of football officiating. But I guess it’s a big issue for the swing state of Wisconsin.

More from Katrina Trinko.
Live tweets from Hollywood.
I sent out a tweet to correct the one that said it was F-16s escorting. I’m pretty sure it was a couple of Dryden’s F-18s (at least that’s what it looked like when it flew over the house).
…over a Disney film.
How the mighty have fallen. They’re barely beating Eastern Michigan, 9-7 in the fourth quarter, and haven’t gotten into the end zone. Hope Michigan does better against the Domers than Michigan State did last week.
[Update at the end of both games]
Well, Sparty pulled it out, and Michigan lost, but at least the defense looked good. It’s hard to win a game when you throw three straight interceptions.
It be that time of year again, to talk like a pirate. The beauty Debbie Witt has some links.
“I demand that you arrest me.”
My film is likely to be inspired by a fascinating lecture I heard by the very Rushdie during which the novelist, who read Islamic history at Cambridge, explained the origins of that faith. He said it began with Mohammed’s ruthless and violent battle with the mother cults that then controlled Medina over local trade routes. It was about money then, but, as I will show in my movie, that war evolved into a kind of perpetual “War on Women” that has been waged by Islam since.
Interesting, huh? Good cinema. Action, adventure, sex (matriarchy vs. ultra-patriarchy), even a little meaty conversation like Lawrence of Arabia.
Don’t let me do it. There’s only one “War on Women” and you know it — the one your fellow Democrats ascribe to Mitt Romney and company. I wouldn’t want to undermine that.
So stop me, Hillary, before I write. The Bill of Rights is a fusty old document anyway, obviously subject to revision by an UN-approved committee of trans-global multi-culturalists.
Censor me all you want. I’m ready. I don’t want to cause any international incidents. I have enough sleepless nights as is.
But you will excuse me if, in the process, I think of you as the deepest of reactionaries. I knew you were a big time liar when you blamed the “right-wing conspiracy” for your husband’s obvious serial adultery. That was nothing compared to this, however. By blaming filmmakers, even the most amateurish ones, for the murderous actions of fanatical Islamists, you have placed yourself in complete opposition to everything our country ever stood for and to the essence of the U.S. Constitution.
They have no idea how they’re simply encouraging the enemy.
…and now Clint Eastwood.
Go see the movie for him. Make if one of his biggest hits ever.
Five ways it saps our character.
Fortunately, it’s a problem that the Democrats seem determined to solve, albeit unwittingly.
That’s a shame — he was only 82, which isn’t that old these days. No word of the cause of death. I’d heard that he’d been doing well since his recent heart surgery, so either there were later complications, or he just happened to succumb to something else.
The irony, of course, as it notes in the bio, is that he never wanted to be an icon, and generally shunned the publicity. In any event, ad astra, and resquiescat in pace.

Well, my Facebook wall is all Neil, all the time.
