What would good displays look like?

Benghazi
…the motion picture?
Don’t hold your breath.
The Crippled Cruise Ship
I’ve been thinking of writing a piece about how the passengers were transported back in time to when immigrants came over in steerage (or worse, were slaves chained in the hold, lying in their own filth for weeks), and still may, but Lileks has some biting criticism of the media coverage so far.
Women
How some of them ruin everything for women.
Obviously, an unwelcome stolen kiss is rude. But “rapey”? Really?
Just another example of how the seventies feminists went more than a bridge too far.
And no, I’m not going to do my standard spiel about how Valentine’s Day is part of the war on men, but Jim Geraghty has some good thoughts.
But I will repeat that I always laugh when I hear about women wanting to know what men want on Valentine’s Day. Just show up. We’re not that hard to please. Especially for those of us who don’t have women.
And it’s not that long until Steak and a BJ Day (though I have to confess that when it comes to oral s3x, I think it’s far better to give than to receive, and I have no interest in watching fel**tio in pr0n).
Everything You Know About The Twenties
…is wrong. A meditation by Lileks.
Boba Fett
Sorry, Gen-Xers, but not everything, or everyone, has a back story. And that’s particularly not the case with one of the most overrated movie franchises in history.
Han Solo you might be able to make a movie about, but Boba Fett? Really? If so, it’s just a final demonstration of cultural and moral decline.
Ed Markey
…and his idiotic war on roller coasters.
What Happened To The Clovis People?
The zombie theory.
Run, Ashley, Run
A campaign that would be a Bluegrass State Republican’s dream.
Political Children
Chris Rock thinks that Barack Obama is his dad.
