Blogroll Updated.
Finally.
As I've noted before, I'm coming up on the fourth anniversary of TSM, and I thought it was about time I updated my blogroll. First I went through and pulled any site that hadn't updated in the last six months, or any site I had as a reciprocal blog where a link to me no longer existed. Any site that came back as something commercial or "404 Not Found" was pruned, so if your site disappeared due to a temporary server problem, let me know.
For a medium in which so many people start out, but then peter off, I was quite surprised how many of my links are still active and healthy.
Then I went back and added some bloggers that I've admired but just not taken the time to include: LawDog, Ambulance Driver, and The Munchkin Wrangler. I then checked my Technorati links to add blogs that had put me on their blogrolls in the interim - so long as they were at least six months old and still posting.
Finally, I added a category: "Bloggers I've Met." There's a lot of redundancy in that list, but I don't care.
Believe it or not, this took about three hours. See why I've been putting it off?
This should be the only post for today. Überpost tomorrow (I hope.) Title: To be civilized is to restrain the ability to commit mayhem. It's about the war in Iraq.
The Smallest Minority on earth is the individual. Those who deny individual rights cannot claim to be defenders of minorities. - Ayn Rand
Liberty is an inherently offensive lifestyle. Living in a free society guarantees that each one of us will see our most cherished principles and beliefs questioned and in some cases mocked. That psychic discomfort is the price we pay for basic civic peace. It's worth it. It's a pragmatic principle. Defend everyone else's rights, because if you don't there is no one to defend yours. -- MaxedOutMama
I don't just want gun rights... I want individual liberty, a culture of self-reliance....I want the whole bloody thing. -- Kim du Toit
The most glaring example of the cognitive dissonance on the left is the concept that human beings are inherently good, yet at the same time cannot be trusted with any kind of weapon, unless the magic fairy dust of government authority gets sprinkled upon them.-- Moshe Ben-David
The cult of the left believes that it is engaged in a great apocalyptic battle with corporations and industrialists for the ownership of the unthinking masses. Its acolytes see themselves as the individuals who have been "liberated" to think for themselves. They make choices. You however are just a member of the unthinking masses. You are not really a person, but only respond to the agendas of your corporate overlords. If you eat too much, it's because corporations make you eat. If you kill, it's because corporations encourage you to buy guns. You are not an individual. You are a social problem. -- Sultan Knish
All politics in this country now is just dress rehearsal for civil war. -- Billy Beck
