In Closing: Reading about the people justifying torture can seem like they are torturing the truth; a few police brutality and racism items; common sense may not be common; TPP; she can’t be trusted to make a decision regarding having a baby, but she can somehow be trusted with a baby. Oh, and one last must read commentary.

Music Monday: Ode to the North
Here’s Michael Bublé, proving that he’s from Canada, eh?
Music Bonus: Baste that Bird!
Music Monday: Thanks, Johnny
Ladies and Gentlemen, Johnny Cash:
In Closing: moving; a few diet items; I’m not sure how this works (except Obama is black and therefore any race issues are his fault?); as long as we’re on the topic of the President, a couple immigration items; life chances; it’s good to be king CEO; not so good to be an average worker; even worse to be in prison; but hey at least if you’re in prison you’re alive.
Music Monday: Oooh Shiny
In Closing: a few words on the disconnect between the economy as you know it and the economy as some others know it; banned in Vegas; a few words on the elections and what it means going forward (thanks, Doctor); walk in, walk out; she’s not pink, but she’s still blonde; showing up is important; regrettably true.
Music Monday: Dream
Music Monday: October 31
Sure, that’s Halloween. It’s also the anniversary of the founding of the Great State of Nevada. And there’s an interesting story concerning that. It involves lost documents, the most expensive telegraph ever sent, and Republicans trying to steal elections garner additional electoral votes.
So in honor of Nevada’s 150th birthday, please enjoy some Nevada items.
In Closing: how dare victims call sexual assault what it is; sugar; Russians turn back time (in a way); some nice juicy NSA items; wages; Israel; War on Drugs; some random global climate change (formerly global warming) items; maybe they’re not overpriced after all; diversity; smile, you’re on cop camera; fixing COLA would require admitting that inflation is higher than most people know; and American cat cafe.
Music Monday: Manic
I was going to write something about Ebola, but the stupid out there is so strong it burns. Look I know that I’ve had a total of one course in Microbiology, but clearly I know more about the subject than 90% of Congress. Seriously, I hope I that Ron Paul, Joe Heck, and Howard Dean know more than me since they’re doctors.
In Closing: selective breeding; change; a couple diet items; a big turn-off; African Samurai; TPP sucks; fail; backdoor; a higher minimum wage is good for a small government.
Music Monday: Happy Columbus Day
It’s just not a patriotic holiday without Stan Freberg. A couple years ago I posted a version of his thoughts on Columbus.
Perhaps you prefer this take on the events:
Music Monday: Athletics and the Economy
Why yes, that is Andy Samberg as “Steve.”
Ok, I get it. Professional sports are highly profitable. Millions of dollars, and that’s just players’ salaries.
