Mixed Blessing. Most bloggers see a link from God Glenn Reynolds as A Good Thing, and strive ceaselessly to get one. In my case, when I do get the occasional Instalanche, the results are definitely mixed. In some cases, I get an "Attaboy!" from a like-minded conservative type, which I treasure, of course:
You are not only welcome here, we just may need a good shot!
But Reynolds is also read by the Pond Scum Of... [Kim du Toit]
Right on Kim! Very well said. I would never have to worry about an Instalanche because I can't write anything that anyone would want to read. I'm so glad there are some like Kim who do write well because the libs can't stand it. Anyone who visits Kim's page be sure and read "Who the Hell is this Guy" on the left. (LP)

Words To The Wise. Here's an interesting quote from one of the Founding Fathers:
"We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. Avarice, ambition, revenge, or gallantry, would break the strongest cords of our Constitution as a whale goes through a net. Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other." -- President John... [Kim du Toit]

MAX BOOT REPORTS FROM IRAQ: Every U.S. officer I talked to said that the 150,000 soldiers we have in Iraq now are sufficient. What's required is not more troops, they said, but better policing methods. Both the 101st Airborne and the Marines are disdainful of some of the heavy-handed tactics,... [Instapundit.com]
I'm having a really hard time beliving that this is from the LA Times! I went and drank a pot of coffee, took a shower, mowed the lawn, read everything on the web, came back and the URL still says latimes.com. Maybe the editor in charge of making sure that nothing favorible to the war in Iraq ever gets in the paper is off on weekends. (LP)

IRS vs. KUGLIN
Forget the war in Iraq, Afghanistan and our excellent adventure in Liberia. Forget about Kobe, Arnold, Arriana, Scott and Laci. The biggest news of the entire week is that on August 8, 2003, the IRS was unable to convince a jury in Memphis, Tennessee that the Federal Tax Code requires the citizens to pay individual income taxes. I kid you not.
Don't know if this article is true or not. I find em, I post em! (LP)

Wall Mart job application
WAL-MART Job Application... This is an actual job application that a 75 year
old senior submitted to Wal-Mart in Arkansas . and they hired him because
he was so honest and funny!
NAME: George Martin
SEX: Not yet. Still waiting for the right person (or one who'll cooperate).
DESIRED POSITION: Company's President or Vice President. But seriously,
whatever's available. If I was in a position to be picky, I wouldn't be
applying here in the first place.
DESIRED SALARY: $185,000 a year plus stock options and a Michael Ovitz
style severance package. If that's not possible, make an offer and we can
haggle.

LAST POSITION HELD: Target for middle management hostility.
SALARY: A lot less than I'm worth.
MOST NOTABLE ACHIEVEMENT: My incredible collection of stolen pens and
post-it notes.
REASON FOR LEAVING: It sucked.
HOURS AVAILABLE TO WORK: Any.
PREFERRED HOURS: 1:30-3:30 p. m. Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday.
DO YOU HAVE ANY SPECIAL SKILLS? Yes, but they're better suited to a more
intimate environment.
MAY WE CONTACT YOUR CURRENT EMPLOYER? If I had one, would I be here?
DO YOU HAVE ANY PHYSICAL CONDITIONS THAT WOULD PROHIBIT YOU FROM LIFTING UP
TO 50 Lbs.?: Of what?
DO YOU HAVE A CAR?: I think the more appropriate question here would be "Do
you have a car that runs?"
HAVE YOU RECEIVED ANY SPECIAL AWARDS OR RECOGNITION?: I may already be a
winner of the Publishers Clearing house Sweepstakes.
DO YOU SMOKE?: On the job no, on my breaks no.
WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE TO BE DOING IN FIVE YEARS?: Living in the Bahamas with
a fabulously wealthy dumb sexy blonde supermodel who thinks I'm the greatest
thing since sliced bread. Actually, I'd like to be doing that now.
DO YOU CERTIFY THAT THE ABOVE IS TRUE AND COMPLETE TO THE BEST OF YOUR
KNOWLEDGE Yes. Absolutely.
SIGN HERE: Sagittarius
Thanks to Captain (Supersonic) Sid
