Notes from Howard's Sabbatical from Working. The name comes from a 1998 lunch conversation. Someone asked if everything man knew was on the web. I answered "no" and off the top of my head said "Fidel Castro's favorite color". About every 6-12 months I've searched for this. It doesn't show up in the first 50 Google results (this blog is finally first for that search), AskJeeves says it's: red.

When Glenn Met Sarah
I watched the first part of the Glenn Beck-Sarah Palin interview at Andrew Sullivan's blog: When Glenn Met Sarah. It's insane. These people talk in horoscopes!
It is SO hard to watch vapid, self-serving charlatans stumble through platitudes and drivel to line their pockets and mislead their sheep. If only the US really were the place they talk about for just a day, they'd be hauled off to some "black site" and never heard from again.
Beck is a moron, but I don't think he has any political aspirations, and is therefore relatively harmless. He strikes me a guy who just wants to make as much money as possible and he has found his ideal vehicle.
As far as S. Pailn is concerned, I find that divine intervention is really the only plausible explanation for the arc of her life.

The real problem is that she believes that too.
