Jonah Goldberg points out it’s International Anti-Corruption Day. Oh, the irony.

I came across the term recently, and I honestly never imagined what it actually meant. Kinda freaky.
No goal to this game, but you’ll spend at least 30 minutes playing with it.
This story makes my head hurt. Feinstein, who’s the Senator from the state Chevron is headquartered in, is defending Chevron’s ability to do business in Burma (by operating oil fields) against Senator McCain, who seeks to penalize Chevron for working with the junta there. I haven’t made my mind up on the issue yet, but I was under the impression that Democrats were all pro-Human Rights anti-Big Business exploitation, especially the liberal ones from California. And I thought McCain would be pragmatic, realizing that forcing Chevron out wouldn’t actually solve anything and just hurt an American company.
I don’t know why, but apparently my WordPress blog layout just plain breaks which it comes to YouTube videos being displayed on Firefox running under Vista. I’ll have to get around to fixing it, but it doesn’t appear to affect LiveJournal too much. Weird thing was that it worked just fine under XP – and Opera and IE don’t have a problem with it. Hrm.
UPDATE: Turns out it was a corrupt HTML embed of the Pachebel video. It is now fixed.
