Friday Links - 4 August

Bookworm Room is up first with If there is global warming, blame Pele, the volcano goddess, not humans

Put aside the fact that we don’t measure global trends by a single day and that we only started collecting local temperature information in the late 19th century. The important point is that it’s time to panic.

Lone Star Parson - Well They Won't Clean Themselves!

I stared at the guns and they stared at me. Impasse. "Well, we're not going to clean ourselves," and I had to admit the dirty beasts had a point so I set to.

The Other McCain - The Trey Lance Mistake. I usually ignore football posts, but I thought I would make an exception.

Impro Guns - Taurus Tetanus .38 $ Another example from Brazil.

Found in the waistband of a suspect who admitted to carrying out robberies in Porto Velho.

American Thinker - Does the GOP have a 'Feinstein problem,' too?

Should the GOP be a party perceived as no different from its gerontocratic counterparty beset as it is with jurassic clingers to power?

Red State - Grown-Up Children and Permanent Minors

We used to expect children to grow up. We should start expecting that again, and a part of that is picking an age – one age – for majority.

Meep at Stump - Building Bridges to STEM Careers

The most effective way to open the gate is not to remove it but to build knowledge and skills.
