My daughter is flying in town tonight and had mentioned she might want to see Red Riding Hood while visiting. I will have to find plenty of alternative options of entertainment. http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/girl_with_...ed_riding_hood/

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Mar 11, 2011 -> 12:35 PM) This is more "insane-old-manism" than anything to do with conservatism. Indeed. I just feel like ranting on conservatives today. Give me my outlet.

Compassionate conservatism at its finest.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Mar 11, 2011 -> 10:53 AM) I think Obama has had quite a large number of "czar" administrative positions, more than previous admin's. I do recall Cknoll's anger with that title prior to 2008. It's all he would talk about. Thank goodness he's consistent.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Mar 11, 2011 -> 10:50 AM) We need more Communist Russia Czars! I mean what was the point of that line? That Obama's administration, like Republican ones in the past, use the word czar? Oh my goodness!?!?!?

QUOTE (Cknolls @ Mar 11, 2011 -> 10:49 AM) If not a new agency, definitely a new Czar or Czarina. Can you pull out a more lame one liner? Probably not.

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Mar 11, 2011 -> 10:38 AM) Do you want to know the sad truth of this? If we fixed everything...I mean everything, every single complaint you could possibly have about wealth...I'm talking COMPLETE social justice here, and took all the money in the US, and divided it equally to every citizen... Within 10 short years, 95% of the people that are broke now...would be broke again... And 95% of the people that are ultra rich now...would be ultra rich again. The other 5% would be the few individuals in-between that actually make something of their opportunity. Now, you can dismiss what I'm saying all you want...but it'd happen. It's as sure as death and taxes. I just stumbled upon a picture of you online.

Who needs tsunami warnings anyway? by digby

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Mar 11, 2011 -> 07:19 AM) Tsunami arrival time map. When did it start so I can do the math and see where it will be in X hours?

Figured it's time to bring this topic back into the environment thread: via

Ugh. In the last few seconds of the video I posted above you can see several vehicles driving perpendicular to the oncoming tsunami and are going to be engulfed.

State of emergency declared at 2 nuclear power plants.

Pretty fascinating story about a city to be in South Korea in Gizmodo.

March 5th?

Epic ending to Ebert's review of Battle: Los Angeles:
