None of the Above

by Marble

Forcrying out loud we have debate about solid scientific models in this country, how can those percieving bias on the other side be considered in any way legitimate? I agree with Machiavelli, perception is reality. But that is only in politics because politics is artifice. It aims at misrepresenting the world. If you take that as the basis of your reality, then of course there is no objective perspective. What then is the point of communication? Solely bending others to your will?

Someone castrated a mayor in Texas: Well, the mayor in question is a goat. A beer-drinking goat, at that, and the third that has been the mayor in Lajitas, Texas.

This is from the New York Times, and I'm not making it up.

Clay Henry III officially became mayor in 2000, winning an election against a field that included a wooden Indian and a dog named Clyde.

Er, yeah. Sounds like a town after my own heart.

Anyway, the goat's okay, which is good. I have a soft spot for goats. :)
