Acidman of Gut Rumbles

Sadly, I never got to meet him.

By way of eulogy, all I can say is that - as far as his blog is concerned - he kept the touchy-feely bullshit to a minimum.

Gritty, but honest.

Rare and gifted.

He will be missed.

Bloggreatgranddaughter Tink of Tink's Tribulations posted a story about a stray cat she adopted. A female feline named... Beauregard...

[Note to self: do NOT let children name pets]

She wonders whatever happened to her.

Well, I'm happy to report that the last I saw her, Beauregard was working as cook in a truck stop just off I-90, west of Spokane. Her specialty was "Blue Jay Burgers", which - surprisingly - did NOT taste like chicken.

If you've seen Beauregard recently, leave the tale of your sighting in the comments.

(A Filthy Lie cross-posted from IMAO)

In a recent Instapundit post, Glenn Reynolds mused thusly:

THE GLENN AND HELEN SHOW has been downloaded over 10 million times now. If we got just a dollar per download....

Which made me wonder... why would Glenn need $10 million?

I think the answer is fairly obvious... (see extended entry) more...

Per Wikipedia:

Moonbat is a political epithet popularized in 2002 by Perry de Havilland of Samizdata, a libertarian weblog. Contrary to some speculation, de Havilland has stated it was not originally a play on the last name of George Monbiot, a columnist for The Guardian, regardless of the fact he and Mr. Monbiot have appeared on the BBC together expressing politically opposed views. The term was originally rendered as 'Barking Moonbat', suggesting that certain issues seem to trigger a reflexive response from some people much like wolves howl at the moon (i.e. the term evokes the traditional association between the moon and insanity).

However, I was recently reading the Robert Heinlein short story collection "The Green Hills of Earth", and noticed that the story "Space Jockey" (published in 1947) featured a rocket ship on the Earth-Moon run called the "Moonbat".

So the word has apparently been around for a long time, although the meaning has obviously changed.
