PS: Just returning the courtesy.
In a truly awesome post dissecting our Puppet Prime Minister’s daughter’s dubious attempt to categorize historians, JK covers a spacious spectrum. His dissection is a series of consecutive slaps to the lady, who is ever so politically correct despite having her flashes of intelligence. But the best thing about his post is the amount of [...]
Amardeep Singh, the kind professor who refused to engage me in debate writes about his strong support to forming SAALT [link thanks: Gaurav]
The group has published a position paper endorsed by dozens of local South Asian American groups, which attempts to assemble a South Asian political agenda that might find broad support amongst various constituencies [...]
Update: A friend I was chatting with just told me that another bomb, placed inside a bucket opposite the Forum mall was defused in a timely manner by the cops. It seems somebody saw a guy wearing a red T-Shirt put a bucket down and walk away. This person immediately called the cops. The friend [...]

More Mountain Weed Turd
Turdesai is not content with smoking Mountain Weed alone. He feeds it to his staff as well by making them write an “explanation” for why his channel didn’t telecast the damaging tapes. From trying to assuage his non-existent conscience to enforcing his guilt upon his staff, Turdesai sinks to newer and newer lows. Owe it [...]
