NewMexiKen is trying — really — to find something worth linking to or writing about, but inspiration is lacking.
If you’ve seen Million Dollar Baby, there’s an article in today’s New York Times about the controvesy emerging over it. (DON’T go there is you haven’t seen the movie. Major plot revelation!).
Today in History (from the Library of Congress) has some stuff about John C. Frémont — he was “court-martialed on grounds of mutiny and disobeying orders” on this date in 1848. Frémont was ahead of his times — all style and public relations and very little true ability.
Charles Pierce, writing at Altercation, tries to put some perspective on the Iraqi election yesterday, but it’s too soon to see what it all meant, and NewMexiKen would just as soon celebrate the accomplishment until we know more.
Josh Marshall continues on Social Security, doing good work I suppose, but is there really only one issue meriting analysis these days?
The Albuquerque Tribune has an nice article on Nuestra Señora de Purísima Concepción de Cuarac, the Quarai mission church.
And Sideline Chatter has some trash talk about Spiro Agnew’s golf game. Always glad to see negative stuff on Agnew, without a doubt the most venal man ever in America’s two top offices.
NewMexiKen isn’t kidding. There’s nothing going on out there that isn’t already covered 500 ways by everyone with a keyboard. We both ended up with the same monkeybutt story.
