Sarkozy: The Most Dangerous Demagogue in the EU

Just two weeks ago he was saying France had "too many foreigners" and now he's asking us to trust him and give him the power to further censor the internet.

Extremism is dangerous, no doubt, and those who promote it should be brought to justice, but Mr. Sarkozy is a man who I trust about as much as I do Hugo Chavez. If Sarkozy weren't so short, insecure, and uncharismatic I would put my money on him as the dude most likely to start a third world war.

On the importance of CT scans

Imagine if I had known my whole life that I was born with ADHD-PI. I feel like I could have been a much more productive student, and a much healthier individual. 

The libertarian in me is starting to grow up. Socialized health care is essential. America's prisons are full of individuals who committed original sin by being born with arachnoid cysts in their temporal lobes. As long as there are guns in America, and this condition -- which is very easy to conceal -- goes unchecked, the United States will remain a very dangerous place.

I have an 11mm arachnoid cyst in my left temporal lobe

That 11mm arachnoid cyst has determined the course of my life, and indeed the course of civilization. Welcome to the 21st century!

I guess the number 11 is truly wonderfully balanced.
