The Lonely Goatherd Blog And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats - Matthew 25:32
Up to the minute notes on the current state of free thinking and free living: Kentucky moonshine - original analysis and reporting from MoreThings, and all round pop culture museum of sight and sound - photo galleries, mp3 and video downloads.
Al Barger and MoreThings - getting people's goats since 1998.
Hostile bearers of unproven and mostly unlikely evil conspiracies tend to come across to me as hateful seekers after cheap self-aggrandizement for the sake of their supposed arcane knowledge rather than actual seekers after truth or the better benefit of the country. Conspiracy mongering doesn't get me hard.
Links
To explicitly state the obvious, these external links go to interesting and provocative websites, but they speak for themselves. I don't necessarily agree with anything they say - especially that no-goodnik Richard Marcus.

Santa Claus is Big Brother Leonard Peikoff offers a delightfully subversive interpretation of Christmas as a healthy display of American capitalism celebrating our prosperity. Interestingly, he casts Santa as an agent of justice, as he rewards only the good children.
I take a much dimmer view of the deal. Santa sounds like just another nosey commie to me. "He knows when you are sleeping. He knows when you're awake. He knows if you've been bad or good." Hey, you don't need to be spying on me, and being all up in my business. You can stick them goddam toys up your ass. Just a typical nose-under-the-tent liberal giveaway to get you to agree to having this bastard all up in your business. He don't need to know when I'm sleeping or awake, or whoring or studying the Bible. Mind your own fricking business, and I'll buy my own damned toys.
But that's me. Sometimes I just don't work and play well with others. I suppose this'll get me a lump of coal in my stocking- or a visit from his Thought Police.
