The Frame Problem
…Only MUCH more interesting…
My friend Ron Brown from Toronto has a new blog called The Frame Problem. I suggest checking it out. It’s what my blog was originally intended to be before it became a haven for dinosaurs and geography. Alas. (I also think he would have appreciated this link 5 months ago when my traffic was literally 5xs higher than it is now… I got busy!)
He covers a lot of really interesting stuff, most recently stories on sexually active gay men no longer being allowed to donate organs, schools voting against evolution and shroom’s involvement with religious experiences.
Not only has he got good coverage of interesting stories, but he’s also managed to spark up some interesting conversations…check out the comments here and also here - about my favorite topic in the world - Nisbet… only because he’s so closely linked with Mooney. Swoon. (For the record - I don’t think academies are lying to the american people… at least not all the time.)
Anyway - I’ll be adding him to my blog roll.
Katie:
Many thanks for the very kind words. Much appreciated.
Speaking of interesting comments, I think I just received the most interesting comment I’ve ever received. In response to the posting on sexually active gay men no longer being allowed to donate organs a commentor had this to say:
“who cares? homosexuality is the biggest con job of the 21st century. why not just and shut up? (they) r not ethnic minorites — they r the MAJORITY (disproportionately white and stingy). reminds one of another old white male dominated party from the 30s-40s … hmmmm”
It was so incredible I gave it it’s own post so that others could join me in appreciating the beautifully mental-fixedness: http://theframeproblem.wordpress.com/2008/01/10/is-homosexuality-the-biggest-con-job-of-the-21st-century/
