I did it; it’s working. So, I’m taking an actual lunch break at work (mmm… Taco Bell and Mountain Dew LiveWire). Yesterday, a commenter suggested I do a new Michael Moore letter, so here it is:

Dear Michael Moore,
You’re fat and ugly. Please do something about that.
Cordially,
Frank J.
P.S. Shave.

BTW, I think Moore should take the advice from the last guy on this page.
I have a new advertiser – the blog Free Will. After you’re done here, go check him out. He has the nearly not work safe picture of John Kerry’s daughter from Cannes. Nice eye-candy, but that won’t help him with the image of being a regular family guy.
Also, Right Wing Stuff is back for another month as an advertiser. Go check out their large selection of t-shirts and other merchandise.
I’ve gotten some good feedback from advertiser’s on my click-thru rates. Please check out each of my advertisers at least once to keep that up.
There’s two great articles on National Review Online today. One is from Michael Rubin about the rise of anti-semitism as of late in the West, and the other is from Derbyshire about our real enemy.
I’m aiming for Friday for the continuation of Monday’s IMW. As for tomorrow… who knows? Any requests?
Later, ronin.
UPDATE: BlogAds is having a survey about blog readers. Make sure to tell them IMAO sent you.
UPDATE II: Here’s a Ted Rall meets Chomps cartoon. Maybe I should get mad about someone using my character without permission… but it’s funny.

Thanks for the music advice so far. What I’m really looking for are what are some good albums to buy (ones that don’t have one or two worthwhile songs). BTW, what I have now is the Atomship album advertised on my site and I picked up from Best Buy yesterday Nirvana’s Nevermind, P.O.D.’s Sattellite, Shinedown’s Leave a Whisper (the newer albums are cheaper, and I can resist a song named “.45”), and the Matrix Reloaded Soundtrack (it’s two disc, the first being songs from Marilyn Manson, P.O.D., Rage Against the Machine, etc. and the second the orchestrated soundtrack to the movie). Soundtracks to movies seem to be a good way to get a mix of music; any reccomendations there? Orchestrated soundtracks to me are good for when I’m reading and writing, but I want rock for work.
What I’m already planning on getting is some stuff from Offspring, the Beatles, The Doors, Mettalica (what’s their best album?), and Johnny Cash (I grew up listening to my dad play that).
Again, any specific album suggestions would be really appreciated. You readers rock!

Been a little out of the loop lately on politics lately. Hopefully I should fix that soon, but, until then, why don’t I comment on something social instead of political.
I’d like to talk about reaction time. When there is a sudden occurrence, you don’t react immediately; instead there is a delay between when something happens and your brain realizes it and reacts. That’s reaction time.
Now, here’s a hypothetical: you’re going eighty miles per hour as is the car in front of you, but your only three feet behind that car. If the driver of the car in front of you has to hit his breaks, will you be able to react in time?
No… SO GET OFF MY ASS!
Some people do not understand this concept… and probably won’t even after the front of their car has been compacted like an accordion. These people are morons. Apparently, morons are in big hurries. Why, I don’t know; what kind of place could be in dire and immediate need of morons?
Hey, I’m all for going into the right lane and letting the guy behind me pass since fifteen miles over apparently isn’t enough for him, but sometime that isn’t possible or wouldn’t achieve anything.
Here’s some info that must be quite new to some people: just because I’m a decent distance behind the person in front of me doesn’t mean I’m going any slower. Actually, I’m matching the speed of that car, but, recognizing I have a “reaction time”, I keep a proper following distance. Apparently, though, when some people see a gap ahead of the car in front of him, he says to himself, “This car goes slow. Me pass. Me go fast.” And thus the driver precariously weaves in and out of the slower traffic in the right lane to get ahead of me, now going the exact same speed again but a few yards ahead of me in the line of cars. So, by risking his life and others and expending much gas in the acceleration, he’s knocked approximately 10ms off his commute time. Congratu-f**king-lations!
Even worse, though, is when I have some idiot within inches of my bumper as we’re both speeding on the highway, so I go into the right lane… AND HE DOESN’T GO ANY FASTER! Ends up he was driving that close not because he wanted to go any faster, but just because HE’S A RETARD! One of these days, I’m going to slam on my breaks and let my rear bumper collide with his empty skull.
Anyway, as we all know, cars have horns. They’re great for when someone cuts you off (though by the time I think of hitting the horn, the moment has past – again, reaction time). What America really needs is rear car horns. When someone is right up next to me, I want to blast him in the face with the loudest noise possible. Or hit him with an oil slick like with that car in Spy Hunter. It’s all good.
In conclusion: GET OFF MY ASS!
Thank you.
