Etymology of 'neo-con': 'neo' is from the Greek neos for 'new'; 'cons' is from the French slang con for 'idiot': thus, the 'new idiots'. That's got to be it, right?

Well, I'll be hornswaggled: JohnHuang2 may be a picture-hijacking dip, clip, cribber, defalcator, larcenist and pilferer, but he's a Martha Stewart fan. I think...

The 'premier conservative news forum' is not above hijacking and copyright violation, it would seem. One JohnHuang2 has hijacked a handout photo of my fellow alum RW 'Johnny' Apple, the NY Times DC bureau chief emeritus from this site. It's being used to illustrate what the author seems to feel is a parody of NYT articles, although the whole thing is utterly impenetrable to me.

After a couple polite attempts to ask them to stop (we only have a 144K net connection, so picture hijacks can seriously degrade our connection) I subbed the photo for this file.

Speaking of conservative Republicans, here's a photo of Ronald Reagan, or at least, of his signature haircut, taken in the 80s. It's correctly linked in the fashion I ask for those who wish to make non-commercial use of photos in the Gulker Photo Archive. Here's Larry Downing's picture of me and other photogs who were on hand to photograph the President that day...

A recent poll found that two-thirds of Americans think George W. Bush is doing a great job running the country. The other one-third can read. From Baratunde R. Thurston on Dave Farber's list this AM...

gulker.com services directory is now available on the domain's utility servers: adelie.gulker.com, galapagos.gulker.com and magellan.gulker.com. The domain convention is to name machines after penguins, btw... and the Gulker Research site listed there isn't quite ready yet...

BBC: "The CIA is at least five years behind the rest of the world when it comes to using technology." Do they use Google? Search, say, on weapons of mass destruction... oops... check the first hit... and the second one is pretty funny...
