Blogging the democratic revolution
I am back from Boston. I’ve never actually been to New England, go figure, but I really liked the city. My posting will resume as normal starting Monday afternoon. Daniel and A.M. Mora y Leon have been doing a fantastic job with their posts while I was gone and deserve a big hand for their…
Hey everyone, I will be in Boston from now until Sunday evening. In the meantime, you’ll have the other three holding a beach party. Feel free to drink, be merry, and discuss international politics!
I put up a little contact form at the left side of the site. You can still contact me by email, though. Mainly what I’d like you to use it for is sending me tip-offs to news or blog entries that are relevant. This way I could definitely get to everything in a day. Strangely…
I was just reading A.M. Mora y Leon’s post right below this one and a website I remember from a long time ago clicked into my head: cafepress.com. They let you create clothing and apparel using your own images. I figure if Che tees are for the old and unhip, then democracy gear must be…
Damn Nathan for hitting me with this chain letter! I’ll get him back for it! But who can refuse a chain letter? Plus, it’s about books, so instead of me writing about secret crushes and first kisses, I’ll be pointing you in the direction of good bathroom material. He did forward this to me to…
For everyone visiting — relax. Well, after you’ve read what we’ve put up today. Have a beer, spend some time with the family. The world can wait one day for something like that. So on behalf of all the great people here at Publius Pundit, Happy Easter!
This is just a friendly notice that Andy from Siberian Light has purchased a blogad, money that will go toward paying our hosting costs. He has a very good blog that I reference often, and he also provides huge weekly news roundups of what’s going on in Russia. Check him out.
A lot of stuff is going on in the world. We’ve got a Lebanon roundup coming up for you as the day gets started there, with a focus on the role of Hizb’allah and an opposition group called Lebanese Forces. The Moldovan elections are on Sunday, and I’ll prepare a primer to those for you…
Well, Blogads went ahead and approved my blogads strip, so now you can buy advertising at a great price on a great website. Any money raised through these ads will be used either to pay for hosting fees, advertise on other blogs, or pay for online news subscriptions. Counters for website traffic are located on…
Hey everyone. Yesterday was a long day, to note, I just woke up from my twelve hour slumber. Since many of you have never been here before, I thought I would give you a run down of what this site is about and what we’ll be covering post-revolution in Lebanon. We will definitely be keeping…
All this stuff finally came in the mail today. The books from Amazon.com, both of which you can order on the left hand side. The other shipment was from an Ebay seller, directly from Ukraine. I finally got a Yuschenko TAK! scarf! Now, before I go to bed, I would like to give a special…
Ben Morgan from Swarthmore College’s War News Radio program contacted me via email and is going to do a phone interview in about an hour. It sounds like a load of fun, I’ve never done that before. So hey, if anyone else wants to interrogate me, by all means, email me! UPDATE: Alright, interview is…
It’s only for two days, so don’t worry too much about it. I have a lot of work to do in my school life. We’re performing a mock trial on Saturday and I need to be prepared for it. I also have a lot of essays to write as the quarter comes to a close….
I’m upgrading WordPress, so temporarily there should be some problems, like the website not working. Should be working soon though. UPDATE: IT WORKED! Maybe soon now I can do a redesign of the website. Very cool. DONE: Alright, this is what I’ve come up with so far. Feel free to make suggestions! As for me,…
That’s all for tonight folks. Still trying to drag out this research paper with as much useless information as possible. It’s sad, because I think a paper on the costs of sustaining unemployment offices vs. the benefits they retrieve is an interesting subject, and one that deserves much more time than I have to dedicate….
I will be doing my daily updates a bit later tonight. I had quite a few exams today, a research paper to write, and my interview with Harvard (that went extremely well). I’ll take a nap, and in a couple of hours, get on it. In the meantime, you can donate to my, er, college…
I forgot that my big research paper for the year is due on Monday. Oops. If anyone knows about how the Office of Unemployment in Florida (or anywhere else) works, let me know. Specifically if it saves the government more money than it puts into preventing fraudulent unemployment claims.
Remember when we were mocking the French (well, it’s not like we ever stopped…) and we renamed french fries to “freedom fries” and french kissing to “freedom kissing?” I was just reading and found out that during World War One, sauerkraut was renamed to “liberty cabbage” and hamburger was renamed to “liberty steak.” It looks…
There keep being reasons to break my no blogging rule for today, and you are all one of them. Thanks for the publicity Glenn. If you’ve never been here before — and chances are, you haven’t — check out the rest of the site. If you like what you see, send an email my way,…
The Superbowl is on. I hope you will all forgive me!
I’ve decided I’m going to start taking the weekends off from blogging. Trust me, I have this obsessive compulsive desire to do it, but its because of blogging during the week that I have to catch up on my work over the weekend! So let’s see how long I go before I break this promise.
The shirts for my newspaper staff just came in this week. And they’re orange!
Discoshaman posted regarding keeping his bias out of his Ukraine commentary. This was interesting to me, because I had been pondering a similar question earlier. Should I really be taking news out of countries where I have little expertise, and making analyses of what is happening there? Hmm. Definitely not. I will post analysis commentary…
Hello everyone — all three of you. For those who don’t know me, I am incredibly witty, attractive, and funny. For those who do, shut up and don’t tell them otherwise. This will be a blog about the worldwide democratic revolution. I figure there are enough socialists spreading their dogma around that there needed to…
