Politics and Religion:  (Top Ten)

1. News Source Shapes Perception – A look at how news can shape how you view the world, especially if Fox News is your source.
2. Enablers of Hypocrisy - How do politicians get away with NOT legislating? After all, WE ARE PAYING THESE PEOPLE!
3. A Revolution Of The RIGHT Kind – Let’s just call it what it is. Conservatives want to amend the U.S. Constitution to guarantee that every election has a “proper” verdict. That means that the election is not valid unless they win. How fantastically patriotic.
   
4. Journey of a True Conservative - Oh boy. Here is another black conservative. You thought Micheal Steele was enough?
5. An Angry Black Man - A discussion of the value of life experience and how a person’s background and biases can impact how they interact with the world.
6. The Dwindling Racial Argument - Archie Bunker should have lived to see this day. The world and FOX News would have been his oysters.
7. David Horowitz should stick to pianos - Think of it this way, a black man working at Fox News is like a scarecrow working at a candle store. That is, if the candles have all been lit and the scarecrow has been doused in gasoline.
8. Is Society Outpacing Religion? – How has the role that religion plays in the progress of society changed. Should religion change WITH society?
   
9. Pot and Kettle Call Each Other ‘Blessed’ - Pontiffs can declare each other saints. Why can’t bloggers give each other Pulitzers?
10. The War On ACORN – Sometimes success is not a good thing–if you want to survive. What happens when you are too good at your job?

Funny/Video:

1. Laser Crabs! – That’s right! Crabs with “fricken” lasers on their heads baby!
2. Not Without My Baby – Video. A mother waiting for a train turns her back on her stroller for just a sec. Nothing could go wrong there, right?
3. Sarah Palin Graduates From Evil School – It’ s DOCTOR Evil. I didn’t spend 12 years in evil medical school to be called Mister!
4. Coolest Animation Ever – Stop action video.  Iron Man vs. Bruce Lee
5. Elmo: Heart breaker, name taker – News Report. Elmo is evil and wants to eat your child. Sarah Palin is not the only one who has gone rogue.
6. When Video Is Not Your Friend - It’s simple. Just make a video. When it goes viral, you’ll be famous.  Right?
7. Iron Baby – Tony Stark in diapers.

Tech:

1. Apple’s Fallen Hero? - My all-time most widely read article believe it or not. It’s about Apple’s lie about the iPod touch not getting a camera.
   
2. In Sync- Review. How to keep your browser instances synchronized across machines.
3. Google, You Are Killing Me! - Google Buzz popped into my Gmail one day out of the blue. I mean, what’s life without a few surprises?
