More bullets

Here are some interesting reads from the interweb.

  • The Push to ‘Otherize’ Obama (from The New York Times) The money quote: Just imagine for a moment if it were the black candidate in this election, rather than the white candidate, who was born in Central America, was an indifferent churchgoer, had graduated near the bottom of his university class, had dumped his first wife, had regularly displayed an explosive and profane temper, and had referred to the Pakistani-Iraqi border ...
  • Company Invented a Suit That Can Be Worn in Shower (from InfoNIAC.com) This reminds me of that first bizarre Seinfeld/Gates commercial.
  • Virus Infects Space Station Laptops (Again) (from Wired.com)
  • The 10 Villains Who Deserved Better (from Topless Robot) Now, I don't normally advocate for evil, but I have to agree this: Despite his totally awesome double-bladed lightsaber and totally sweet hover bike and bitchin’ horns, Darth Maul is barely around for two fights. They’re well-choreographed fights, but they don’t really fill in much. For his motivations and whatnot, you’ll have to check the “expanded” Star Wars stories. And that just kicks off other problems.
  • Chuck Norris Roundhouse Kicks Politics (and Logic) on CNN (from Cracked.com)
  • Enjoy the rest of your Monday.
