Maggie's Farm

We are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for.

A Little Prick for Pregnancy

Acupuncture for infertility here.

Is Zapatero Going Down?

He deserves to, but never should have been elected anyway. (PM of Spain, if you forgot his name. Should be called Mr. Lucky.)

Hamilton on Appointments

Federalist 76. Thanks, Real Clear Politics.

NYSE Scandal?

Watch this story unfold - we first posted on it on the 21st, thanks to Opie. Now John Mack joins the fray.

Who is Against Bolton?

You know how The Chairman feels. You won't believe this. From Taranto.

Fat is Good

Big fat surprise. They changed their mind about obesity being a problem - it's just morbid obesity that's a problem. Why didn't the CDC just say what they knew - that fat is unattractive? Click here: TCS: Tech Central Station - Whoppers and the End of an Epidemic

AD/BC

Removing BC and AD from historic time. Maybe some academics just don't have enough to do.

Reporters fired for Drinking Beer

And all along I had thought that drinking was part of their job description. Crazy.
