The Corner’s Quote of the Day:
“If you were forced to live with the Clinton’s day in and day out, you’d throw yourself in traffic, too!” from Laura Ingraham.

Alrighty. Making progress. Added a hit counter and that tell-a-friend thing. It is kinda ugly (although I appreciate the service Bravenet), so I am not sure if it will last. If I can figure out how to modify the colors, I will. I will keep you posted.
The folks at The Libertarian
The folks at The Libertarian Samizdata express some of my sentiments on the Euro far more succinctly that I have… All I managed to muster is I thought it was dumb and ugly. They agree, but they state it much more eloquently.
Everyone is talking about Cornell
Everyone is talking about Cornell West and the Harvard Flap. CheckInstapundit, check the Economist, check all the other blogs. I refuse to talk about it. My stance is, and will be, that Cornell West is a Bleeding Idiot and should be ignored. Of course, by talking about him I have failed to follow my own advice.
National Review Online documents the
National Review Online documents the death of the Kyoto Treaty now that Japan has deep-sixed it. In other treaty news, read this little story about the real losers in 2001, International Treaties.

I just loved this quote, from what I think is just a great movie. At any rate, we will have a Leonard Shelby award here at the Curmudgeon’s Corner.

Worth a read, and was better than my treadmill at getting my blood flowing.
