Open Trackback Friday - February 23, 2007

Just like clockwork (orange), it’s time for Open Trackback Friday! Right now it’s your opportunity to share interesting entries from your very own blog by using this blog’s trackback feature. I and visitors to this blog like to read interesting stuff on others’ blogs. So link your post to this one, send a trackback to it and it’ll appear in the comments section after I manually approve it. I have to approve all comments & trackbacks manually due to spam bots so it won’t show up immediately, but I will get to it as soon as I can. I use myself as the ultimate spam filter. I manually delete all spam before you, the reader, are subjected to it. Just rightclick where it says “trackback” below and then click on “copy shortcut” to get the trackback URL. That’s all there is to it! And thank you in advance for trackbacking to my blog. And while you’re here, please take some time to look at some articles I’ve posted. Maybe you’ll find something interesting. If you do, trackback to it as well.

85 years ago women in America were very modest when they went swimming on public beaches wearing one-piece swimsuits as pictured here. Amazingly, if any Muslim woman today were to wear this outrageously, sexual, sensual, revealing, inviting outfit she …

The Pigeon on Junk Mail and Spam

The first fly has dropped
Will it really come down to Obama vs Hilary? At this point, TFM is barely following either political race. With the exception of Hilary, I haven’t ruled out any of the major democratic candidates a possibility for my 2008 primary vote. That’s if the …

An Inconvenient Exaggeration
It amazes me what counts as a documentary these days.
I do not begrudge Al Gore his Oscar. I do disagree completely with his premise. I just wish the film had been classified more appropriately as fiction, docudrama or fantasy.
