Anyone calling Paul charismatic, humorous, or timeless is probably suffering a terrible case of confirmation bias.

After attending Comic Con, Graeme (Simon Pegg) and Clive (Nick Frost) rent an RV and visit numerous alien hotbed locations. After an eventless handful of alien-friendly stops and pictures of empty landscapes, their trip comes to an abrupt stop when a car in front of them rolls off the road. When they get out to help the driver, they are shocked by whom they find behind the wheel: Paul the alien (voiced by Seth Rogen). Paul convinces them to take him north to save him from government agents (Jason Bateman, Bill Hader, Joe Lo Truglio) who are on the hunt to take him back to Area 51.

The beginning of the movie starts off with some promise. Paul stars Simon Pegg and Nick Frost as adorably chubby, slightly awkward yet noble geeks with an [...]

The point raised by yesterday's Times article on Ron Paul was that while Paul attracts big crowds, these crowds do not translate into voter turnout.

Perhaps the problem is that Paul has appeal within his fervent base, but that base is unable to influence people outside the circle. If Paul can attract thousands to a rally, many more should actually vote for him. Paul himself discusses the problem in the article:

"I don't have a full answer for that," says Mr. Paul, who says he believes ballot irregularities have chipped into his numbers in some places. He adds, "I think there's some problem with always making sure this energy is translated into getting to the polls."

Perhaps the answer is clicktivism. Paul's fervent base is all over the internets, commenting on this blog for instance, but clicks and comments do not create voter [...]

Last year Rand Paul made some politically stupid, but perfectly libertarian comments: INTERVIEWER: Would you have voted for the Civil Rights Act of 1964? PAUL: I like the Civil Rights Act in the sense that it ended discrimination in all public domains, and I’m all in favor of that. INTERVIEWER: But? PAUL: You had to [...]

Ron Paul fans should be careful about what they wish for.

The only question is- just how far back? Paul doesn’t think there should be federally mandated mine safety laws, in a state where coal miners tend to die a lot. Paul doesn’t think much of the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act, so at least, he’d like to go back to 1977. Paul is opposed to abortion, [...]

AN ITALIAN sculptor has agreed to make some changes to a statue of Pope Paul John Paul II which some say looks more like the fascist dictator Mussolini than the late Pope. The 16ft, four-ton statue – the work of Oliviero Rainaldi, 55 – appeared last spring outside Rome’s main train station, much to the [...]

Continuing on with nostalgic musical transitionals, this next song is “From St.Kilda to Kings Cross” by Paul Kelly, a famous Australian artist who is perhaps widely unknown outside this country.

Many of Kelly’s songs are about Australian places and culture, and this song is no different – the lyrics reference St. Kilda, a suburb of Melbourne, and Kings Cross, a locality in Sydney. Like the previous song I shared, “Cattle and Cane”, this one was introduced to me by my father, a huge [...]
