Yes it is time once again to add a link to the Blog Roll. Let’s give a tip of the Fedora to the charming Roxeanne of Haemet.
She is exactly the type of woman I hope my sons eventually find and marry.

Dan Collins endorces the entire “Have Fedora will Travel” meme

Of course he is a member of the Axis of Fedora (in fact a charter member and he wore the Same Fedora at the Scott Brown victory party that got Smitty into GQ. So he knows the power of the Fedora:
You know that lazy SOB in your newsroom? No, not him . . . the other one. Okay, the other other one. Why not replace him and save your paper some dough in the process.
I knew there was a reason why I bought his book on Friday.
You haven’t bought his book yet? You should, he is nice guy. A scholar who can both quote Dante in Italian and write as blunt as a sailor in a tavern after his ship pays off. The man who can produce this reaction from my wife, and this reaction from his Co-blogger that I met at CPAC:
thinking of Dan, and really hope he’s going to be okay. Cannot really have fun until he is better.
When a young woman enjoying her first CPAC final thought is for the health of her friend and co-blogger that co-blogger must be special.
If a guy like that isn’t worth the price of a book I’d like to know what is?
A dear friend of mine just started a new blog a few weeks ago

It’s called the Job Corps Fraud Blog and it is worth your time.
The author is one of the most honest and honorable people I know. Her story is here. I would believe her word on a blog over a sworn statement on a stack of bibles from a lot of other people.
Dan Rather is apparently taking speaking lessons from Joe Biden or something…

I didn’t hear about the Dan Rather “Watermelon” business until a few minutes ago, which begs two questions…
1. Did I not hear about it because the MSM protects its own?
2. Did I not hear about it because nobody watches Chris Matthews show so nobody knew it happened?
So if a former news anchor takes a rhetorical fall in a show with few real viewers does he make a sound?
I guess so.
Oh and I guess we live in the post racial society because this story doesn’t rate a memeorandum link at all. I wonder if it would have been different if his name was Brit Hume?
Update: I figured it was implicit in the link that this was left coast rebel’s story. I haven’t heard any feedback on it but on reflection I really should have given him an explicit shout out. Consider it done.
