2) Michael Klare reminds us of the folly of taking our way of life for granted (H/T: Jeff)
3) Dr. James Hansen: climate hippie (H/T: Dan Riehl).
4) Wise-guy octopus plays practical joke.
5) At a time when Republicans ought to be looking for common ground with each other, Dick Lugar suddenly gets a case of embargoitis.
6) Sounds like the height of boredom. Can you top it?
7) Paul Harvey – RIP. There was no more comforting, amusing, common-sensical voice on radio when I was growing up than his. God rest his soul (the link is to an outstanding celebration of Harvey by See-Dubya at Michelle Malkin’s).
8) Margo's Maid suggests that the delegation of Hollywood nitwits calling on the Iranian government will probably succeed in living down to our expectations.

1) I've noticed a similar problem with "niceness" in other aspects of society, such as at the office. Incompetence, or at least indifference to consequences of poor performance, is effectively rewarded by being ignored. Any resulting workload increase for competent people is ignored as well, effectively punishing them for good performance.
So maybe the rot is a bit deeper than we think.
4) That octopus is smarter than some politicians I can name.
5) Groan!
6) I'm not sure. Does waiting 12 hours for a military flight in a controlled area with folding chairs and concrete floors after you cleared customs count? At least I had my iPod there.
7) Vale, Mr. Harvey. I grew up listening to you as well. It was always a pleasure.
8) Is it wrong of me to hope that the Iranians invoke their quaint custom of stoning against these Hollywood morons?
9) Too truee.
