I submit to you that this is the most obtuse line ever typed into the internet by someone over the age of 15. I marvel.
It’s staggering, really…it’s as if his entire life has been lived underneath a flowerpot on your back patio, or behind a bush, and yet it hasn’t. He’s a worldly dude, a veteran and a scholar. But you simply can’t help but wonder what other social phenomenons have escaped his notice.

Either my computer is on the fritz, or the balloon juice link is dead.

No, it’s working…just checked. But the whole post is pointless…it’s that one classic line.

Yep, I got through that time. Well, it does say “ill-informed banter” in the subtitle.

I think that this statement solidifies that claim for all eternity.

Maybe next, he’ll make a trip to Starbucks and write about the wondrous things he encounters!

Not that there’s anything wrong with that.
In other news, Instapundit boosts Megan McArdle with her post on illegal immigrants being a substitute for women doing housework as underwritten about. Dearie, nothing is underdiscussed anymore on the Internet.

Chuck, I have to admit that I hadn’t read a single word about the illegals/housewives topic until I saw that post by Dear Leader. His were all I read, as I personally think it’s blindingly fucking obvious that many housewives are using cheap labor to raise their kids and clean their houses so they can go do Pilates and such.
In that sense, it’s underdiscussed, and I’d frankly prefer that it stay that way. It means we’re printing money. What is discussable is what is being done with that money, of course. I’d posit that it is better put to other uses than freeing up Mommy and Daddy for more masturbatory bullshit, but I’m a coelecanth in that way. Did I spell that right? T. Rex, then.
