    Injuns on Film

    OK, we've accepted that it's politically OK for Native characters to be played by Native actors of any nation, but is it politically correct for a Hawaiian Native to play a continental Injun? If so, how about other Polynesians?

    Prince Harry

    Gotta say, Blackleaf, as great as he was in England, he is RIPPING IT UP in Bundesliga. He's well on track to easily beat Lewandowski's 41 Bundesliga goals in a season (which beat Gerd Mueller's 40 goals back in the 70s). But he'll come home every now and again to play for the England side.

    Gang Fight in New Jersey

    Authorities say a major fight broke out between two groups of mostly-Black youth in New Jersey last night. The differing colors worn by the two groups indicated that the fight may have been gang-related. An elderly White man was injured and had to be taken to the hospital. The final score was...

    A Warrior Passes

    I went to a religious service today. We were honoring Sgt. First Class Isaac Cotes, US Army. He passed at 94, decades after his 22 years of service in the Army. Whatever your political inclinations, please remember that M Coates gave his all for 22 years that ;you might be free.

    What's the Difference Between Frodo and Gollum?

    If you recollect the book, in the end Frodo did the same thing Gollum did: claimed the ring as his own. Gollum got a lava bath, Frodo was celebrated and revered as a hero and went to eternal bliss in the closest thing Tolkein's world had to heaven. What's fair about that? Maybe Tolkein's god...

    Not-Really-Very Deep Thoughts

    My preferred brand of espresso is available in steel cans with plastic tops, or in those vacuum-sealed aluminum "bricks." Both are 10 ounces (283 grams). Every now and then, presumably for inventory reasons, one or the other will be offered for about 35% off. Now, being a scary non-White...
