When the NY synagogue “terrorist” plot hit the news, I said, “This sounds awfully familiar.” It reminded of the story of Hemant Lakhani, a fellow the FBI hired to acquire an anti-aircraft missile for them, then sold him the very missile they asked him to acquire, and then arrested him for illegal arms dealing.

It turns out the latest arrests aren’t much different.

I feel a lot safer knowing the FBI is going out, convincing people to join an FBI-invented terrorist plot, then arresting them for it.

It pays what I was making, and I start tomorrow.

It’s at a law firm, and I can wear jeans.

Dear Governor Riley,

Please consider signing HB373, the Gourmet Beer Bill. I grew up in Alabama, and my family still lives there. When I go to visit, I shocked by the lack of choices of finely crafted beer available.

Making good beer available is a responsible way of promoting responsible drinking. Alcoholic beverages should be drunk for the pleasure of the taste more than the effect. What if Alabama were to outlaw all wine except the cheapest, worst tasting varieties? How can we teach our children about responsible drinking if the only thing available to them is Thunderbird, Boone’s Farm, or Mad Dog 20/20? A fine beer is like a fine wine, meant to be enjoyed for its flavor, not guzzled for its effect.

Do the responsible thing. Sign HB373.

Thank you very much for your continued service to the great state of Alabama.

This is awesome. I knew it was just a matter of time.

I really am going to laugh when my lazy fat-ass outlives all you vitamin-popping, broccoli-eating freaks.
