Monday digest II

- The list of cities which have now outright cancelled their Dixie Chicks concerts, or at least postponed the onsale dates:

Milwaukee.
Kansas City.
St. Louis.
Indianapolis.
Fresno.
Los Angeles.
Oklahoma City.
Memphis.
Jacksonville.

I almost pity the poor girls. But that's what happens when you take your cues from the Kos crowd and others who a) really had no use for you until you started mouthing off, and b) still don't have any time for your music.

- I wondered if radical Islamists would consider Zarqawi a martyr considering he died at the hands of US bombers rather than by blowing himself up and taking some innocent civilians with him. Sadly, this answers my question.

- Canadians who value the truth 1, sloppy CBC left-wing historical revisionists 0. Then again, this is the taxpayer-funded network that is showing Bowling for Columbine long after Michael Moore said you don't have to be completely accurate when you're making a political point, so what should we have expected?

I don't really feel badly for the Dixie Pigs. I'm probably not "cool" enough to care since I've got both Toby Keith AND Reba McEntire on my iPod. I finally saw their new video. They sound like a female version of Matchbox 20 and I can't quite figure out the role of Martie and Emily in the group anymore. Other than eye candy for the video, do they even participate in the music now? They may find that the Magic 100 crowd doesn't go for the banjo and fiddle sound. LOL - now that is a cool group of fans - adult contemporary!

Did Reba speak against them?

Bring back that family-values balance budget champion!
Then the guy who invented the internet will will for sure!

Farley, they said they don't want fans who listen to Reba and Toby. Check the archives from a few weeks back, I linked to it.

Cuba ... no idea what is going to happen there ... still trying to find out more about George Allen. I know that Newt is trying to cultivate the activist base through the Internet.
