Reconsiderations
I’ve been reconsidering my positions on a few posts:
First, I made too big of a deal about a little girl wanting to go to heaven to be with her hamster. While I’ve run this by atheists who agree with my premise, I should never have done so in a way that it would get back to Poppy or her mother. I think belief in an afterlife is dangerous, but probably benign in a first-world well-off small child raised by a loving mother (and maybe a father) with plans to dispel the myth to her in a few years.
Second, I’ve reconsidered my claim that Kill Bill vols. 1 and 2 should have received NC-17s. I think R is appropriate for the films.
Third, regarding the my quote of the article from The Guardian about George W. in early 2002 that said:
Sooner or later, Mr Bush, self-styled universal soldier for truth, will have to stop pretending that tragedy gave him a free hand to remake America and the world to fit his simplistic, narrow vision — or risk having voters and US allies end the pretence for him.
Turns out, there was an insufficient allotment of brains and balls worldwide, and Bush has been unnervingly and nauseating successful in remaking America. So the paper and I were wrong.
Fourth, something really funny to lighten the mood.

I’ve also reconsidered whether the construct regarding the my quote is grammatically-acceptable.

Honestly, I probably wouldn’t have noticed. :S
