Then sink your teeth into The Snark Hunt, a delightful repast served up by Kate over at Electric Venom.

While you're there, tell Kate how nice her new layout is.

The Cul-de-Sac has returned! For all y'all what don't know what the Cul-de-Sac is, allow me to 'splain. Every once in a while Kelley would gather up links to the best posts on the blogs she was reading. Sort of a one woman Carnival of the Vanities. Kelley's reading a whole heap of blogs now and this Cul-de-Sac is a monster.

This is a great place to go if you are looking for new blogs to read. Kelley's already done the filtering for ya so you can find what's a good read right quick.

Open a book and go to page 23. What does the fifth sentence say?

That computers must facilitate the selling function for a distributor today and certainly in the 1990s!

From Distribution Inventory Management by Gordon Graham. Hey, I'm at work y'all. The alternative was TCP/IP Network Administration by Craig Hunt. Oh, wait a second! I've got a Chick-fil-A kid's meal book somewhere...ah, here it is...Coral Reef, no author...oh, yeah, this is much better:

These special fat tentacles smell food.

That's good enough for use as a tag line.

There's going to be a royal rumble! Michele's going to smear Dean! No joke! Dean thinks he can get more people to support Spirit of America than she can. Yeah, right Dean. Thank you for playing.

Spirit of America is a neat idea. It's to get a radio station in Iraq that'll put out things like the truth so folks will have something to get their news from besides al Aqsa al Jazeera radio.

The fight starts Monday but I'm not waiting til then to stand on the right side of the circle. Let Michele know that you've got her back too. Can't be too careful with that Dean character, if you know what I mean.

To arms! To arms!

Sir Robert has declared war on an annoying form-letter spewing PR hack named James Fryer. Help the cause by sending James some inane answers to his questions. Make them just kooky enough to be from a genuine interloon and we can absorb loads of their time and corrupt their evil data. And make sure to properly format his email address so it is picked up by all of the spambots.

Here's what I'm sending him: more...

The Letter of the Day is "P".

"P" is for Pathetic. Simon's second attempt at Frankbaiting was a pathetic failure.

Christine comments on Rooney.

Excerpt:

Sometimes I wonder if they understand what they are saying. I fear they know all too well. Our military fights for this country, we fight for the policies of the duly elected representatives that we chosen by the people. We fight for the principles that allow our countrymen to live in freedom. We fight so that our allies, who also believe in those principles, have those same freedoms. Those who claim that this war is not in their name, undermine those reasons. They tear away with dull claws the cloak of honor that our military wears to battle.

The emphasis is mine. Does she nail it there or what? Honor is the key difference between our soldiers and the forces that they are fighting and demagogues like Rooney try their hardest to destroy that.

Submit to the Symphony: Want to be a part of next week's edition? Check out this post for submission help. Entries should always be sent to bestofme@jpeacock.net regardless of who the Symphony host is.

Spread the word: Webloggers, how about a link for Dave? He'd do it for you!

Email Reminders: If you'd like to be sent a reminder about the Symphony, join the mailing list. There's one email sent on Thursday or Friday to remind you to submit for the next Symphony and one on Monday with the location of the newly posted Symphony.

Unfortunately I don't have an orgasm link for you. Well I did but that was earlier and it's no good now. I'm just not up to getting another one just yet. Sorry. You know it happens to every blogger eventually.

So anyway, the Letter of the Day is "O".

"O" is for Oblique Orb for the Orthodox Ovulator.

For those of you keeping track of such things:

The "hearts and minds" in Iraq that can be swayed by negotiation, humanitarian support, liberalism and cultural sensitivity have already been won.

The "hearts and minds" of those who view negotiation, humanitarian support, liberalism and cultural sensitivity to be signs of weakness, are being won over now.

In a matter of speaking.

Well said!

I did a double take when I opened up WizBang last night. There was a John Kerry advertisement!

Kevin's not a rabid righty but he's made it pretty clear that he thinks pretty poorly of Special K. His guest bloggers are pretty much the same. Then it hit me - is this beautiful or what? John Kerry is supporting WizBang! His wife's money is helping to keep a popular blog on the internet and that blog is one that is ...er... less than supportive of Captain Catsup himself. What a beautiful ironic turn!

You go, Kevin!

The Letter of the Day was is "N".

"N" is for Nihilism. Recently published graduation rates may cause people to wonder if America's school systems are practicing nihilism.

The national graduation rate for the public school class of 2000 was 69%. The rate for white students was 76%; for Asian students it was 79%; for African-American students it was 55%; for Hispanic students it was 53%; and for Native Americans it was 57%.

Kate is reporting on some rather distressing news. American airmen have been ordered to take down their flags at Kirkuk air base. The higher ups fear it might offend some of the locals.

Of course the regular troops can't say anthing about it - orders are orders. They can't say anything about how it feels to be told to take down the symbol of their pride, the symbol of their country, the symbol of why they are in a god-forsaken (or should that be Allah-forsaken?) desert doing their utmost to fix somebody else's problem while powerhungry local warlord wanna be's try to kill them. So I will do something that I don't normally do. I will take it upon myself to express their opinions for them. I do this only because as an 8 year vet I have a fair understanding of the workings of a serviceman's mind and a good idea of the scuttlebutt that's most likely going on in the barracks of Kirkuk.

To the jackass who decided that taking down the American flag was a swell idea:

Eat shit and die you mealy-mouthed appeasement pimp. Get one of your Spaniard friends and your French policy advisor to help you dig your head out of your ass long enough to look around at the men you are supposedly leading. Your mamby-pampy touchy-feely bullshit is not only unnecessary it is putting those men in greater danger. You are in an area of the world where the only thing that is respected is a show of strength and you are busy showing your belly.

You do so totally suck that it is beyond my ability to express just exactly how low my opinion of you is.

Kate has asked for a show of support. Since our soldiers aren't allowed to fly our flag, let's fly flags for them. I've already got a brace of them flying at the homestead and I'm happy to add one here. Feel free to snag this one for your own use. Or if you'd prefer, Kate's got a very nice one. She's got a nice flag too.
