“We are Forerunners. Guardians of all that exists. The roots of the Galaxy have grown deep under our careful tending. Where there is life, the wisdom of our countless generations has saturated the soil. Our strength is a luminous sun, towards which all intelligence blossoms… And the impervious shelter, beneath which it has prospered.”

Bar fighting with El Guapo

God bless Bas Rutten: This is actually a heavily condensed and edited version of Bas Rutten’s original street fighting instructional DVD. Looking at it from the perspective of someone who does a street-geared martial art, I can tell you this- everything...

Trust

Lord but it is good to be back home. (Going back to work and having my extroverted colleague yapping in my ear all the time, not so much…) Yet I cannot help but feel a wrenching sense of loss at having left Eretz Israel. I have said it before, and now I...

“Daft cow”, indeed

Yet another clueless staff writer at the Telly is having immense trouble understanding why women should not act like men, and vice versa: My wise, old dad always said: “You can say anything as long as you say it with a smile on your face.” Luckily, I was 10 and knew...

Go kick the bucket

Aaron Clarey gives the only possible rational response to this stupid ALS ice bucket challenge that’s sweeping the globe, for reasons that I completely fail to understand: Look, I’ll make this really simple. This is a disease that affects a total of up to...

Now he’s just showing off…

If ever we needed evidence as to why Roger Federer is such a joy to watch on the tennis court: The thing is, the ball on which he hit that ridiculously awesome ‘tweener was actually out. And he still tracked it down, whacked it between the legs, and managed...

RIP Robin Williams

I can’t think of a better send-off for a great comic actor and evidently thoroughly decent human being than the one that Terrence Popp and Blake O. Kleiner put together: Clear skies, Mr. Williams. May you find peace and grace in the arms of the Lord. Share this:...

Drive-by country

Molotov Mitchell has some rather trenchant observations to make about the State of New Jersey, on his way to making some quite poignant observations about lone soldiers fighting for Israel: Unfortunately, I can’t really avoid NJ. I live in the state. I do,...

Leave the barbarians alone

Pat Buchanan proves, yet again, exactly why the rest of the country should be listening to him very closely when it comes to foreign policy: But before allowing these “Cassandras” to stampede us back into the civil-sectarian Middle East wars that resulted from our...

A cautionary tale

I’ve been seeing various pundits talking about front-runners for the job of President of the United States once Obarmy’s term finally ends in 2016 (unless you people actually do what is right for a change and IMPEACH THE BASTARD!!!). Evidently, the...

Drummer joke

A rock drummer and avid RUSH fan (that’s kind of redundant, by the way) dies and goes to Heaven. He is met at the gates by St. Peter, who proceeds to show him around the place. It’s all very nice and enjoyable, but then the drummer hears something that he...
