There’s a little more that needs to be said about the Ground Zero Mosque.  I’ve described the nuts and bolts of it here.

Supporters of the mosque’s construction like to create several intellectual dodges in order to bolster their opinions.  I’ve already addressed the first one: that it’s legal because it’s in the Constitution and in [...]

The perfect gift for butthurt Obama voters concerned about their Messiah’s significant disapproval ratings.

We went to see Avatar at the local IMAX 3-D theater yesterday.

The 3-D experience was quite remarkable.  I’d read about people feeling nauseous upon seeing it, but all I experienced was a mild headache and eyestrain from the effects.  I still prefer 2-D, though, and won’t be seeing any other 3-D movies for some time; [...]

In January of this year, Col. Richard Kemp, former commander of the British [...]

I love to cook, and especially to bake.  Several years ago, I made Becky a batch of apricot-pistachio biscotti, and the experience was somewhat…surprising.  Not pleasantly so.

The problem was that the recipe didn’t adequately prepare you for the difficulty of working with the dough/batter.  Mixed properly, biscotti dough acts very much like a thick paste.  [...]

Hi!

Digital Biscotti is my personal website.  After having run the group blog The Waterglass since its inception in August of 2003, I have decided to step down and run my own site.

Food, politics, current events, adoption issues, books, movies: all are grist for my mill.  Other things will also be discussed, many of which will [...]
