Remembering Haiti :: Honoring Our Response
Unbelievable.
I just opened Google News to catch up on the aftermath of Haiti’s devastating earthquake. Up and down, up and down I scrolled searching for a headline or even a link to the name, “Haiti.” Nothing.
Only after clicking on the “World” sidebar tab was I able to locate an article on Haiti, but it was the 7th one from the top of the page.
It’s only been 2 weeks since the earthquake...

By Frank James
The Minneapolis Star-Tribune published a letter from Satan to evangelist Pat Robertson, responding to his comment that Haiti’s persistent troubles, including the earthquake, are due to a pact the nation made with Mephistopheles.
Actually, it wasn’t Satan who...

Andrew Au :: BANQUE D'EPOCH ECLIPSE SERIES :: 2005 →
This print series began as a stepping off point from the print series “A History of Thugs”.

09 + 09 from 09 :: The Dusting Off the Shelves...
Putting together the list of my best reads of 2009 has been very difficult for me.
