I remember playing with POV-Ray back in the day, and I could only have imagined of creating something like these folks have. Really, really amazing stuff. Like this one for example. Just go browse. Could find yourself some really cool new desktop wallpaper.

So… I was bored and doing a bit of internet navel-gazing and what should I find but a Xanga entry from someone I don’t know saying that I was cited in a speech for my Women are Crazy post. Heh. Cool!

What’s worse than an 8-year old girl raped, buried in a landfill and left for dead? The fact that it wouldn’t have happened if the perpetrator, Milagro Cunningham, an illegal alien, would’ve been deported one of the four times he was arrested prior to committing the crime. In a one-month period last year, Cunningham was arrested [...]
