Right now they're not bad. During the election, I got a ton of them for NewsMax. But perhaps this is Google taunting me ... :) -David I don't mind the ads ... they seem to be nicely targeted.

Stare deep into the eyes of the kittens... you are getting sleepy... you are reaching for your checkbook... Heh. No puppy-lovers here? I thought that was a mighty bi-partisan (bi-petian?) drawing of Santa, myself, although the puppies-to-kittens ratio is higher than I would have liked. Heh. As Santa would say: "Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good... hey, wait, that's not a toy... let go of it!... dammit, come back here with my hat!!!" :-) -CW David -

Nice photoshop work on the kitten hat, Chris! Many Christmas thanks for the excellent work this year as well. Your columns have been a favorite of mine since 2007 mainly because I don't believe you see much of what you do in the mainstream media. You see a lot of conflict and hyperbole in the MSM. But you have a unique knack for putting things in perspective and historical context and cutting through all the screaming and yelling. I use material I find here all the time in discussions with my friends- both conservative and liberal- so I put a high value on your column. This is why I'll continue to offer my match this year up to $300. Which Michale looks like he may push ... heheh. Thank you again and looking forward to more in 2013! -David p.s. Must ... not ... gaze into eyes ... of kittens :) p.s.s. http://uncrate.com/p/2012/06/macbook-pro-retina-xl.jpg Heheheh. Nice photoshop work on the kitten hat, Chris!
