New Front in War On Christmas?
Dallas Blog extended its slide into self-parody for a second straight day with a story by Tom McGregor titled, "Demise of Fairy Tales to Political Correctness." Apparently, the counterattack against the War on Christmas has gone so well that Dallas Blog has decided to open a new front. Turn to Dallas Blog for all the latest news on the efforts to defend the Seven Dwarfs from vicious attacks by over-protective parents.
What Not To Do About Icing Trees
Extending the parody theme, I am not sure whether Frontburner's Tim Rogers was kidding or not when he blogged that his tree is "so laden with ice that its lowest branches are drooping to the ground. Now then. My backyard thermometer reads 34. So I got my garden hose and sprayed some of the boughs, thinking that the warm(er) water would melt the ice." Rogers ought to just tape a sign on his back, "Kick me." Frontburner readers obliged, as expected.
Not a Prayer
Jeffrey Weiss, in The Dallas Morning News Religion blog, reports that the Indianapolis Star made some changes to its newspapers. Change always elicits reader complaints. In this case, the most controversial move seems to be the elimination of the daily prayer on page A2.
Someone has to say it. At the rate they are losing readers, newspapers don't have a prayer.
