You may be familiar with Lileks "Gallery of Regrettable Food" or his column in the Minnestotan *Star Tribune*.

You might not be so familiar with his blog, one of the most well written (and by turns insighful and entertaining) available for consumption.

I wonder what these nice folks profiled in the article would think if they were exposed to actual violence? I don't think most people talk like that after they've seen it.

His remarks above that article on the rebuilding of the Twin Towers are also well worth reading.

His photo essays are downright hilarious! And I love the gallery of old newspaper ad mascots.

Follow the links the writer gives on his page. That Muslim teen chat page is truly the most horrifying thing I've seen since September 11th. Absolutely chilling--and they are mostly Americans.

Excerpt from end of column
Follow the linked thread fellow FReepers. It's very instructive.

I’d have no interest in this website whatsoever were it not for three things:

1. When there’s a subculture out there ranking the best jihadi decapitation video, you’d best pay attention.

2. When a message board devoted to guidance for Islamic youth doesn’t delete the posts about stabbing Jews, you’d best pay attention.

3. This thread. As far as I can tell, the debate seems to be whether it’s a brother’s job to kill his sexually active sister, or the religious authority’s job.
