Welcome to Buster's Blog

Irregular commentary on whatever's on my mind -- politics, sports, current events, and life in general. After twenty years of writing business and community newsletters, fifteen years of fantasy baseball newsletters, and two years of email "columns", this is, I suppose, the inevitable result: the awful conceit that someone might actually care to read what I have to say. Posts may be added often, rarely, or never again. As always, my mood and motivation are unpredictable.

Elvis Costello On The Death Of Satire


(As you may recall, PRISM is the government computer system which collects foreign intelligence data for the NSA.)


"You've got the idiocy that PRISM, the NSA stuff, has a logo.  I'm sorry, there's a design department at the secret government agency?  Satirical literature can't exist anymore, because it's in our newspapers everyday."
