Dustinland - The Same Story

This week’s Dustinland isn’t about a story that’s repeated over and over again (although it is). It’s about a story about how people like to vote for whatever is the same. The same sex, race, religion, whatever. Forget the issues. Forget where they stand on the economy, foreign policy, blah blah blah. All that matters [...]

Dustinland - American Beer

This week’s Dustinland is almost a metaphor for what’s going on in the US right now with our economic crisis and all. Our economy was supposedly doing great for years - but now we see that it was all fake. A big fat fake bubble full of air and lies. Just like all these big [...]

Dustinland - McCain vs. McCain

This week’s Dustinland needs little explanation on my part. I’m just putting McCain’s own words out there.

John McCain Secures Nomination

It’s official: following a snarky-yet-fairly-entertaining speech from Rudy Guiliani and strong speech from VP nominee/Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, the Republican Party’s delegates have voted, and John Sydney McCain III has secured the GOP nomination for President of the United States. One more big speech tomorrow, then the countdown to the first debate on September [...]

Dustinland - Peedom Isn’t Free (In Yankee Stadium)

When a friend of mine first emailed me about the events inspiring this week’s Dustinland, I didn’t think I’d be hearing about them later on the evening news. But it became a big story pretty quickly, and people I know out in California have heard all about it. So I may not be breaking any [...]
