Minecraft and Fort Point

You may have heard about this awesome computer game called Minecraft.  It's actually been out for a while now, but I've held off on blogging about it, for one very good reason.  I can explain why this game is awesome, I can link to a review that explains why this game is awesome, but the best writers say "show, don't tell," so I had to wait until I could really show you what makes this game so awesome.

Review: Cowboys & Aliens

Two thumbs up.

I went into this movie determined to like it.  I told my stepfather: "It's either going to be so good it's good, or it's going to be so bad it's good.  It's got Daniel Craig, Harrison Ford, and aliens.  I'm not expecting Citizen Kane."  I was right.

The basic argument: Obama isn't weak; he just isn't a liberal.  Well sure, he's a Democrat, but his record seems awfully conservative.  Bottom line: he's a powerful centrist and Democrats should stop acting surprised when he doesn't advance their liberal agenda.

I disagree.
