Odds 'n Sods:
Alphie sent us this link: More
people are tapping their 401(k) for cash. JWR's
comment: Notice in the photograph accompanying this article what the
man's elbow is resting on. That picture tells a thousand words.

Bob G. mentioned a
news feed on Asian Avian flu. He said that it is updated once every 15 minutes.

I heard that the organizers of the Appleseed
Project have 13 simultaneous rifle training events (one for each of the original 13 colonies)
planned for April 19th. They are hoping to get 1,000 shooters on the
line that
day.
What
could
be
better
than learning about the events of Lexington and Concord on the anniversary
of their occurrence? The Appleseed training is a bargain. Get involved!

Patrick H. and Ben sent this: Montana
is up in arms
about the supreme court's upcoming D.C. v. Heller decision on the Second Amendment.
Patrick's comments:
"The Montana legislature meets only once every two years, and is not scheduled
to convene again until January of 2009. (OBTW,
perhaps
there
is
a
lesson in there for the career politicians in the more populous states.)
So this resolution was drafted [informally] between the legislative sessions.
I
wouldn't
be
surprised
if
Wyoming
and Idaho
follow suit." OBTW, there is an interesting discussion of the various Heller
court briefs over
at the Volokh
Blog.
