"The superior man, when resting in safety, does not forget that danger may come. When in a state of security he does not forget the possibility of ruin. When all is orderly, he does not forget that disorder may come. Thus his person is not endangered, and his States and all their clans are preserved." -- Confucius

Bloggers, Pajamas, and other deep thoughts...

I'd Rather Be Blogging

John Fund -- A watershed media moment occurred Friday on Fox News Channel, when Jonathan Klein, a former executive vice president of CBS News who oversaw "60 Minutes," debated Stephen Hayes, a writer for The Weekly Standard, on the documents CBS used to raise questions about George W. Bush's Vietnam-era National Guard service.

Mr. Klein dismissed the bloggers who are raising questions about the authenticity of the memos: "You couldn't have a starker contrast between the multiple layers of check and balances [at '60 Minutes'] and a guy sitting in his living room in his pajamas writing."

This is sure to launch the next great trend to sweep the blogosphere. Glenn Reynolds is suggesting that we take a tip from Honest Abe, Blackfive has a nice family shot, while Frank J's recreation puts the History Channels new Decisive Battles show to shame.

I don't wear pajamas. Haven't in years, and while I'm sure everyone is just dying to see me in a set of footies... I'm gonna do ya one better.

(Someone who is totally not me, filling out a set of PJs better than I ever could.)

I'm gonna go out onna limb here and say, this was probably a better choice.
