The "Acceptable Spam" Open Thread

I got some spam dropped in the comments of a post. On reflection folks might be interested, so I started this thread today so as to keep the joint as neat as a Chaos Lord can.

As such, this thread is open for all manner of self-promotion...except this is NOT one of those "everyone automatically posts" threads. We do not want, say, links to nekkidness or goatse or whatever. On the other hand, you got an actual site, I'll check to see it's not a spam blog and approve it...no matter if I think you're ridiculous or if I think you outshine me.

Greater Good Summer Issue: Are we born racist?

Articles from the latest issue of Greater Good magazine are now online at
www.greatergoodmag.org!

At a time when some are heralding a "post-racial" America, our
summer issue considers a vexing question: Are we born racist?

THE PRESIDENTIAL RACE. What impact will Obama's candidacy--or an
Obama presidency--have on race relations in the U.S.? An interview with
historian Clayborne Carson. Link to this article: http://greatergood.berkeley.edu/greatergood/2008summer/Q&A951.html

Also in the issue: Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling on the importance of imagination, efforts to fuse meditation and childbirth, a look at new books on happiness, a conversation between Daniel Goleman and George Lucas, and more!

The worst drivers in the world are white men in pickup trucks. Followed closely by white men in SUVs. Drunk 16 year olds do not even come close.

"The worst drivers in the world are white men in pickup trucks."

I think non-working suburban moms talking on cell phones while driving SUVs have white men in pickup trucks beat by several country miles.
