I mentioned a couple of days ago that my upcoming film Indoctrinate U is finally in shape for us to show to distributors. Luckily, that also means that for the first time since starting this project nearly three years ago, I can take an entire week off!

Although I understand that the urge is hard to overcome, I don’t plan on posting anything for the next week. But since I can’t bear the thought of you going without your regular dose of some guy’s opinion, here are just a few of my favorite sites:

• Instapundit, a frequently-updated site run by a robot that claims to be a law professor at the University of Tennessee.
• RealClearPolitics, the political junkie’s well-stocked dealer, providing a twice-daily comprehensive roundup of mainstream media opinion columnists.
• PressThink by NYU professor Jay Rosen, one of the most thorough and thoughtful commentators on the state of the news media, a straight-shooter.
• Mickey Kaus’s column at Slate, KausFiles, is the kind of site you look forward to checking, and then you get mad when it hasn’t been updated.
• James Taranto is another must-read, although he’s on vacation himself, until the 17th.

Let’s see...what else? Oh yeah:

• Anything by Charles Krauthammer, Mark Steyn, Victor Davis Hanson, or Jonah Goldberg.
• And, finally, some comic relief from Greg Gutfeld, Cox & Forkum, and Chris Muir’s Day by Day.

There. That should keep you nice & busy while I’m gone.

I know what you’re thinking; this time apart will be tough, but don’t worry. We’ll get through it. I’ll be back from the offline world soon.

You kids behave, now. I better not come home to find this place in shambles.
