I voted for Barack Obama and I’m proud of it!

This morning  I voted for Barack Obama.  And I think that he can win.  I certainly hope he does. I probably would have voted for who ever the Democratic candidate was, but I doubt I would have been this excited about it.  At the beginning of this cycle I didn’t think that Obama could possibly [...]

Random Thoughts XIII

I watched the debate last night.  I keep hearing that this debate was close.  Go figure.  Obama was clear and consise and told us exactly what he want to do.  McCain was angry.  Very angry.  I can’t belive that anyone actually wants to vote for this guy.  Now all the Replublicans understand what it felt [...]

Of politics and the economy…

I’m tired.  The kind of tired that sleeping doesn’t fix.  The last two weeks have been long.  But that doesn’t seem to matter.  Life marches forward, whether I’m ready or not. So I keep marching. One of the real downsides of following the primaries and presidential races in detail for as long as I have [...]

This and That…

Obama still hasn’t texted me.  Which I suppose is fine, but what’s the point of letting his supporters be the first to know, if you are gonna stall long enough to let the media scoop you? I saw the Clone Wars movie tonight and I liked it.  As a matter of fact, in many ways [...]

Like you would do better

This concept of a two year build up to the Presidential elections needs to be rethought. There is no reason for it. Of course, whenever I say that some asshat speaks out and says, ‘but I love this stuff.’ That’s the whole problem. I can’t help but believe that the only reason this process has [...]

Random Thoughts XII

I went backpacking. Again. I know, it’s almost boring. It was a great weekend. I’m sure its just me being paranoid, but as the end of Dubya’s term gets closer, I keep waiting for some one to announce that they are extending his term indefinitely, citing terrorist threats and what not. Thanks Monty, Mango and [...]

Lunchtime blogging

I come home for lunch each day. I only live a few miles from work and I find it to be the easiest way to go. I am counting my calories these days. With great success, I might add. I have lost 15 or so pounds in the last month. I have twenty some odd [...]

Random Thoughts XI

I’m in a shitty mood this morning. Of course, it is almost afternoon. This isn’t helping my mood out at all. But none of that matters. From inside my skull: I’ve been looking a bit at the new Vista OS. It’s pretty good, of course it ought to be after 5 years or so of [...]

et cetera

In case you don’t know… I have been doing this dumbass ‘Internet Radio Show’ for the last year or so. The imaginary Internet Radio Station that it aired on is going off the ‘air.’ If you want more information go here. I guess all of this has me thinking about the nature the Internet, as [...]

Random Thoughts IX

I’m still reeling about Syd. It’s not like the news was shocking or upsetting exactly. But the end to this tragic story has kept my mind in motion. I may have more to say about Syd, but it hasn’t quite solidified in my mind. Also, I expect that this week’s Radio Show will have a [...]
