Tonight is the State of the Union address (which doesn’t have to be a speech anyway, or even an annual event, just look it up) and as his predecessors have never failed to do, President Barack Obama is certainly poised to waste even more of our money.
But never mind that! The entire western world is anxiously holding its breath over the announcement of Apple’s new tablet!

We’ve gone from eight years of a drunk at the controls, to one year (and counting) of the plane on autopilot.
I’m not seeing how one is any better than the other....

Awright, a disclaimer is in order: at the present time I am still registered as a Republican. That came about two years ago during my flirtation with running for House of Representatives in my district (‘cuz some people were suggesting I take a stab at it, and we all know how much of a sucker I am for that sort of thing given how my Board of Education campaign began). So as of this writing I’m a Republican on paper and haven’t bothered to change that.
What can I say folks? When it comes to things that don’t really matter, I’m lazy.
And because I’ve only always voted for the candidate, never the party. Not once have I filled in the little bubble to vote a straight-party ticket. Hell, I’m of the mind that straight-ticket voting should be forbidden: a voter should be forced to THINK about the people he ...

There are a lot of things running through my head right now about Annie Le, the 24-year old graduate student at Yale who disappeared last week just days before she was to be married. Her body was found this past Sunday hidden in a basement wall of the campus lab where she had been conducting research.
Nothing I might say could add any substantially new comment about how utterly heartbreaking this story is, about how this happened just as Annie was preparing to spend the rest of her life with her husband-to-be.
I’ve wanted to say something about how the mainstream news media has once again sacrificed ethics and principles for sake of an admittedly sensational story. And I’m referring to how the press has been all over the story of Raymond Clark, now the main suspect in Annie Le’s murder (he’s probably being arrested as I write this). ...
Christian denominations are like all families: go back far enough in the history of each, and you’ll find a relative who once wore a rope for a necktie....
In this afternoon’s mail I received some correspondence from the federal government. It was a follow-up to something I had mailed to it previously.
Said original mailing being early last November.
It’s early September now. Ten months.
And we’re supposed to believe this same bunch of bureaucrats should be trusted to run our health care?
Feh!...
