I know, I’ve been letting this blog languish a bit. It will soon be coming to an end as Beth and I are moving into a much bigger apartment. The move will be done on Friday evening and my internet will be back on Saturday. Expect updates then!
Sorry for the away time, [...]
From the “Photography is Not A Crime” File:
(White Plains, Westchester County -WABC, March 21, 2006) – A local photographer is looking for an apology after he was held for hours by police. He was taken into custody for questioning because of what he decided to snap a couple of shots of.

The lamp has a cork bottom that is great for sticking notes and reminders, too. Choose from red, orange, blue or green. The light bulb fits right into the push pin head, and to make this sucker light up you just press down on the top of the push pin.

It’s very interesting how we’ve now gotten our hands on some of Saddam’s archives and the kind of information we’ve found in them. It’s also interesting, however, to see how little buzz is generated around them. The information found in these documents is a goldmine, and the only thing I can think of [...]
Hmmmmm… ABC News Producer John Green apparently doesn’t like George Bush…
Way to be completely objective there, Johnny Boy…
Oh, and don’t bother questioning the authenticity of the memo. According to Drudge:
A friend of Green’s at ABC says Green is mortified by the email. “John feels so badly about this email. He is a [...]
How very peaceful of them!
KABUL, Afghanistan – Senior Muslim clerics demanded Thursday that an Afghan man on trial for converting from Islam to Christianity be executed, warning that if the government caves in to Western pressure and frees him, they will incite people to “pull him into pieces.”
In an unusual move, Secretary of State Condoleezza [...]
This story might as well have been a complete and total secret:
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – U.S. college graduates are facing the best job market since 2001, with business, computer, engineering, education and health care grads in highest demand, a report by an employment consulting firm showed on Monday.
“We are approaching full employment and some employers are [...]

Last year, I wrote a sample review for the site Pocket PC Thoughts, and crossed my fingers hoping they would accept me. Pocket PC Thoughts is, quite possibly, the largest Pocket PC-related community site on the internet, and now I’m officially a writer for them as my first review was posted at 11:00am this [...]

Prejudice against smart kids [...]
I know I’m late to the blog with this one, but I have to say I was much more interested in Trey Parker and Matt Stone’s reaction than what “Chef” had to say.
I was not disappointed when they finally started talking:
LOS ANGELES, California (Reuters) — Soul singer Isaac Hayes said Monday he was quitting his [...]
If you grew up in New York City during the 80’s and 90’s, there were two names on ABC’s Eyewitness News that every single person knew. One was Roger Grimsby. The other was Bill Beutel.
Like most families, they were our dinner news team. Eyewitness News was a fixture on our televisions from [...]
The left has a few mantras in their repertoire, and they’re not afraid to use them, repeatedly, to chastise others for behavior they find un-leftlike. When it comes to themselves, however, none of their mantras apply, and you are to automatically take them at their word.
For example, recently Pat Robertson, the left’s favorite whipping [...]

It’s one thing for a small-time blogger like me to sling out nasty invectives like retard and assbag. It’s entirely another for a respected (to some) and established member of the mainstream media to do it. Check out this gem from Jack Cafferty:
You want to laugh out loud? Listen to this. House Republican [...]
