More on Liberalism and the Mac

Monday, November 24th, 2003

I also found this very short UK article called Are Apple Users Lefties? which further also works along the lines of my point. On a side note, I found a macrumors site with a political forum. It’s amazing how left-winged the commments were. Very few conservatives, especially well-spoken ones seemed to be [...]

Liberalism and the Mac

Monday, November 24th, 2003

After plugging my theory about liberalism and the Mac in my earlier post, I guess the idea isn’t so unique afterall, A Stray Thought: Are all Mac users left-wing Liberals?. The author has about the most eclectic musical tastes I know of. He likes Jon Gibson, Carman, and Prince. I personally like [...]

Left Wing Computers and Cars

Monday, November 24th, 2003

Gag — I hate to even put his link Dean for America: Home on here. It just lends credibility to crap to even reference the site. In reviewing the article on Apache (Suitwatch) that Brandon sent me, two things struck me. First, it reminded me once again how many Mac people are [...]

Latest Tongue Tied

Monday, November 24th, 2003

I regularly check the latest “Tongue Tied” article on the Fox News site… at least until I get too depressed about it all. Lately, I have been willing to read it and in this week’s FOXNews.com - Views - Tongue Tied - Racism, Race Relations & Campus Life article I find the pub owner [...]

The Brickworks

Monday, November 24th, 2003

When this first image from The Brickworks appeared on Luminous Landscape site I realized almost immediately that this was probably my new favorite image from Mr. Reichmann. Looking through his latest article, the other photographs from the same location don’t do much for me, but the first one really speaks to me. Despite [...]

X2 Release

Sunday, November 23rd, 2003

Well, have to admit, I am excited that on Tuesday the X2: X-MEN UNITED DVD is coming out. I will be headed to WalMart to get their new release price… probably in the $14.xx range. The web-site for the movie has a nice little video clip from the opening sequence.

Gun Ban Stuff

Thursday, November 20th, 2003

FOXNews.com - Views - Candidates Confused on Gun Ban is a fairly good article on gun ban stuff. I think though that the author falls short of driving the point home completely. Still, it provides another glimpse into how politicians latch onto cute little phrases or themes to try to cleverly convince the [...]

Aaliyah

Thursday, November 20th, 2003

Having just watched “Romeo Must Die” again last week, this article about MSN Entertainment - News - Aaliyah’s Pilot Used Cocaine? caught my eye.

Commodore on a Phone

Tuesday, November 18th, 2003

Well, proving once again that the Commodore 64 is dead and also that the technology of today is so far beyond what used to exist, the site Open Source software for Epoc / Symbian OS offers Frodo for Nokia 9210 and S60 (N7650, N3650, …) phones. So basically you can run a commodore 64 [...]

Zell Miller’s “Lynching” Comments

Tuesday, November 18th, 2003

Now that several folks have retired, my latest favorite Senator (also about to retire), Zell Miller, is once again making the news for speaking his mind and telling things like they really are — Senator uses word ‘lynching,’ draws outcry.
