Michelle Malkin has pulled together a bunch of Hurricane Katrina news items to reveal that the media’s coverage has been a little too positive about how well New Orleans has fared. With levees breached and waters rising, I am going to out on a limb here and say that New Orleans is in serious [...]
Oil is over $70 a barrel now and this continues to point to several things. The most important of which is that we need to be drilling in the ANWR. Apparently 30% of all US drilled oil comes from the Gulf of Mexico so certainly a little more diversification is in order here. [...]
Just for kicks (pun), I decided I would setup a sub-domain site just for Grayson’s Soccer Team pictures. I’ll take the pictures and stick them on that site. Included on that site will be full-size versions that the other parents can download to have something printed (if the picture is good enough). [...]
I have now added commenting to this site as well. The nice thing is that as owner, operator, and all-around king of the site, I reserve the right to edit, manipulate, delete, or otherwise vaporize any comments I don’t like. This site is not yet another cyber free speech zone. This is [...]
I was reading over Chuck Ziegenfuss’s blog today and read what I think is his best post. In it, he quotes from a recent email and answers the questions posed. But of particular interest to me was this section concerning the attitude of Iraqi people in general and why if there are plenty [...]
I wish I could point you to the source of the PHP-based commenting system I started with but after downloading about 4 or 5 of them, I can’t even figure out where I started. But whatever I got was terribly broken. I ripped the whole thing apart and used bits and pieces and [...]
Thankfully, the NCAA is now allowing FSU to use the Seminole name. In what can only be described as a sudden burst of logic and reason they realized that sometimes the tribes in question are actually in favor of the school using their name.
According to one executive committee member, the NCAA’s recently amended definition, [...]
Personally, I don’t know whether Lance Armstrong had any performance enhancing drugs in his system in 1999. I think it’s pretty proven that for these last few tours, there is no way he did. But regardless, the only thing that can be proved by some French magazine testing 1999 urine samples is that [...]
I couldn’t help but think about this passengers on the Air France flight who are joining a class action law suit as I have read about the other plane crashes that have recently taken so many lives. And in light of those tragedies, I am furious about that law suit. Those passengers are [...]
On the way out to Arizona this week, I suddenly felt behind the curve. It seems like everywhere I look now there are people with PDA-type phones (either Palm or PPC-based). It used to be that only the diehard geeks had stuff like that now. On the plane yesterday I saw some [...]
