Government Fiscal Policy Well well it turns out that when John Boehner isn't crying like a little girl he can deliver a speech. Tonight he smoked Obama like a fine cigar. I tried to flip around Obama's debt limit rant but ended up watching like a gawker at a hospital fire. Any dolt with a fifth graders … Continue reading Debt Dolts Diddle and Drone!

Top Ten Invalid Annoyances
The way I roll. I have been in the rehab/old-folks home for eight days: long enough to adjust to the routine. It's amazing how quickly we get on with a new normal. This doesn't mean I am comfortable or thrilled with my circumstances. I have a list of invalid annoyances. Let's do this from least … Continue reading Top Ten Invalid Annoyances
The UN Space Treaty is Holding Us Back!
Apollo Earthrise 2011 marks the 42’nd anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon landing. 42 idiot infested years have passed since that glorious day and nothing that has happened since comes within a nautical league of matching it. My vile boomer generation has downplayed the significance of space exploration for decades. I remember getting a shrill … Continue reading The UN Space Treaty is Holding Us Back!
The Kindle is just like the KKK
Oh Mohammed in a brothel how much more of this idiocy can we endure? A certain brain-damaged official, (Thomas Perez), in the US Department of Justice apparently thinks allowing Universities to experiment with delivering textbooks via the Kindle violates the civil rights of the blind. This so is mind-boggling stupid that I thought it was … Continue reading The Kindle is just like the KKK
G20 fails to end G20
Last weekend I passed through Toronto. The city was bracing for the over priced and utterly pointless G20 dog and pony show. The G20 circus did not disappoint. On cue the usual crew of recreational anarchists left their parents basements long enough to engage the police, set cars on fire and smash store windows. The … Continue reading G20 fails to end G20
I did not have sex with that Oil Spill!
I would like to thank BP for accidently creating a teachable moment for our political class. Prior to the gulf cluster-fuck the most ethical congress in history did not know that fluid dynamics is one of the hardest of the hard sciences. But, after two months of heroic attempts to contain the spill with blame games, … Continue reading I did not have sex with that Oil Spill!
The Real Problem with Enterprise Software
Only the gifted analytic minds of IT management and know it all programmers have the intelligence work ethic and superb taste required to select enterprise software. Speaking as an ITite, (one who works in IT), I can report that we are so gifted, so far-seeing, so utterly and totally awesome in our views that only … Continue reading The Real Problem with Enterprise Software
Plug the Damn Hole
I see Obama’s awesome intellect has been working overtime. I guess this is plan B after plan A was scuttled by a raging homophobe. Forgive my “hickness” but if a homophobe could actually plug the damn hole I would gladly overlook some queer queasiness.
Everybody Abandon Facebook Day
Yesterday was the first ever Everybody Draw Mohammed Day. My favorite Everybody Draw Mohammed cartoon is shown below. Da Glory-ass Koran For the troglodytes among us Everybody Draw Mohammed Day was a sarcastic reaction to years of bullying, death threats and fatwas issued against cartoonists for the horrible crime of drawing caricatures of Mohammed. The … Continue reading Everybody Abandon Facebook Day
Why I Still Use my Ten Year Old Garmin GPS
Last year I joined the swelling ranks of Smartphone users. My device belongs to the BlackBerry or BB clan. There are many things I like about the BB but my favorite feature is simply that my employer picks up the tab. Every month I get a corporate guilt report listing my BB charges and every month … Continue reading Why I Still Use my Ten Year Old Garmin GPS
