I can’t decide whether I usually like, or usually don’t like Mr. Jones… but today, I like him. I’d like him better if he’d start work every day by introducing a bill to build a wall/fence/moat/minefield/whatever on BOTH borders. At least he calls it like it is (was)… an amnesty bill. Congressman Walter B. Jones …

So I just got done watching “Shooter” (thanks, NetFlix!), advertised to be the new “Bourne Identity”. Great cinematic drama, action packed and interesting from start to finish. I don’t want to spoil anything (yet!), so I’ll just say Marky-Mark (Mark Wahlberg) plays an ex Marine gunnery sergeant slash scout sniper gone survivalist, and pulls it …
There aren’t many people whose prosecutions I’d celebrate, but Mike Nifong is definitely one of them. Not just because he’s such an attention whore, but more because of the way he riled up the racist groups in defense of a liar. Now I want to see apologies from such racists as Louis Farakhan, and the …
I’m still amazed at the effectiveness of the anti-spam security tools in place here. Akismet is the most “proud” of the lot, and rightfully so… “Akismet has caught 2,000 spam for you since you first installed it. You have no spam currently in the queue. Must be your lucky day. :)” The daily numbers are …
Seriously… this guy is pro-American, hard on illegal immigration, and has the recent experience of soundly beating a communist party female candidate. Exactly what we need in 2008. France gets tough on illegal immigration, setting quotas for arrests, expulsions – Europe – BostonHerald.com Sarkozy, who was elected May 6, pledged during his campaign to create …

Why did this criminal get re-elected? Probably for the same reasons that the city of New Orleans is still dysfunctional and broken after nearly two years of recovery operations. Don’t blame FEMA or George W. Bush… blame a culture of laziness and dependency. This culture doesn’t see an idiot like William Jefferson as a criminal, …
I was just reminded of a conversation I listed to on the Jerry Doyle show the other day regarding the ex-President’s wife’s plan to create a forced (pre?)preschool program for four-year-olds. The talking head dope woman Jerry had on the show referred to the good in this program because “longitudinal studies” had shown that kids …
Let me begin by stating that I’m old enough that my fast and aggressive driving days are behind me. In fact, I’ve always been a fairly safe and defensive driver in traffic, only “letting go” when on the open road with few or no others in sight. Today on my way to the commissary, a …
WordPress has added a pile of new features, and as I’ve just discovered, no longer works with a number of plugins I had been using. Part of this was expected – the better plugins are now obsolete, as WordPress has the same functionality built in now. Some will need upgrading, and I’ll get to that …

I had an “anonymous” call registered on my phone today… the sort I normally ignore. I listened to the message before deleting it – it claimed to be from my credit-card issuing bank – and promptly forgot about it. When I got home, I had an email from the same bank. That one I read… …
