I have created an offshoot site using Typepad (first time I did something really bad, no clue what), which specifies what it is. The name is pretty basic, American Flag, as is the site. Just a clearing house. I will probably create a nice banner for it this weekend.

Some serious nuts out and about yesterday. You can get the whole show here I wonder if the nut with the sign realizes it is Red? Chaining yourself to a gas pump? Brilliant. Bet they feel real good today. Burning the flag? Way to show your patriotism. Love her tinfoil hat (lady in pink).

From MSNBC: Aid groups warned on Friday it might be too soon for the U.S. military to scale back its emergency operations for Asia’s tsunami victims, while an informal cease-fire between Indonesian troops and rebels appeared to have collapsed, threatening to derail relief efforts.

A few highlights from President (again!) George W Bush’s speech: At this second gathering, our duties are defined not by the words I use, but by the history we have seen together.

When the cost is adjusted for inflation, Mr. Clinton’s second-term celebration exceeds Mr. Bush’s by about 25 percent. According to the […]

Amazing how much energy sitting in traffic like that can take out of you. Didn’t take long to crash last night. Eyes are a mess. All that light. The lights from cars in my rear view mirror, side mirror, and from traffic coming towards me. All the tail lights. All the flashing lights from school […]

In case folks didn’t know, we had a little snow even in NC from the Triangle and east. I left work at 5:30pm. I got home at 8:55pm. That’s right. And it didn’t even take me as long as some people. There were folks on the radio who said they left at 1pm, and, as […]

Looks like Dr. Rice has been confirmed by the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, and the appointment will now be sent to the entire Senate, where she will most certainly be confirmed as our next Secretary of State, followed by her election as President in November, 2008. She was confirmed 16-2, with the two voting against […]

I’m talking about normal problems, not the biggies, of course. Work issues, spousal issues, getting dog poo on your new shoes. Uh uh. Nope. Doesn’t hold a candle to this: A 63-year-old man who hasn’t slept for more than two decades has been told there is nothing wrong with him by doctors. Ukrainian Fyodor Nesterchuk […]
