Everyone claims this is the make or break situation for either party, but I don’t think – unless Palin’s a total retard on the stage – that it will tip much. Unless somehow Palin becomes as beloved as Gandhi, which I don’t see happening any time soon. Biden will put us all to sleep like [...]

Debateable Part Dos

Every day’s a repost (my post from another forum):
I think that Senator McCain leaned too heavily on the word Veteran.
I’m a veteran, and I appreciate his sacrifice for this country. I appreciate his honest concern for me and my fellow veterans, and his experiences. I believe he is genuine when he speaks about veterans and [...]
Debateable

So on we go to the first Presidential debate of the season.
I’ve been analyzing the problems McCain has been having, and I think literally the system is out to sabotage him from winning. Maybe that’s what the Republicans want – they want to forego a horrible Presidency with a candidate and running mate that more [...]
My Red Baron Pizza Bread Dilemma
Posted in Random Thoughts, Work on September 26, 2008 | 1 Comment »
My work life is pretty boring. I pretty much do the same routine every day, mostly to avoid complicating my day any farther when I have to work with China and their crappy coding. Everything that I can turn into a process is turned into a step-by-step checklist. This includes reading my online comics and [...]
Fun on the Afghanistan/Pakistan Border

The Pakistanis have had it. They are shooting at US military assets too close to their border. Their President announced that they will simply not tolerate the US violating their space any longer. Meanwhile, the Taliban is sitting back, thumbing their noses at the impatient US troops who want to destroy them. Could we have [...]
Pakistan rhymes with Afghanistan

I can’t believe Palin said that, even as a joke. Right after her meetings with Karzai and the other leaders. >_<
Karzai warned the present US Administration that accidental civilian deaths and destructive raids by the military in the region (hint, hint – over the border as well) will backfire on our troops in Afghanistan. This [...]
Man, All We Can Talk About Is The Economy

The Fed and Administration’s $700b bail-out is being tightly analyzed and criticized from all angles. Both parties in Congress want more oversight and assurance that they don’t have to do this again next year. Both Presidential candidates are skeptical about the intentions of the plan. A lot of people think that India has the right [...]

I’m going to be a father soon. Due date is in May, and I’m both excited and terrified.
Ahoy Mateys!

It’s Talk Like A Pirate Day. There’s speculation if modern day pirates talk like 17th Century pirates, but rest assured, they are still among us.
Remember how back in March, the Administration and John McCain both said that the mortgage problem wasn’t a crisis? Well, now there’s a plan going to Congress to resolve handling this [...]
