Goodbye Biden, Hello Hillary…

September 9, 2008

If there is ANY way that David Axelrod can dump Biden and grab Hillary, he would do it in a heartbeat. The loyalty there is zero and the upside thus far has been nill. With ballots going to press, and an election less than 60 days away however, it would be a true Hail Mary [...]

1908 to 2008: What a Long Strange Trip It’s Been!

September 9, 2008

There were two historic milestones in 1908. The world saw the Ford Model-T for the very first time, and the Chicago Cubs won the World Series for the very last time. Even my beloved Wrigley Field was not built until six years later, 1914. Could this be the year? Could this be the end of the [...]

More Shrinking Returns…

September 8, 2008

On a personal note, I have a problem that is both frustrating and engaging at the same time. Those that know me are aware of the considerable girth I have unwisely accumulated in the past few years.  Much of it is still in place but a considerable portion is melting away.
The problem you ask?  None [...]

Lance: “He’s baaaaack” Lance Armstrong’s comeback tour

September 8, 2008

Once more into the Breach. I can still recall the time Michael Jordan chose to lace up his Nike’s one more time. It did not end well. An ignominious footnote to a stellar career, and a small but forgettable blemish upon one our planet’s finest athletes.
Today Lance Armstrong announced that he too will again stand up [...]

Run, Sarah, Run…

September 4, 2008

It is not hyperbole to suggest that there is a new star in the Republican Party tonight. Sarah Palin’s acceptance speech at the Republican National Convention was an absolute home run by any measure.
Last night I was flying home on a coast-to-coast Delta flight. This particular bird has satellite video feeds built into every headrest (in coach [...]

Tech Support & Terrorists: Our Global Village

August 1, 2008

I thought I’d heard every possible story from tech support people - until today. A great new CMS tool, Remix, has come out with an update. I visited their site today seeking a solution and was told that tech support was unavailable. Seems their town of Surat India is under TERRORIST ATTACK. That’s a first.
Here is [...]

OK, I finally get Twitter…

July 8, 2008

In a previous post I pondered the proposition of Twitter. To Twitt or Not to Twitt. Open minded but skeptical, I said that I would try to see what all the fuss was about. I was unexpectedly surprised with what I discovered.
More than just a self-aggrandizing podium for ego-centric technorati, though there is plenty of [...]

We are Not Men…We are Plantiffs

July 1, 2008

Don’t you love the old rock groups that recapture the public eye?  Well, not always. The Strolling Bones can still kick it out, but a few others need to pack it up and move along.
Remember Devo? Yes, that Devo. As in “Whip It” and a host of other widely forgotten tunes? Well they are back. [...]

Wesley Clark…A Man of No Shame

July 1, 2008

I respect Wesley Clark’s service to our country. Seriously injured in Vietnam, he recovered and has spent his career in the military. Respecting Clark the man however is quite another matter. I can respect him no more. His most recent act of utter arrogance was made on national television on Sunday. Given an opportunity to walk [...]
