Romney on Cars
Mitt Romney writes about the auto industry bailout. A great article written by someone with actual experience. Comparing this to Obama's leadership on this issue (so far) is a little disconcerting.

Global Hoax
The World Has Never Seen Such Freezing Heat
A surreal scientific blunder last week raised a huge question mark about the temperature records that underpin the worldwide alarm over global warming....Enough already. Al Gore has made millions off this silliness and it's making moviegoing unbearable (See THIS, THIS, and THAT). Not to mention making the American people so nutty as to think these are cool.

Boxee on AppleTV
Tired of waiting for Apple to decide if the AppleTV is a hobby or not? Check out Boxee. The hack is easily installed via a usb drive. Within minutes you can play any video or audio on your AppleTV. A nifty way to watch those HD movies and TV shows which have found their way to your hard drive. Boxee also gives you access to Hulu, CBS, Last.FM, and several other Internet video/audio sources. The software is still in Alpha, but you can get an invite through the forums. Hopefully Apple is watching and getting ready to blow us away with some serious enhancements of their own in the near future.
2012
It's never too early to start the commentary. With the election so far behind us, I'm sure my co-blogger is anxious to get started on the next round...

Veterans Day
Apparently President Elect Obama has made it kewl for Lefties to honor Veterans Day.
Or maybe the graphic just took 9 years to create?
From /. : The decoration is a marked departure for the company, which has come under fire from veterans' groups for ignoring American holidays such as Veterans Day and Memorial Day since Google's inception in 1999."
Gee, I wonder what changed?

Damnit Jim, I'm a patriot not a journalist!
Silly Republicans always crying about the liberal bias of the media. NONSENSE I say!
Can you imagine the ridicule and vitriol from the left if this came from Fox News? After watching this "journalist" tear down the Country and the Bush administration for the last 8 years, his sudden concern for the Nation is so pathetic ... it's hilarious.

It's all good
Thanks for all the great birthday wishes (BOTH of them!). I spent the early evening going to the movies. Saw The Changeling with Angelina Jolie. She sat to my right and ate most of the popcorn. I can't imagine that everything in this "true story" actually happened. It's unbelievably gut wrenching, more so than the McCain campaign or an Obama sermon but all in all, a riveting movie. After the movie me and my family, sans Jolie, had Chinese food followed up with a viewing of the Ducks kicking the crap out of the Kings.
For the first time in my voting life I watched not a single second of election coverage! I overdosed on political geekism months ago and it wore me out. I missed the dopey McCain concession speech and the vapid acceptance speech of President Obama. I slept well and woke up to the same crazy world, once again sans Jolie. On November 5th as I watched the stock market have it's biggest post election day drop, I congratulated the Obama faithful and consoled the McCainiacs. Ignoring for a second day any political coverage, my attitude only seemed to get better.
It's November 6 and a friend sent me this video:
I was alarmed at first as here was the first piece of political "news" I've looked at since election day. I watched however and laughed. It was then I realized the beauty of an Obama Presidency; The Humor. No more angry liberals whining about stolen elections or crying over tortured terrorists. Even as I write this the stock market continues it's post election freefall, obviously a jubuliant and hopefull attitude from the market. Yet there is humor... From CNN a story about how not to expect too much from President Obama. Honestly, he' not God right? In the coming months we will probably be told that Change and Hope are actually the Obama's dogs... and I will laugh.
Unlike what I've been used to for the last eight years from Democrats, I consider President Obama to be my president. As a part of the loyal opposition I wish no ill will on him or his family. I do not hate him nor do I pray that his V.P. die of a heart attack. I've seen how ugly and unfunny angry liberalism can be and I hope to have seen the last of it... for at least 4 years anyhow. I have huge doubts about his policies, but in general I am counting on the economy simply being cyclical. Now that he's more than community organizer and rabble-rouser I am sure he will take the Nation's security more seriously and be ready to act accordingly. No matter what though, I look forward to the funny.
President Obama: Saving the world, one phone call at a time.

Happy Birthday Dan!
Dan gets second place in the Hooter's Birthday Boy Dance Contest...
But don't we all agree Holly is the REAL winner here?

I love it...
As he bids farewell at the G8 summit in Japan:
"Goodbye from the world's biggest polluter" -- President George W. Bush
If he'd only shown his spine more throughout the last eight years it may have prevented the current wimpification of the country. Considering how Lord Obama is set to bend over for the rest of the world and beg them to forgive us for being American, this comment makes me smile.

Work Blows
Day 8: Still stuck at work with no end in sight.
Last Monday the local cable provider installed their zippy fast fiber optic internet service, replacing a couple of slow and expensive T1's. The only problem so far is it doesn't work. Since then, I have slept about 30 minutes and am ready to strangle the "top-level" engineers camped out in my datacenter. They are here right now, sitting 3 feet from me with their caffeine gum and coke constantly muttering "I just don't get it... it doesn't make sense".
I want to go home.
