There was a moment this evening when I wanted to get down on my hands and knees and beg. I was ready to pay any penalty to get out of our current contract. I was ready to see if I could find any takers on eBay for my mint TAM. I was ready to do anything my wife wanted, for the opportunity to replace my Palm TX with an iPhone. Sure, the iPhone would replace my cell phone and iPod too, but they…
With all the attention focused on the start of primary season, George has had a chance to lay low for a while. It was kind of nice to forget about him for a while. Well, maybe repress is a better word.
Then I read one sentence in an article about his Middle East trip, and years of political angst dropped right back in my lap.
Reality bites Bush’s Mideast peace plan – McClatchy :

I don’t think about my childhood all that often, almost as if my life began in college. (I’ve been thinking about it more lately for some reason.) I was driving past an elementary school a little while back and it brought up a painful memory, which brings us to this post.
Greg was my best friend between eighth and eleventh grade. We did all kinds of things, having our share of fun, and…
This is not a good post. I’m mostly venting a little frustration from this evening (and not all of it from the subject of this entry).

Over the past 20 years, southern sea ice has expanded, in contrast to the Arctic’s decline…
Now that Iowa and New Hampshire have had their say, it seems to me they’ve cancelled each other out. The Democratic front runners are still the co-front runners, Romney got his “silvers,” and the Iowa Republicans made their typical wing-nut choice, who’ll hopefully go away now, with his hard earned footnote to history in hand. (Although it didn’t work out so well last…
Hillary Clinton is not my first choice in the Democratic primaries. I don’t have strong feelings about her like many do, but my preferences lie elsewhere. Still, coming back from a ten point deficit in the polls? In a couple days? That’s crazy talk. My wife still has family in New Hampshire, and if you’re out there reading right now, I’ve gotta ask: what’s the deal?
If you’ve got kids, chances are you know all about different kinds of flooring and their carrying capacity for fluids. My fellow parents know all about carpeting, and it’s uncanny ability to absorb.
As some of you know, Beth had her share of health problems as a baby, and it led to a fair amount of clean up. It was one of the big reasons we pulled out our carpet. Hey, don’t…
