In two previous blog posts I have lambasted the arsemunch Bill Belichick for his classless and cheating ways. Classless is not a crime but cheating is. And it looks like Mr. Belichick remains a scumbag, cheating, pile of festering dung. The AP reports: Patriots coach Bill Belichick is declining comment on a tampering accusation levelled […]
Why do my friends ask me about the current financial meltdown of the US economy? I don’t know but there certainly are a lot of them. I get calls, emails, and other such entreaties for my opinion. First, the quick answer: is it’s the fault of the current administration. That is the failed economic policies […]
I am reminded of a long-term pet peeve by Spencer F Katt’s column in the 22 September 2008 issue of e-week magazine. In writing about technology there is both a Disc and a Disk. They are not interchangeable, and they don’t mean the same thing. Here’s a guide to getting it right. First, a Disc […]
Yeah, this is post 501. I missed the big celebration of 500 🙂 Life goes on. The blog is at 196,000 hits or thereabouts. I’m going to break 200,000 before the year ends. That’s just mind blowing. Most of the visitors are still looking at Led Zeppelin posts and Daniel Radcliffe posts. So if you […]
Oh, how I dislike going to the dentist. I’ve been putting it off for weeks. Finally, at work today, it was too much. I called the dentist’s office and asked when they could see me. “Right now” or on Tuesday. I asked exactly when “right now” was and they meant RIGHT NOW. So, I jumped […]
Yay. Today was a big day in Mobile Phone Land when I got a little pissed with T-Mobile (okay, I got a lot pissed) very recently. Nothing frosts my balls more than people who don’t return calls. I have been a loyal T-Mobile customer since the Jamie Lee Curtis days. Yeah, okay, so maybe she’s […]
I learned a lesson today. Trust nobody. Ever. No matter what. Nobody has your best interests at heart except you. Even the people you think when push comes to shove you can trust, not even them. They’re waiting there with a knife, to plant it in your back. And some people wonder why I want […]
I’d like to welcome a new sponsor to my trio of sites www.darsys.com, www.darsys.net, and www.panthershockey.net. So goodbye to my old sponsor who didn’t renew nor respond to emails, and hello to ZTMC.NET (and .COM) who sell aggregated ads. The nice things about these ads is they are far less intrusive and appear at the […]
I watched Obama’s speech last night and I thought it was one of the better political speeches I have ever heard. I’m sure it caught the other camp off guard. It offered some specifics. It offered generalities. It was well delivered, and it made some very strong points against the other camp without being an […]
(Forwarded to me from Evan From Today’s Shelf Awareness newsletter) The eight-month search is over for a screenwriter to adapt J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Hobbit, and it ends back where it started. According to the Hollywood Reporter, Peter Jackson and Guillermo del Toro decided “that no one is better suited for the task than they are. […]
