Why I Am (not) Voting for Barack Obama

Saturday, October 18th, 2008

I just ran across the “Why I am now voting for Barack Obama” post on MY Vast Right Wing Conspiracy (a WordPress powered blog BTW) and almost fell out of my chair laughing.

Here are a few of my favorite quotes from the post:

  • Any dollar, no matter how it’s wasted, is better spent by the government.  His most holy Barack will raise taxes on EVERYONE and we won’t have to worry about all that greed in society! He will make sure we have only what is needed for us and we won’t have to pay for any of it!
  • Taxes are way too high. With his most holy Barack, taxes will initially go up and everyone will go broke. Without money to tax, taxes will come down! It’s so easy to figure this stuff out!
  • As the dregs of society die off, there won’t be any more uninsured!
  • We need to ban ALL drilling. No oil means no gas. No gas means no cars. No cars means no dependence on foreign oil. Won’t that be nice? No more wars for oil!

Packing For Disney World

Sunday, December 9th, 2007

A 63-year-old Pennsylvania woman has given a new meaning to “packing for Disney World”.

Disney World security personnel reportedly discovered a … .32-caliber Beretta handgun had been loaded with seven live rounds in the magazine, but the chamber was empty.   Also found in (her) purse was a pair of scissors and a locked blade knife.

Maybe she was paranoid that the characters were out to get her or that the “magic” of Disney was going to add her to the previous three Disney World deaths over the past week and a half.

All I can say is that I’m glad that she wasn’t there when I was a few months ago.  And I’m glad that there’s obviously no “profiling” going on at Disney World.

Winter Weather Update

Thursday, December 6th, 2007

During yesterday’s storm, a total of 3.4 inches of snowfall was measured at the National Weather Service (NWS) in Indianapolis.  So that means they were on target with their final 2-4″ prediction.  The low was off though, as it was 12 degrees when I woke up this morning and freakin’ freezin’.  (The coffee is about to go on.)

The forecast has changed yet again for tonight and tomorrow, with more snow and possibly some rain and freezing rain on the way.  Right now we have some “freezing fog” and have mostly ice left over from yesterday, so hopefully when it warms up tomorrow the ice will melt away.

No such luck on a decent “play snow”, but that usually doesn’t occur until January around here anyway.

Lets Go Hunting with Bob Knight

Friday, November 30th, 2007

Via the Indy Star

Two people said Texas Tech basketball coach Bob Knight or his hunting companion hit them with birdshot on two occasions last month.

Maybe it’s just me, but I think that it would be good advice to not go hunting with Coach Knight or Dick Cheney.  Boy wouldn’t those two be a pair?
