Just a plug to go read an article in Reason magazine. This article is a little math calculation applied to Al Gore's latest whimsy. This guy not only has the personality of a piece of granite, he also seems to have the brains to match.
just as a preview: "Gore explicitly likens his scheme to NASA's Apollo program, but reaching the moon cost only $150 billion (in current dollars) spent over eight years. In other words, getting to the moon cost half of what Gore wants to spend annually to realize his no-carbon energy vision."

normally I wouldnt say anything
...but since Ellie Mae posted her scores, I thought I pretty much have to post mine. I am one serious catch girls... then and now.
Some things from the 30s are better left unchanged. Bring me a martini, would you dear?

Oh my god. Did anyone watch last night's episode of the Colbert Report? If not, drop whatever you are doing. I dont care if your job is related to national security. It cannot be as important. Watch it now.
Anyone that knows me a little knows there is almost nothing I like more than Rush (and no, I dont mean the fat guy with the big mouth). I used to take a week off work when they toured (and when I had a job) and claim it as a religious holiday. Being that is probably the closest I would get to religion, I thought it appropriate. Imagine my total surprise when I turn on Colbert today (TiVo you know) and there they are. Mind you they havent done an American TV show in over 30 years ... hell maybe never. And pretty much the whole show was devoted to them, which pretty much tells me they are fans of Colbert (and vice versa).
It didnt show the audience very much, but I could only expect it to be filled with older geeky guys with a big bald spot and a ponytail.
ok,
</blather>

Google stalking
Google is a wonderful tool. But like anything, it can be abused. I went outside and saw this today.... It looks like someone is looking us up on Google maps. People: please be considerate. I dont want to look at this thing all the time.
Last week it was right behind my truck and I couldnt even get it out of the driveway.

Just a theoretical question...
The mind wonders... Hypothetically... do you worry if someone in the US Department of Justice is reading your blog? Just asking.
...and they really deserve an upgrade. Seriously running IE 6 on Windows? I would think they would be a little more security conscious.
