Mike Rowe’s Dirty Job: QVC Salesman for Precious Moments (and the Amazing KatSak)
I was just preparing to enjoy one of my last doses of NFL football for the year and heard the very familar and comforting voice of Mike Rowe selling large trucks. If you aren’t familiar with the fellow, here’s the wiki bio. He also did/does a fun little show called Dirty Jobs. As the United [...]
This Week in the Police State…
First up…the Comitatas Posse is back in town, militarizing the homeland. WASHINGTON — The Senate voted Tuesday to keep a controversial provision to let the military detain terrorism suspects on U.S. soil and hold them indefinitely without trial — prompting White House officials to reissue a veto threat. The measure, part of the massive National [...]
Kansas Governor (one of those “small government Republicans) pays someone to monitor Twitter for bad things about him…picking up from there….(UPDATED: Governor Apologizes…for his staff…)

This is how “they” are taking over (the last 49% they don’t already have)
Gizmodo, the Gadget Guide http://m.gizmodo.com/5546244/how-to-watch-hulu-in-android-in-3-easy-steps Should be “how lawyers and marketing are making a killing by killing innovation and competition.” BTW, I loved how I got three warnings how it wouldnt work in pop-UPS, but my palmtop computer (like the laptops of old) kept acting like “hey, I got this”. And it does. Other flash [...]
What Anonymous Wants (Get: What Anonymous Wants)

Roger Ailes Exposed as the Whiny Baby He Is (oh, and the Nazi Examples)
I mentioned in this post that after the tragedy in Tucson, certain folks put it on themselves to be the real victims. A number of people backed up those claims, and all of these victims work for the same guy, Roger Ailes.

GE/NBC/Comcast Merger Approved, Olbermann Fired…50th anniversary of what speech?
Oh yes, the first Texan in the White House (and just for the official records, this guy was a yankee). Here’s that speech.. There’s some great historical context here. This was the previous election that he mentions in passing. The direction the country would go next was very much up for debate and led to [...]
I like the part at the end, where they just roar at one another.
And yes, I did lol a little to myself.
Hate the liberal media? Hate Fox News? Then stop them
https://secure.eff.org/site/Advocacy?cmd=display&page=UserAction&id=451 You won’t see a lot a corporate media coverage on this one (ACTA) as it a) puts them in the spotlight and b) gives them a TON more power. And don’t let folks confuse this issue with net neutrality, which is a completely different beast. Here’s what this does… Just look at some of [...]
