Quote of the Day [10.18.08]
“It is well that war is so terrible — we should grow too fond of it.”

“It is well that war is so terrible — we should grow too fond of it.”
Robert E. Lee
They concluded the presidential debates last night, but not all candidates were invited. In fact, only the Democratic and Republican nominees were allowed. (Or at least that was my impression as I didn’t watch any of the debates.) There are others running for the Presidency, Dr. Chuck Baldwin, for one.
Dr. Chuck Baldwin is the Constitution Party’s nominee. I have no idea who he is or what they stand for, but it can’t be good when you leave the Republican party because George W Bush wasn’t right-wing enough. Sounds to me like they’re way Right on issues, a very scary place to be. It’s thin air out there, so thin, as to make you incoherent. I wonder if his policies are? Or are they very coherent, but scary, frightening?
Someone click this link and tell me.
Disclaimer: I’m just going through the other candidates’ websites to provide you, the reader, information. I don’t endorse any of them (except Obama). It’s to help you, the reader, decide on whom you will choose. I’m just wondering, “How the fuck are you still undecided after eight years?”
Apple asks, "Which MacBook are you?"
http://www.apple.com/mac/whichmacbook/TheSeed will probably answer, "none of the above."I'm the old school, last gen, aluminum MacBook Pro. Can I be the next
gen PowerBook user?Taking a look at that page, the MacBook Air is pretty sorry looking, so
last year's model. When will it get the new cosmetics to make it sleek
and sexy like its brethren?
"I'm astounded that this issue is being trotted out again. Based on
what I saw in 2004 and 2006, it's a scare tactic."David Iglesias, unduly fired US attorney about the newly opened "voter
fraud" investigations
They concluded the presidential debates Wednesday, but not all candidates were invited. In fact, only the Democratic and Republican nominees were allowed. (Or at least that was my impression as I didn’t watch any of the debates.) There are others running for the Presidency, Bob Barr, for one.
I have no clue about this dude. From reading his Wikipedia entry, the item that stands out most is that he was one of the congressional leaders in the impeachment of Bill Clinton. I say, “Get a fucking life, you cocksucking twat.” Barr is running under the Libertarian Party flag. I would think that libertarians would value personal freedom in the form of receiving a BJ once in awhile. He must’ve only come to this conclusion recently. How can you be the Presidential nominee of the party Party and be against BJs?
I’m all psyched to play my imported PSP game, Macross Ace Frontier, but I don’t have a PSP. So I stop by Best Buy.
So very, very close to purchasing one, but decided against it. I had the box in hand comparing which one I should buy. Madden ’09? Gods of War? Plain black for $30 less? Ratchet & Clank? Why?
In the end, like Robert Deniro in Heat, I walked. Thirty seconds. Gone.
Turns out it was smart decision. Today was the quiet release of an updated PSP: the PSP 3000. You can get it in that Ratchet & Clank bundle. I’ll just wait for the non-bundled one next month. Meanwhile, I’m brushing up on my kanji.
“All the animals come out at night – whores, skunk pussies, buggers, queens, fairies, dopers, junkies, sick, venal. Someday a real rain will come and wash all this scum off the streets.”
Travis Bickle (Robert Deniro), “Taxi Driver”
They concluded the presidential debates last night, but not all candidates were invited. In fact, only the Democratic and Republican nominees were allowed. (Or at least that was my impression as I didn’t watch any of the debates.) There are others running for the Presidency, Ralph Nader, for one.
He has run in the last couple of presidential elections. In the 2000 elections, some of the more liberal voters cast their votes for Nader rather than Gore. They believed that Al Gore wasn’t liberal enough coming from a centrist, Democratic administration, and that he would kowtow to the whims of whomever is pulling the strings in the country. I can’t believe it. I want to say, “Thanks, you cocksucking twats.” You’re the reason for the eight years of ineffectiveness and stupidity that has become of the United States. If I wasn’t angrier at the dumb Republican voters, you’d surely get plenty of my wrath.
But Nader is still running this year. Let’s hope no one votes for him.
