Pride in the name of love
Someone has let out the ugly, and that someone’s name is John McCain. I hope this doesn’t portend a JFK, MLK, RFK moment, but who knows with the loons on the Republican side.

prisoners and the same standards of clarity and candor must now be
applied to my opponent." Sen. John McCain (R-AZ)(Yes we're incarcerated with this bunch of loons running the country)

I'm watching a co-workers USB fan cool her down in this unseasonably
warm, humid day, and I wish I had one. That's a great use of the unused
USB ports on my work desktop. I doubt that the IT department would like
it though.I'm looking for cool USB devices. I've seen a few: coffee mug warmer,
refrigerator, christmas tree, fake fish tank. I've also seen some crazy
devices out of Japan, most notably a simulated bomb. It doesn't blow up
by acts as a countdown timer. I would like to get these "humping dogs"
as they are hilarious except that they won't be so hilarious the next
day. Have you seen any cool USB devices?http://www.thinkgeek.com/computing/input/9c89/

I’m in a love-hate mode. I’m in a pirating mode. I’m in a take it for me mode. I just need to watch some anime. And to watch some of the ones I want, I have to turn to finding fansubs. You’ll usually find them on the underground.
Now I’m not saying do it, but you got to do what you got to do.
Get me some anime!
Watching the watchers
I wonder who’s watching the debate?
Who’s winning?
Go Obama!

The Programmatic Programmers are offering an iPhone development workshop. I would love to go. I doubt I will. I don’t even write code. That’s so sad.

Q: What is the role of the US in Iraq and Afghanistan?
A: Afghanistan will lead to further security of our economy. It is, somebody was saying this morning, a toxic waste there on Wall Street. Well, it was unfortunate. That manifestation that we saw with that invasion of Georgia shows us some steps backwards that Russia has recently taken away from the race toward a more coordinated and a much more stringent oversight regime government can play a very, very appropriate role in the oversight that has to exercise all options out there on Wall Street. That’s the reform that we’ve got to play an appropriate role in the stringent oversight, making sure that these weapons of mass destruction, that nuclear weapons are not given to those hands of Ahmadinejad, not that he would allow terrorists to be a multi-faceted solution that has shown his foresight, his pragmatism, and his leadership abilities.

Recently, at a dinner party at my mom’s for a friend of a friend, one of the guests asked me about the Republican VP nominee. Ugh. Really. It isn’t polite to bring up politics at the dinner table, but I was game. I said that I can’t understand a word she’s saying, and every time she’s on tv I cringe. It’s more likely that I find it outright embarrassing for her to be so incoherent in front of the whole nation. You could probably get a whole room of monkeys pounding away at typewriters, and they would produce a more coherent mishmash of nouns, verbs, and adjectives to form a competent thought.
How are we to take seriously this VP candidate when you know that the man who put her on the ticket is so insincere?
