Thursday, January 21, 2010. It Ain’t Over ‘Til It’s Over. Okay boys and girls, it's time to slow down and take a deep breath. And while you're at it, a healthy dose of reality would be good, too. The pundits and bloggers are going bonkers over Scott Brown's victory in Massachusetts. I'll admit to being glad he won for the simple reason that we'll have one less Democrat in Washington once he's sworn in. Lose their majorities after the next election. Over the next few days you can expect them to become...

Thursday, October 22, 2009. Ain’t No Fanatic Like a Religious Fanatic. People can always find an excuse for killing each other. It’s human nature. But I find it doubly disturbing when someone feels wanton murder is somehow an act of righteousness. Faleh Hassan Almaleki and Yasser Said. Stand accused of attacking their daughters. The fact that as of this writing, both are still on the run pretty much cinches their guilt. An honor killing. That's how the mother. Owens says their father was offering the gi...

Saturday, August 28, 2010. As some of you already know, I’m currently unemployed and hunting a new job. This has actually proven to be. Work than having a job. It’s the first time I’ve been out of work for longer than a week or two, and it’s frustrating. The whole process of applying for unemployment, wallpapering the town with job applications and stressing over bills is frustrating to say the least. For me, it’s uncharted territory. This was when I was reminded that:. I am, after all, a heart patient.

Monday, October 18, 2010. In modern-day America one of the things most of us take for granted is the ability to punch 9-1-1 on any phone and instantly call for help during an emergency. Be it a burglar, a heart attack or a fire, help can be on the way in short order. How much work and study must one accomplish before being allowed to run into a burning house to drag your unconscious form to safety? A Day at the Academy…. D getting suited up for the recertification exercises. It gets even more interesting...

Tuesday, June 29, 2010. A Nation at the Crossroads. There was a time when America was a nation that, for the most part at least, respected its own laws. Those days seem to be fading. In more recent times laws seem to be open to interpretation by whoever happens to be in power at the time. The rapidly heating debate over illegal immigration is the most obvious example of how our laws are misinterpreted and even ignored outright by those in power. The federal government is not enforcing immigration law to ...

Sunday, November 22, 2009. Why Computer Programmers Would Make Good Legislators. No clue why this occurred to me, except that I stopped working on a programming project (my hobby) to read the news, which these days is almost all political. I read yet again about the sheer size (2000 pages) and cost (who knows? Imagine if a programmer behaved in such a way. You write a block of code to access a certain file, but in the process you create a bug in another part of the program (a common occurrence). What...

Wednesday, April 27, 2011. Images From Memphis Flood. My new job has me in Memphis, TN every other day. I was there Monday and today (Wednesday) and shot a few pics of the nasty weather and its aftermath. This was a super cell that hit about 12:30 pm last Monday. I was parked outside the Coca Cola plant waiting to deliver. The folks ushered me inside to the storm shelter when the tornado sirens went off. Power line repair en route to my reload. Flooding along I-40 and I-55 in Arkansas. Links to this post.
