I don't know why I keep thinking Congress is going to come up with a good healthcare bill. Probably because the press seems unwilling to do anything but spin whatever HMO stimulus package they come up with.

If having to buy car insurance was expensive, just wait till they force us… Read full post »

Once again I have to endure the cruel mockery of fate after People Magazine passed me over for worlds sexiest man in favor of Johnny Depp. The injustice of it all leaves me bitter but not defeated. I will endure. And after all, whatever doesn't kill you makes you stronger, or… Read full post »

A health panel is now telling women not to get mamograms until 50.

I have to agree with this. Kids should not be singing about politicians. Especialy bait and switch plants who say one thing and do the opposite: The dollar's only about 4% of money, 96% is…

I noticed when you load this page it seems to put every video in memory, now taking up 143 megabytes. It was over 200 mb until I deleted some videos. That sounds like a technical issue. When I load my Youtube, it displays the links to about 80 videos with much… Read full post »

Ok, so the "new" bill passed in the Senate. What does that mean? The Baucus HMO stimulus package? Or a revised version.

I don't see anything about a public option or any mention of it in the press, as if a single hand wiped the word off the chalkboard. We are… Read full post »

It looks like Harry Reid finally threw the public option out there in the Healthcare debate.

I'll have to go to the store and get some of those lightbulbs for my computer desk that imitate natural light, so I don't go into a serious  post Halloween funk. It's the middle of the day and everything looks drab, like my brain is going, Oh my god, everything is… Read full post »

Here's a song from The Best of Michael Nyman  

And a new one of mine:

I really want to give the President a chance, but I would like to see some sign of a backbone. I see none.

Bill Clinton was hated. A shameless sex addict that would fuck a penguin if it wore a nice hat, but it's hard to fault his public policies.… Read full post »

Anyone see any new ones last night? There are a ton out. Don't these idiots plan release dates better? If everyone releases new movies on the same fucking week they all loose out competing with each other. Stagger them. Weeks of the same movies, then they all go for… Read full post »

They'd send a limosine anyway. - Joe Strummer.

How come people like this never get sick? Using your kid for a publicity stunt. Why are they giving this self serving douchebag more coverage? I hope he gets arrested and fined. What did they spend, $30,000 on a rescue operation for a… Read full post »

What are we in now 140, of the 200 countries on this planet? Didn't we spend like a trillion dollars on 15,000 nuclear weapons? Forget thousands, if we had 100 warheads would anyone fuck with us? Would any conflict around the world actually threaten the security of this country?
