They put up a good fight but lost. So I guess they are not going to go 16-0. BUT, I am getting a vision…Here it comes…They are going to go 15-1. I am 94% sure. If the Redsox can win the World Series, then maybe the Jets can win the…
A nice electoral college calculator. Using this, I started with the 2000 election. Then I split Colorado’s vote. Then I changed Pennsylvania from a Democrat win to a Republican win. Ohio went to Bush last time. It doesn’t really matter. Whoever wins Florida wins. It’s all about Florida. Check the…
So Comcast came over to set up cable TV and Internet Access, but unfortunately, they screwed up the internet access. They can’t even fix it until Sunday. Come on people! 13 days to the election. I sort of feel like a Boston Red Sox fan. You can make your own…
Moved. Muscles hurt. Everything still in boxes or strewn throughout the house. No internet access. No phones. No Comcast. No DirecTV. No garbage. No mail. Other than that, I love the new house. Oh, speaking of DirecTV. They came and decided that the roof was too high. They didn’t want…
We are the proud new owners of our new house in Hercules. It cost an arm and a leg but it is ours. I feel good about moving. Really excited. Lots to do. We are moving tomorrow. Right now, I am all optimism. Let’s see how I feel a year…

Remember that guy Barry Sobel, the comedian who came on stage and said, I don’t have time for all my jokes, but I can give you the lunchlines. Then he rattled off a whole bunch of joke punchlines. Man, that was funny. Layer?! I don’t even know her! Ok, in…
Someone at work said, “It’s just work, it’s not personal.” I said, “I spend more time with you than with my kids.” We aren’t robots. Our daily lives are personal experiences, and don’t let “the man” make you think that you should stop experiencing life on a personal level just…
I received my voter guide and was reading it on the train. 90% of the measures were for tax increases to pay for this program or that. And let me tell you that, not including elections, there were THIRTY-TWO separate measures that I have to vote on. Now, I have…
Have you heard about the restaurant on the moon? – Good food, but no atmosphere. I’m currently reading People’s History of the United States, by Howard Zinn. It’s hard not to be depressed when you read about all of the oppression 95% of the population suffers so that the rich…
Somedays, you eat the bear. Somedays, the bear eats you. What will today be? It’s early, but it doesn’t look good so far. I can smell my own fear. Speaking of smell, check this out.
This is my favorite quote from the debates last night, from President George W. Bush: You know, I think about Missy Johnson. She’s a fantastic lady I met in Charlotte, North Carolina. She and her son Bryan, they came to see me. Her husband PJ got killed. He’d been in…
