In my lack of posting anything positive about Kerry (and not 10 minutes ago saying he depresses me), I find this. Among the ideas I like:
Minimum wage. Conservatives have spilled a lot of ink attacking a minimum wage hike. The main gripes: a wage hike will raise unemployment, and will bite into profits and […]

computer science graduates make $49,691 a year, up 4.8 percent
Yay! That means, I could slack off, graduate with mediocre grades and still make, what 40k out of the gate? Right? Right?
Maybe I’m taking the wrong message out of that.
Good news in any case.

Seen those MTV voting commercials? The school one that’s been on lately, ends in “Vote for something.” That’s kind of a weird sentiment. It comes off as the act of voting is more important than knowing what you’re voting for. I realize if you get people to vote, they should take […]

My goodness, I’m disagreeing with Spinsanity! That’s pretty rare for me.
New York Times columnist Paul Krugman has been one of the Bush administration’s harshest critics, especially on economic issues. But in two recent columns on Iraq, the economist has stretched the facts and made arguments that presume to know things that, in reality, he […]

Hiatus is over. There may be some weirdness, though; I’m going to be switching to WordPress.

I won’t be posting for a couple days; until Saturday or Sunday most likely. I’m off to Seattle to see a Mariners game and head over to the Olympic peninsula and the coast, acting like a tourist, though I’ve been to Seattle several times.
Also, I’m thinking of switching to WordPress. I need to […]

If you’re looking for something interesting to do, go read about all the lying Bill O’Reilly’s been doing, as documented by MMFA. All of them are here. It’s really quite impressive. MMFA has shown itself to be pretty trustworthy so far, minus some distortion that Spinsanity noted, which was pretty mild. […]

Sometime today, this blog broke 10,000 visits. So congratulations to whoever was searching for “ku klux klan couer d’alene” which happens to make the same mistake I did in spelling Coeur d’Alene.
