Sunday, March 30th, 2008

INDECISION ’08

Friday, March 28th, 2008

I’m out of town today getting ready to meet with my accountant and vet out some tax issues.  I really need to just have one job and be done with it.  Either that or maybe the government should stop taking so much of my money, either way I’m out today, but I wanted to leave […]

ARE SPIN-OFFS EVER AS GOOD AS THE ORIGINALS?

Wednesday, March 26th, 2008

Whenever someone asks me about my personal politics I tell them the best way to describe me is a socially-progressive capitalist pig.  I don’t care what people do as long as they do it to themselves and don’t cost me money in the process.  So with that attitude, the Clinton’s didn’t bother me the first […]

THIS IS INTERESTING
