Sweet, Terrible Holiday Irony...

 Every time I hear about gooney things happening during the holidays, I always think, boy - that's the strangest thing I've ever seen.

Call me trumped:

Radio Factor Going Away - Interesting...

 I was just listening to Bill O'Reilly's "Radio Factor" last week as he was giving a very good argument about the whole Walmart Stampede situation.  I just read that the Radio Factor will be gone in less than 6 months.

That's too bad, but I suppose taking something like that out on top is better than setting a course for the ground.

I look forward to seeing if perhaps Glenn Beck will have a full show showcased on our local FM-talker here in St. Louis.

Is DARK KNIGHT The Blu-Ray Requirement Movie?

 We've all been waiting for "the movie" that's going to require us to buy a Blu-Ray player and I had thought that IRON MAN would have been it.  The detail, the special effects, the completely engaging story and outstanding review (via the 2GuysTalking Podcast, right here) made me think that would be "the one."  Of course, with the holidays arriving right around the corner, the prices would surely fall as they always do so I held off.  After having watched "BATMAN BEGINS" on HD-DVD recently with my Mom who'd never seen it, it's clear - this newer incarnation of BATMAN is thee vehicle to take advantage of when talking about high definition movies.

So I ask YOU - is THE DARK KNIGHT, one of the only solid comic book movies ever to be considered in the Academy Award running this year, going to be the movie that makes you get out and take advantage of the great deals to get Blu-Ray?  My finger is on the trigger and I'm waiting to hear what YOU think!

Lunch at Doe's...

Hello,

This is just a little email that a friend at work sent me which I thought explained perfectly the "flawless" plan Obama has for the American working class and not-so working class. Enjoy!

Subject: Lunch at Doe's

Yesterday on my way to lunch at Doe's, I passed one of the homeless guys in that area, with a sign that read "Vote Obama, I need the money."

Once in the Doe's my waiter had on an "Obama 08" tee shirt.

When the bill came, I decided not to tip the waiter and explained to him while he had given me exceptional service, that his tee shirt made me feel he obviously believes in Senator Obama's plan to redistribute the wealth. I told him I was going to redistribute his tip to someone that I deemed more in need--the homeless guy outside. He stood there in disbelief and angrily stormed away.

I went outside, gave the homeless guy $3 and told him to thank the waiter inside, as I had decided he could use the money more. The homeless guy looked at me in disbelief but seemed grateful.

As I got in my truck, I realized this rather unscientific redistribution experiment had left the homeless guy quite happy for the money he did not earn, but the waiter was pretty angry that I gave away the money he did earn.

Well , I guess this redistribution of wealth is going to take a while to catch on, with those doing the work.

Michael Vick being sued by inmate for $63 billion...

I couldn't stop laughing when I read this:

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,293268,00.html

The best part:

Quote:
Riches alleges that Vick stole two white mixed pit bull dogs from his home in Holiday, Fla., and used them for dogfighting operations in Richmond, Va. The complaint goes on to allege that Vick sold the dogs on eBay and “used the proceeds to purchase missiles from the Iran government.”

Fear of loss!!

It would seem that the "The source for all knowledge & power in the Universe " has gone silent.
Have we been bad? Is the " Source " not happy with us? Why is there no more knowledge being passed on to us?
If someone can explain this, please do.
