About that that evil Komen organization
Of all of the people who are getting their panties in a bunch about Planned Parent getting grants from Komen, I have to wonder how many of them donated to the United Way. Of the many other worthwhile charities under United Way’s umbrella, Planned Parenthood is one of them. Essentially, this is the same situation […]
Charity/Chaz Bono?
September 10, 2011
Liberals call him a “he”. Conservatives call her a “she”. Does this mean moderates have to use “it”?
Want to buy a Glock?

The GOP in Gabrielle Gifford’s district are raffling one off. Oh sure, there’s no symbolism there. They wouldn’t dare try to put forth any ideas such as that. Alas, the written word makes it hard to express sarcasm.
BOHICA at the pump
January 19, 2011
Back in October 2008 when the Democrats were about to win big in the congressional races, the prices of gas was dropping. I had theorized that the two were not unrelated. I find it quite interesting that no sooner the Republicans gain control of the House that the price of gas constantly tended upwards. After […]
A couple lessons from this weekend
July 5, 2010

On Saturday, the kid was diagnosed with a coxsackievirus infection. The doctor said that it was the third case he seen that day and all […]

New Business Model for Airlines
April 15, 2010
I have a radical new business model for an airline. Since the lowest fare is the one that gets the customers, the airline should not charge any fare. Think about it, if you let passengers fly for free(*), you will take over the market. (*) Passengers will be responsible for paying a few nominal fees […]
Product names
January 28, 2010
I think that product names should be vetted by comedians such as Leno or O’Brien. If the corporations do that we would not have product names such as Wii and iPad. Really, what is the iPad, a woman’s hygeine product connected to the internet?
Lobbyists will waste their time at the White House
January 6, 2010
While on campaign trail, the candidate Obama, like his predecessors, made many promises. What made him different was that he used the word change. I would like to point out a promise that he has been keeping. It is his promise of not having a place for lobbyists in his White House. From how the […]
