Clearing the Browser Tabs – Da Radio Guy Saturday Edition
One of the neat thing about being a blogger is that you have plenty of opportunities to praise the successes of your other blogger friends. My friend Pete, the blogger better known as Da Tech Guy and not quite as well-known as Silent Bob to Stacy McCain’s Jay, has earned himself his very own radio [...]
I’m Asking for a Small Tip Jar Miracle, But You Can Deliver It.
I’ve never asked for anything like this before, but I know the internet is capable of quite a lot, and I have some pretty darned amazing readers and friends here so here goes. My faithful Ford broke down yesterday on the way home from work. The hope at the time was that repairing it would [...]
Clearing the Browser Tabs – Broken Down Friday Edition
This has been a rough week for regular blogging. I’m afraid today’s going to be another light day as I’ll be dealing with getting my car fixed. It broke down on my way home from work last night and I’m not sure how much it’s going to cost, which is worrisome. It might not cost [...]

It’s Sarah’s World. We’re Just Living In It.
Whether you agree with Sarah Palin’s politics or not (and I admit that I’m lukewarm on her as a politician), you can not deny that she is a political and cultural force. For the past two years, she has waged a mostly victorious battle with a sitting President using little more than a Facebook page, [...]
Not So Fast Nancy, Says the Congressional Black Caucus. We Want to Help Wreck This Baby!
Game on! Nancy Pelosi may have thought she dodged a bullet when she negotiated an end to what was shaping up as a nasty battle between Steny Hoyer and James Clyburn over who would get to sweep up what’s left of the Democratic Party once Nancy’s done with it. She was wrong. The Congressional Black [...]
