You think I got snow? What we got here was mild, compared to what Maryland got for snow.
Head on over to R.S. McCain’s Blog and watch the videos. That is if you can bear to listen to Stacy sing. 😉 Seriously? He sings very good for a guy who smokes like a freight train.
Yeah and hit his tip jar too, and when you’re done, hit mine too.
I would like to get something for the folks for Christmas this year. Even if it something, uh, cheap.
I did install this spiffy new plug in, and if you donate, you get your name on the sidebar of the blog; that why people can know how cool your are and stuff. If it is a huge donation, you may even get a personal phone call and possibly a gift. 🙂
Some of the protestors invoked Ron Paul’s non-interventionist approach in explaining their foreign policy stances. “At heart, I’m increasingly a Ron Paul guy on foreign policy. We can’t be the world’s policeman… Iraq and Afghanistan could be too much for us to handle. The people there have to stand up. It’s their country,” said John Tidwell of Bristol, Virginia.
As the tea party movement takes steps to translate their policy aspirations into political outcomes, conservatives should watch out for a new wave of Buchanan-esque isolationism………. support for the spreading of democracy in the world and even for free trade may wane as Tea Partiers either become more active in the GOP or start their own party.
If you run WordPress, you should upgrade. Lots of bug fixes and nice little additions to the greatest blog software on the planet.
I want to make you mine, all the time… oh wait. Hello. I’m here on behalf of the entire WordPress development team and community to announce the immediate availability of WordPress version 2.9 “Carmen” named in honor of magical jazz vocalist Carmen McRae (whom we’ve added to our Last.fm WP release station). You can upgrade easily from your Dashboard by going to Tools > Upgrade, or you can download from WordPress.org.
Matt Mullenweg has got to be the luckiest kid on the planet. I call him a kid, because he is half my age. 😛 Of course, WordPress is much more than Matt. WordPress is made up by some of the most crazy people smartest people on the planet.
As much as I’d like to, I shall refrain from the usual gutter sniping of the area in which Matt lives. (Hint: Nancy Pelosi’s Area….) His politics is of no matter to me; the man is at the center of all things cool. Besides, he’s from Texas, he can’t be that bad…(or can he?)
In case you don’t get the funny opening line of the above quoted text, here is the video that Matt is referring to:
Which is the first AND LAST time, you will ever see a video by Toni Basil on this blog. *shudder*
Some useless factoid information…. Mickey was a cover of this song here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pAhuwfaU4vs
That’s ” Hey Kitty” by an 1970’s English band “Racey”
Personally, I’d like to see Matt Dancing in a cheerleader outfit to mickey myself. Well, maybe not. 😉 😀 😛 😆
That is because it happened at about 6:00 in the morning, local twitter time in California. (I THINK! — if not please correct me…) That would have been 9:00 a.m. EST, I was still asleep, so, it didn’t really affect me.
Hackers hijacked the Web site of micro-blogging community Twitter.com early Friday, briefly redirecting users to a Web page for a group calling itself the “Iranian Cyber Army.”
The attackers apparently were able to redirect Twitter users by stealing the credentials needed to administer the domain name system (DNS) records for Twitter.com. DNS servers act as a kind of phone book for Internet traffic, translating human-friendly Web site names like “Twitter.com” into numeric Internet addresses that are easier for computers to handle”Twitter’s DNS records were temporarily compromised but have now been fixed,” the company said in a brief statement on its Web site. “We are looking into the underlying cause and will update with more information soon.”
No, I am not going to blame President Obama. Sorry, I will leave that to Sean Hannity. If anyone, I blame Iran.
Someone needs to get those Iranian hackers a better watch. Had they done this at say, oh, 12:00 on the east coast, it would have been internet bedlam! 😯
Leave it to Robert Stacy McCain to totally gross me out for the day. His obvious elbow to the, ahem, groin aside. Of which, I agree. But did he have to get all, um, plain about it? Yeeesh….
