Today's Political Rambling
They're arguing the Affordable Care Act in front of the Supreme Court. Yesterday, based on the questions some Justices asked, we were told it was likely they'd vote to uphold the thing. Today, based on the questions some Justices asked, we're being told it's likely they'll vote to kill the thing. Tomorrow, Clarence Thomas will […]
Today's Video Link
I have known Scott Shaw! (he spells it with the punctuation mark) for well more than half my life. Among our many points of bonding is a love not just for cartoons and comics but for bizarre cartoons and comics. There are few things we like better than to look at some inexplicable, strange comic […]
My Drinking Problem, Part 1
I've written about this before here but it's been a while and it's time for an update. My drinking problem is not about alcoholic beverages for I have never tasted one. The closest I've come was a swig or two of Nyquil back in my teen years. My drinking problem is what to drink. I've […]

America is Everywhere
Okay, Microsoft Outlook 2007 has now decided that everyone I know lives in America. So even if someone's address in my Contacts list says they live in Barcelona, Spain, Outlook has fixed that so they now live in "Barcelona, Spain, United States of America." I'm running Outlook on three separate PCs which all sync via […]

Country Time Eliminate
I have all my contacts in Microsoft Outlook 2007. Every so often, the program seems to undergo a patriotic surge and it adds "United States of America" to the address of every contact listing. This includes contacts that are not in the U.S. if I have no address specified. For instance, I have about fifty […]
Masterful Charge
Guy-on-the-go Joe Brancatelli writes about great credit card deals for travellers. What I'm looking for is the card that promises that any time you call an airline, you'll be connected within one minute to an actual human being who knows something and can fix problems. This is probably asking too much… […]
