Craigslist, Law Enforcement and Prostitution

2009-05-13T19:15:00.002-04:00

If it is a violation of the law, the go out and bust them for solicitation, but if you are to lazy to do that, the this is a first amendment issue to you get them in the act. Craigslist caved because they are a basically a non-profit. If this was MSN or Yahoo, CL would tell em all to go pack sand, and if I am right, CL, with the E-Bay money will go start to make some cash and tell them just that. Until then, Craig is gonna “monitor” the new “Adult” services section with his “employee’s”. LOL

Windows Live Writer

Well, this is kinda cool. I bought myself a new laptop last weekend and I am loving it so far. It is vista, so the new mail program des not support Hotmail natively and suggested Live Mail.; Live writer came with it and here I am, typing on a blog I hardly ever use, in a bar that has wireless and getting toasty on a Friday night! :) BTW, Vista is not that bad... Ack, I said it. LOL

BTW, the new avatars on 360 are kinda weird. That one looks me, but why do I want to look like me on line.... :)

A key to win

2008-03-21T06:08:00.000-04:00

It occurred to me tonight, on the day after the start of the war the key for Obama victory is to point out who STARTED the war. Never in the history has a president, with the blessing of congress, STARTED a war.

"Five years ago, George W. Bush went to congress and asked to START a war. Behind him were "Richard Bruce "Dick" Cheney", "Donald Henry Rumsfeld", "Paul Dundes Wolfowitz", and "Karl Christian Rove". In that congress were 2 people who are major players on the national political stage today; "Hillary Diane Rodham Clinton" and "John Sidney McCain III"! These people, without the consent of the American people or a formal Declaration of War, decided to START a war with the government of Iraq, who was in at that time, in compliance with the terms of the cease-fire of April 6, 1991."

That is the key. put it on them.

New toys

I have been messing around with some of the new things that are parts of my 2 favorite electronic devices, my Zune and my Xbox 360. As you can see, the both have the little "Web 2.0" things called tags. What's up with web 2.0 anyway? Some of it is cool, like Blogs and Wiki's, but much of it is silly, like Twitter? I mean who really cares what you are doing at "this second" in two lines or less? And why would i want it on my cell phone? *shrug* Too old school I guess. :) But 2.0 does do one thing cool, who ever thought you game system could blog for you.

Free and Easy…..

2007-10-23T23:06:00.000-04:00

Crosby, Still and Nash said it that way in 1969… Free and Easy! It makes you want to go back… Free and Easy… I guess it is something about old music, it takes you to places. That one may before my time, but then again it has always been me. When I was in HS I always said I was a man out of time… 20 Years to late!

My father’s music and interests were mine to be had. WWII, 60’s music, politics, and my views on race are all my Dad’s… Kind of weird I guess, but true. I have refined a few, but he is a big influence. He doesn’t know it I don’t think, but he taught me it is OK to cry as a man, if it matters. He taught me 2 kinds of people in the world to be predudiced against, "assholes and idiots" and you have to prove to me you are one of those. He also said that there are 2 kinds of music, good and bad (i.e. rap sucks, but have you heard “Gangsters Paradise”? On the other hand, My Sharona was #1 for 6 weeks, but it is pop crap…).

So what does this mean for all of you that are reading this? I am not sure yet… I think that this a is a blog of discovery… A place to learn about me… I can tell you that I will lay it all out some times. A few poignant moments here and there. Just enough to get you talking I hope.

Just remember, it is just my thoughts and I am not going to change the world… Yet…
