PPPer has trouble with his diet…

November 02nd, 2006 | Category: Blog gos

Well all of those of us who work from home know where this poor bugger is coming from, especially those of us who have spent some time living alone w/other batchelors. It is do tempting just do do pizza, pasta and wine/beer while not doing terribly well on the whole eating a balanced. Since I have started living with my betrothed my weight has dropped quite a lot. Getting engaged is pretty good for your health it seems. My beloved says I look much healthier now than we she met me. I have a picture and its scary.

So have a care for this poor sod. We have all been there. Just because PayPerPost is a great deal of fun does not mean it ain’t hard work.

I Started A Joke

November 02nd, 2006 | Category: Politics

that started the whole world crying.

I wrote this late Monday night but held off posting it until now:

I judge it time to enter my fearless prediction on the mid-term US elections next week. If I am right, I shall modestly point to it at every opportunity to demonstrate my masterly comprehension of American politics (predicted Bush win in 2000; Republican gains in 2002; Bush’s reelection and continued Republican victories in 2004).

On the other hand, if I am wrong, then this post will have safely scrolled off the front page by then, and I can arrange another “accident” with the archives to be sure that it never again sees the light of day.

I think that the GOP holds on to both the Senate and House. The latter might be by the proverbial skin of the teeth, but a victory nonetheless. The polls are tightening up (and Republicans traditionally underpoll) and the Democrats are as usual getting too complacent.

In the meantime, of course, the walking dog-doo magnet John Kerry stepped into another pile of it:

In his Monday appearance at Pasadena City College for Democrat gubernatorial candidate Phil Angelides, Kerry delivered several lines, such as Bush had lived in Texas but now “lives in a state of denial.”

Then he said: “You know, education, if you make the most of it, you study hard, you do your homework and you make an effort to be smart, you can do well. If you don’t, you get stuck in Iraq.” There were a few polite titters from the audience.

I’ve met officers, NCOs, and enlisted men from the Canadian, American, British, and German armed forces, and they stack up very favorably against your average Massachusetts senator.

They don’t need me to defend them. But I’ll take Kerry at his word, that it was merely a botched joke (and a lame one at that).

Inexcusable. Comedy is much too serious a business to be left to amateurs. Politicians especially should be wary about engaging in it. Ronald Reagan and JFK could carry it off (the present occupant of the Oval Office is pretty good, too); John Kerry should outsource any future attempts to India, or Andrew Dice Clay, whichever is funnier.

SpeedTV oh yeah

November 02nd, 2006 | Category: Stuff

I tend to get my Automotive News from SpeedTV when I am in the states. I rather enjoy watching the various racing series on the channel and especially appreciate that I can get coverage of British Touring Car Championship when I am at home. Its just so good that there is a channel dedicated to all kinds of automotive racing so you don’t have to depend on the hit and miss networks for your racing fix. I remember when I was younger scouring the TV listings to find a hint of motorsports. This post is sponsored by SpeedTV and that is kinda nice too.

Would London be better?

November 02nd, 2006 | Category: Terrorism

If this man had succeeded in offing Ken Livingston? Considering all the terrorists Ken has supported over the years it would have been a fitting way for him to meet his end. And let’s face it Livingston was meddling in Northern Ireland politics at the time by actively supporting the IRA.

POS that is cheap…

November 02nd, 2006 | Category: Technology

There is a cheap pos solution out on the market than undercuts all its competitors. With a simple easy to use site, you can get this simple solution quickly without any hassle. The site has two seperates guides to the software right on the front page so you don’t have to search for the damn things under support. They obviously genuinely want you to get your POS working ASAP. Anyone making things easier for all us is good in my book. Go have a look.
