Death by iPhone?
Admittedly, I find Maureen Dowd as useless as Christine O’Donnell. Her column today, “Are Cells the New Cigarettes”, begs the question, Is Dowd the new David Broder? I’ll skip all of Dowd’s references to bad science, but the one item she stumbles upon I found quite interesting. As San Francisco was debating whether or not […]
The Delaware Poker Beat #1: Two Suggestions to Make Delaware Gaming Even Better!

I’m back to blogging a little bit I guess. I’ve got my Obama REVEAL theory and my little podcast with Donviti. I’ve got a call out to Tom Kovach, maybe he’ll call me back – maybe not. Whatever. But the thing I’ve got most of all…the thing that matters…is that I’ve got this clear sense […]

Parasite: Your Definition May Differ
A Kansas man who displayed a sign on a semi-truck accusing Democrats of being the “party of parasites” has received more than $1M in farm subsidies.
Breaking: Elliot Jacobson Out at the IC (Updated)
Elliot Jacobson is out as Insurance Commissioner Karen Weldin Stewart’s Chief of Staff. He will apparently remain as a “special adviser” for a little while.
