Windpower Story Goes National
This morning, national MSM outlets started to talk about yesterdays windpower deal. CNN had it on their blog. Reuters had a story on it. And now one of my favorite haunts, Slashdot has a post on it. Delaware is finally starting to get some good press out of the windfarm, even if some of the […]
Windpower Deal Winners
Yesterday, Jason and I, along with 3 other bloggers attended that Newark press conference for Bluewater Wind. There are definitely winners in this deal. You and I are winners. Our rates will rise marginally, but we might not notice it by then, because the energy bills will be even further out of control. John Carney […]
Windpower Political Theatre on Wednesday
We are at a crossroads again. The legislature is still dragging its feet on giving Russ Larson permission to approve the Bluewater Wind deal. We need to get this done. On Wednesday, at 6:30AM, I am planning to be down at legislative hall to plant 150 pinwheels to represent the 150 wind turbines that have […]
George Carlin Dead at 71
George Carlin was one of those comedians that reached multiple generations, for about 40 years everyone who liked smart comedy, knew (and probably loved) George Carlin. Carlin died of an apparent heart attack. I may have to rent Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure this weekend.
Mall Question
So if black students in the 60’s were able to sit at a lunch counter and be refused service, what is the legal difference between that and 16 year olds going to the mall and just sitting there? If it is trespassing (being young and in the mall on a Friday night), why wasn’t it […]
Are You Going to the Blue-Gold Game?
Tomorrow is the annual Blue-Gold game. I highlighted this game last weekend, but I wanted to get another plug in today. This is a great event that benefits a worthwhile cause. I don’t care if you are liberal or conservative, consider spending some time at UD tomorrow starting at 4PM to have a fun time […]
Because I Can: Thank You Mrs. Geek
On this date, 15 years ago, I married Mrs. Geek. We have seen each other through better and worse, richer and poorer, sickness and health. She and I are a great team, if I do say so myself. I am truly a lucky man. Thank you Mrs. Geek and Happy Anniversary. We now return to […]
Breaking: Christiana Mall to Ban African Americans on Weekends
Christiana Mall has had enough of African Americans taking over their mall. Amid complaints that their more affluent customers “don’t feel comfortable” on the weekends with all these blacks running around, sitting in the food court and congregating around urban themed stores, the mall has decided to take action. Effective next month, the mall will […]
Time to Call Governor Minner
Pick up your phone and call the Governor and ask her to sign the Eminent Domain Law sitting on her desk. Word is that the Guv is thinking about vetoing this bill knowing that the legislature wouldn’t override. The law puts limits on the ability of municipalities to seize property under eminent domain by defining […]
Suggestions for Kids Looking for Something To Do
As you may have heard, the Christiana Mall is banning unaccompanied minors on Fridays and Saturdays. At first, I was annoyed by this move. But now I see it as a chance to impart wisdom, so here goes. If you are a teenager that has been displaced from your favorite hangout, here are some suggestions […]
Democrats for McCain is a Farce
McCain has been touting his Democrats for McCain for the past week. Talking Points Memo effectively debunks the list of “Prominent Democrats” included. Some of the “Democrats” and “Independents” on the list already have often supported Republicans in the past, suggesting that there’s little if any meaning to their support for McCain over Obama. And […]
Congratulations Newlyweds
I would like to propose a toast. June 16th will be the wedding anniversary for Californians that have been waiting a long time to get married. These Californians have been riding in the back of the bus for a long time and today they had the opportunity to express their love for each other, share […]
The New Line of Bull
I was watching MSNBC for a little while this evening and I saw an interview with Heidi Harris and Amy Goodman. My Spidey sense started tingling when Harris said that women vote Democratic because they vote with their heart, not their head. If I said that, my wife would stab me in the neck. To […]
