Obama v. McCain in Terms of Technology
PC Magazine has compiled a list of top technology issues and where the candidates stand on them. Among the list is Net Neutrality, H1B visas and intellectual property protection. As technology advances we are going to need a President that can understand and adjust to the changing landscape. I think this is another place where […]
1,000 Years in Iraq

But now, word comes from a report leaked to The Independent that there is a deal to keep US troops in Iraq indefinitely, irrespective of what the results of the election in November. The terms of the impending deal, details of which have […]

Brian Selander will be filling in for Rick Jensen tomorrow and will be hosting a debate with the three candidates (Reed – D, Savage – D and Brady – R) for insurance commissioner from 2:00 to 3:30 on WDEL. It will be good to have Selander back on the air, albeit for a short stint.
Fun With Google
Did you know that if you google “polar bear expert” Jason is the 4th hit. Jason fares much better than McDowell does on Google. In fact, If you search for “McDowell energy expert” Jason is the top hit as a polar bear expert. I love that. Even Google is on to you Harris!

Is America Ready to Vote for an Indian-American?
John McCain is interviewing potential Veeps this weekend and one of the possibilities is Bobby Jindal. Jindal is a 2nd generation Indian-American.

Sorry for the Inconvenience
Oh man! I have been in hot water with the crew here all week. I did an upgrade to WordPress that went well, except for the fact that it was ridiculously slow whenever we wanted to post. And when I say slow, I mean go make a pot of coffee and have a cup while […]
