Filed in Uncategorized by on June 4, 2007 5 Comments

Looks like the price of being the Worst President Ever is $20,000/picture. A photo-op with the President during a recent visit to NJ cost $5,000 per person. During his heyday in 2000 and 2004 the same photo-op would run you $25,000. Plus the cost of taking these pictures has been greatly increased, since everyone gets […]

Dr. Jack Kevorkian was released from prison today after serving an 8 year sentence.  While I have never taken him up on any of his services (although I have a gift certificate around here somewhere…)  I think that he made us look at ourselves in a new way that colors our end of life rights […]

It is hard to figure out whether or not a radio ad is having an impact on website traffic, but I think I have found some evidence that we are gaining traction.  WordPress gives stats on all sorts of things.  One of the stats is the search terms that people used to find the site.  […]

Dontcha Miss the Old Days…

Filed in Uncategorized by on May 31, 2007 3 Comments

You know what I mean. The old days back when we knew that the Russians were the bad guys. Back when we only had to worry about mutually assured destruction. Where if things went south, they really went south. I was think about that when I heard this story on BBC this morning. It’s just […]
