Obama’s Not The President
It’s apparent to me that when Obama becomes President (he’s not the yet, ya know!), he will not be able to move fast enough for many of the Radical Right, Libertarian or Fence-Sitting bloggers and commentors around here.

Twits on Twitter
I wondered to myself why Davie Burris shut down another blog, daveburris.com, and went to a whole new direction. Hey there! daveburris is using Twitter.

Newspapers Are Dead, Long Live Newspapers
4&20 blackbirds pointed me to this Pew Research Center study that shows that the internet has taking over the newspaper as a source for national and international news for Americans. I would agree with 4&20 blackbirds that it was quite a jump there from 2007. However, 4&20 blackbirds writes: . . . they were better […]

Delaware’s Top Stories for 2009
Over at Madville Times (South Dakota), they posted their top ten stories for 2009. It intrigued me, so here are my top stories for 2009. Desk Drawer Veto Not Used — Fat chance that Thurman Adams will not use the power to let legislation he disagrees with stall at this desk. But a boy can […]
