Terri Schiavo died
Thursday, March 31st, 2005Terri Schiavo died (well this is an educated guess since I saw on a website that lists the local sheriff’s office calls and a whole bunch of cars were assigned to the area) .
If anything good comes of this perhaps it is that many people are now more aware of living wills. I set [...]

Thursday, March 24th, 20057 O’Clock News/Silent Night (1:59)
P. Simon, 1966
This is the early evening edition of the news. ( well the news is on 24 hours now, not that it need be)
The recent fight in the House of Representatives was over the open housing section of the Civil Rights Bill.
Brought traditional enemies together but left the defenders [...]
Parsley, Sage… et al
Thursday, March 24th, 2005Waxing nostalgic and not remembering the lyrics I looked for a site for the Funkel Brothers (Simon and Gar). Now I know my friend Daragh’s father has these albums ( at least I think he does for the man is the only true music connoisseur I know) but I cannot find them, much less [...]
ALA no more
Sunday, March 20th, 2005I don’t belong to the American Library Association any longer. I think it has become a political tool of the left and its impact on libraries is negligible. The ALA bills itself as an organization that represents libraries and librarians yet it spends more time and money on partisan politics and nonsense about [...]
Not guilty…
Thursday, March 17th, 2005So Baretta (Robert Blake) has been pronounced not guilty of the murder of his wife. I’m sure he will join O.J. Simpson in their never ending quest to find the real killers.
In related news there have been 5 murders within 50 miles of my home in the last 3 days (2 days perhaps). [...]
Jammies
Thursday, March 10th, 2005If I showed up to court, even if I was not the defendant, in pajamas and slippers I would most certainly be jailed.
Michael (freak) Jackson showed up in his Dr. Denton’s today. Read all about it from the Herald here.
This may be a ploy for some sort of insanity defense, but was [...]
Sad
Friday, March 4th, 2005Keo Young killed two people when running from the police but faces nothing more serious than a charge of leaving the scene of an accident. The full article is available here from the St. Petersburg Times.
Of course I have a little more to say about these murders, truly that is what they were. [...]
I’m a geek
Wednesday, March 2nd, 2005I’m a computer killer
Wednesday, March 2nd, 2005In the last two days I have killed two computers. Well they were Windows boxes so perhaps I should not call them computers.
My main box …the one I used every day was really old. It was running a PII with a GB of ram and 3 HDD cobbled together from other old machines. [...]
