Que sera, sera, whatever will be, will be, but first I need more coffee.

Headlines that will piss you off

Why it’s almost time to tell Republicans to go **expletive deleted** themselves. I’m really getting tired of their **expletive deleted**. I’m really close to wishing that they and their supporters will be miserable for the next eight years. There have been a few things the Obama administration is doing that haven’t pleased me, but I’m willing to give them time to sort things out.

Edging towards a depression (a very scary and depressing graph).

I know there are decent Republicans out there. I know there are honest conservatives out there. You guys need to take your party back. You need to get rid of these ass clowns and douche nozzles who are trying score political brownie points at the expense of the country. If you don’t think Boehner and Graham and Coburn fall into that category, I pity you.

We are going to know how bad a shape the Bush/Cheney/Gramm cabal left the country in in a few months. The Obama administration is still doing damage assessment. Democrats had the last two years to put the slow down the destruction, but they didn’t have the guts to do anything. I hope the price of winning the last election was worth and that it’s not too late. We are heading for a depression. We just don’t know how bad it’s going to be yet. We have the leadership and the people to help us get through it, but it remains to be seen if they can convince the Republicans to stop their obstructionist crap.

Update

Found another anger inducing headline.

What the centrists have wrought

Twitter

Perhaps, the social networking tool I use the most is Twitter. I try to describe it as a form of microblogging, but that’s not a good description. To most people it seems pointless at first. At least to me it did, but it grew on me. Well, I think I finally hit on a description that people can grasp and it will fit in the 140 character limit of Twitter:

Twitter is blogging for those with ADD.

You can see what it’s all about and if you want to try it out you can follow me. My handle is clm122704: http://twitter.com/clm122704.

I follow a lot of friends and acquaintances. I also follow news, blogs, and some famous people. Though they don’t necessarily follow you back. And that’s OK. Among the people I follow are Neil Gaiman, John Hodgman, Cesar Milan I also follow The Cassini mission.You can even follow Stephen Fry. I did briefly but unfollowed him. I even followed Barack Obama when he was running.

Contrary to popular belief, Twitter is not a bunch of birdwatchers though you can follow the RSPB if you want.
