Last night my lovely wife and I visited the Sunday Supper Club to hear Harris Miller (who is seeking the Democratic nomination to run against George Allen this fall for U.S. Senate). As many of you know Harris Miller will have to face off against James Webb (former Secretary of the Navy during the Reagan […]
Erci and I attended the Judy Feder fundraiser over at Bruce and Beth Roemmelt‘s lovely home on Bull Run Mountain last night. We very much wanted to hear what Judy had to say about her campaign to become the U.S. Congress representative from Virginia’s 10th District. This was the first time we’ve heard her speak, […]
I used up about 20 seconds of my allotted 15 minutes of fame by getting on today’s “Net Neutrality” episode of the Kojo Nnamdi radio talk show. Kojo’s show was talking about the Net Neutrality movement, and I tried (unsuccessfully, I think) to point out that what we all call Net Neutrality is really an […]

President Bush was there also, and he took part in a funny skit with impersonator Steve Bridges. That skit was covered on every major network news channel. What those same networks did not cover […]

A friend and co-worker of mine, and his wife, designed these really cool and poignant bumper stickers, and they are selling them in person and online (paypal needs JavaScript and Cookies). Unpimp Congress
John Gruber has an excellent and very sarcastic article poking a little fun at the recent hype about the possibility that someday there may in fact be a virus for Mac OSX. The fact is well known and common sense, but why is there repeated story after repeated story about new Mac viruses (there are […]
I am so happy that Pete Ashdown will be running against Utah’s Senator Orrin Hatch, the arrogant sycophant of big media industry who sponsored the DMCA legistlation as a bill. The fact that he backed DMCA is alone reason enough to wish Senator Hatch an early retirement, but his views on almost everything else warrant […]
Erci is resting up now, she has a seriously pulled groin. She and her dance instructor heard a loud pop last night, and then she was in so much pain should could hardly move and she could not put weight on her right leg anymore. She called me to come get her, and on my […]
