75 Things

2487 — Thu, 24 Jul 2008 14:23:29 +0000

Sorry ladies, "75 Things Every Man Should do before he dies."

Count em up and post your number…

I'm at 34 of the 75. Life is short, get busy!

We are all suckers for lists!

Shame

2487 — Fri, 11 Jul 2008 17:04:43 +0000

Shame on you Phil Gramm. You are only proving that you and your cronies are out of touch and unfit for any sort of leadership position in this country.

Also in the news today:

Oil breaks all time record of $147 a barrel

Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae are in danger of becoming insolvent

Dems not doing much better:

Obama supports the latest FISA bill basically authorizing the telecomm to spy on us with impunity.

Don't tread on me! Our common enemy is quickly becoming our own corrupt government.

Bush & Clinton Families and Nepotism in the US

2487 — Thu, 22 May 2008 15:46:28 +0000

I was talking politics with a coworker a few days ago and said something that didn't really sink in until after I had said it. I was born in June of 1979, which means that for nearly my entire life minus just 6 months there has been a Bush or a Clinton in the White House. Kind of scares me to think our government is run by such a small group of people and essentially members and associates of two different families. I’m excited about the prospect of this not being the case this fall!There are essentially three styles of government:

1. Autocracy – Single self-appointed ruler.
2. Oligarchy – Small elite segment of society rules.
3. Democracy – Majority rule largely directed by the citizens.

Our current system puts us right between an Oligarchy and a Democracy.

Clinton and Obama will debate faith but not science! And where’s McCain?

Wm D — Tue, 08 Apr 2008 15:14:04 +0000

How can the candidates debate faith but not science. According to Shawn Lawrence Otto of ScienceDebate2008.com "… an April 18 debate in Philadelphia, is looking less and less likely. Obama has declined, Clinton has been non-committal, and McCain has been non-responsive."

Shawn Otto goes on to say, "Perhaps among the moral issues discussed should be whether they have a moral obligation to more fully engage on science issues, since the future viability of the planet may hang in the balance, for starters. Is there a larger moral imperative? How about the future economic health of the United States and the prosperity of its families? Science & engineering have driven half our economic growth since WWII, yet but 2010 if trends hold 90% of all scientists and engineers will live in Asia. Then there are the moral questions surrounding the health of our families with stem cell research, genomics, health insurance policy, and medical research. There's biodiversity loss and the health of the oceans and the morality of balancing destruction of species against human needs and expenses, there's population and development and clean energy research, there's food supply and GMO crops and educating children to compete in the new global economy and secur ing competitive jobs. Science issues are moral issues.

Is it time to make our voices heard! DEBATE SCIENCE!

Science Debate 2008

A CALL FOR A PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE ON SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY

Wm D — Sun, 09 Mar 2008 21:19:41 +0000

A concerned citizens initiative now cosponsored by the AAAS, the Council on Competitiveness, the National Academy of Sciences, the National Academy of Engineering, and the Institute of Medicine, and signed by over 135 leading American universities and other organizations.

A CALL FOR A PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE ON SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY (click for more information)

Given the many urgent scientific and technological challenges facing America and the rest of the world, the increasing need for accurate scientific information in political decision making, and the vital role scientific innovation plays in spurring economic growth and competitiveness, we call for a public debate in which the U.S. presidential candidates share their views on the issues of The Environment, Health and Medicine, and Science and Technology Policy.

2007 Sportsman of the Year – Brett Favre

2487 — Wed, 05 Dec 2007 15:40:47 +0000

Whether or not you are a Packer's fan you will enjoy this article. At ten pages long it is one of the best stories on Favre I have ever read.

From the article: "There is no happier place than Green Bay, Wis., on a Sunday evening after the Packers have won. The beer tastes better, the girls are even prettier, and few seem to notice the bite in the air. In a town defined by its team, civic temperament can be quantified on a scoreboard. A few weeks ago, in the moments after the Packers had defeated the Carolina Panthers 31-17 at Lambeau Field, the parking lot was alive with merriment. Kids in number 4 jerseys and GOT BRETT?…"

I will be in Green Bay this weekend to watch them play the Oakland Raiders. This story and honor only makes this amazing year that much better! And as always, GO PACK GO!

The Once in a Lifetime Fan

If you are a Packers fan you will appreciate this. There is a young family that moved from Sydney, Australia just to follow the Packers around the country for a year. It's a great story and well worth a few minutes of checking out the site and especially the youtube videos. They will also be featured on tonight's edition of Inside the NFL on HBO.
