  1. First of all, this is NOT for comments about the State of the Union address.

    Only mindless drivel on other subjects.

    Secondly my participation is going to be spotty and experimental as my primary goal this evening is to build myself a new Operating System.

    Good luck.

    You’re right about the vast wasteland. Well, no TV, never mind cable, here, not that I miss it except for TDS/TCR but I’ve been watching that on line. Some here have never seen Jon or Steven. They were quite amused and surprised.

    Howard Zinn, historian who challenged status quo, dies at 87

    Howard Zinn, the Boston University historian and political activist who was an early opponent of US involvement in Vietnam and a leading faculty critic of BU president John Silber, died of a heart attack today in Santa Monica, Calif, where he was traveling, his family said. He was 87.

    “His writings have changed the consciousness of a generation, and helped open new paths to understanding and its crucial meaning for our lives,” Noam Chomsky, the left-wing activist and MIT professor, once wrote of Dr. Zinn. “When action has been called for, one could always be confident that he would be on the front lines, an example and trustworthy guide.”

    Blessed Be.

    Do you have any women on your staff? I mean i-Pad??? Sheesh. The some of the jokes on the internet today were side splitting.

    Jezebel That Time Of The Month: The Internet’s Best Period-Related iPad Jokes

    Apple’s iPad announcement earlier this afternoon prompted a score of WTFing across the internet, prompting many to ask, “Are there any women on Apple’s marketing team?” Answer: Apparently not. (Period.)

    From Twitter (for what it’s worth, #iTampon is apparently the number three trending topic on the site.):

    tjakabon: “It surfs the web AND stops the bleeding.”

    Gelatobaby: And you can use the giant QWERTY keyboard to get your period on the #iPad!

    CarolBlymire: Is #apple making an iPad for light-flow days? Just wondering…

    Trish1981: iPad? Really? All I can say is, I’m sticking with Always, bitches.

    tremendousnews: So I can say “That chick is on her iPad” and not be called a pig? Thank you Apple.

    melissapierce: iPad has changed “the conversation” from how we use tech in context to how we use tech as Kotex. (who named this thing?)

    TwittsMcGee: I haven’t heard this many period jokes since I was forced to watch The View last month. #iPad

    kathycacace: Okay, just one more. The iPad: protecting your data from embarrassing incidents.

    Johnpapa: “64 gig iPad will forever be known as the heavy flow model.”

    Yeah, It’s that bad. My husband found this hillarious. I reminded him about paybacks.

    “My Son John, I Was a Communist for the FBI” That’s quite a cast….Helen Hayes, Van Heflin, Robert Walker and Dean Jagger (was he ever young?)

    Nice analysis of the 1950’s Red Scare

     Personally I’m going to be sitting in class during the SOTU.

    But if I wasn’t, I would probably be watching old Twilight Zone reruns, or something like that.

  8. No Country for Old Men and then The Watchmen instead. I have no tv and I have movies from Netflix.
