This Will Come Back to Haunt Rudy

This sounds like something Adolph Hitler, Joseph Stalin, and Mao-tse Tung said while they were consolidating power and eliminating all opposition to their rule.

More on the Evil Fox News

Perhaps we need this propaganda agent around and on the airwaves so we can more easily identify corrupt politicians and corporations that are out to destroy the American way of life all so they can further enrich themselves and grab more power. The evil is showing us their evil supporters and sponsors so that they can be destroyed.

Serious Hard Questions

I find it difficult to believe that members of Bush administrations, including perhaps the president, vice-president, and others individuals in the highest circles of government, could have known the 911 attacks were going to occur, and even more incredibly, made direct and indirect assistance to ensure the success of the attacks. But some of the other conclusions made in this story and others linked in it may have a residue of truth depending on how it is interpreted. But perhaps it is wise to adhere to the sayings, "nothing is impossible" or "never say never", in reacting to these stories.

One Meter Increase in Sea Level Within Three Decades

I look for an increase in sea level of at least six inches by 2020 and one foot by 2035. It very well may be more and in a sooner period of time.

Corporations Looking to Censor, Control Internet

This greedy usurption of power by half-wit corporations like AT&T is totally inane and hopefully will be crushed by litigation that will protect First Amendment rights for the citizenry.

Recommendations for Enjoying Las Vegas

Las Vegas: the epitome of fun, excitement, and escape. Everyone should try to make it there for a vacation for a few to several days at least once a year or so. There are so many entertainment options and much to see in Southern Nevada. These are two links to bookmark for future reference when considering what to take in on your visit.

View on Fading Allure of New Years Day Bowl Games

Admittably, the college football product that has been showcased on New Years Day for decades has lost most of its luster. Interest was much keener as late as a decade ago, but the ineptitude of the NCAA in failing to create a championship playoff system with sixteen teams including all ten conference/league champions and six at-large schools plays heavy in the general loss of interest by fans and the public. The BCS championship game played Monday night 7 January was not warmly received and accepted whatsoever and television ratings reflected that. The NHL is poised to seize a noteworthy place on a day where television viewing of sports is often the best and only option for many.
