After a random selection aided by Sauce Magazine, Kristan and I discovered Soulard’s Restaurant. It was a bit classier than expected, but the food was excellent from fried spinach to Kristan’s London broil to my creole salmon pasta (creole in more than flavor, salmon with cajon spices is a culinary pidgin). Highly recommended […]

Bringing you the news
November 10, 2004 – 12:00 am
Jim recently engaged in a rant on the sad state of journalism that eloquently expresses why I get my TV news from Comedy Central, and generally rely on BBC RSS feeds for current events.

Can we have some checking and balancing over here
November 5, 2004 – 12:00 am
I (and a few million others) have been pondering recently what to do about the hijacking of the Presidency.
By “hijacking” I don’t mean that the Republicans have stolen anything I refer to the evolution in our nation of that office to a moral leader, which at times just might lead to the election of an […]
Moving on
November 5, 2004 – 12:00 am
Since most have realized that running is not viable?, the blogosphere is becoming rife with suggestions for getting through the next four years. I’m calling for some Presidential containment?, but other reactions are noteworthy.
Many have called on the Democratic party to build infrastructure over the next four years and be better prepared to communicate […]
The Red Scare
November 4, 2004 – 12:00 am
The people of my city were powerless to stop the destruction of their history, and just turned down a chance to finally take fate into our own hands because we were told change is evil. Pecuniae obediunt omnia.
My state, meanwhile, has chosen to prioritize highway construction. And most of my time zone participated […]
Oh, did we forget to mention
November 4, 2004 – 12:00 am
John Stewart shall not want for material the next four years.
The Republican-controlled Congress put off dealing with the debt ceiling before adjourning in October, preferring not to force members to vote on the politically sensitive issue of adding to the national debt before the November elections.
Republicans have proposed that the debt ceiling be raised by […]
Four more years
November 3, 2004 – 12:00 am
I’d previously come up with several reasons to root for Bush today:
This administration deserves to be the one that deals with the results of their policies for the past four years. Ignoring the impact of four more years of these policies, of course…
The innate human morbid curiosity that causes us to watch with nearly […]
Did your vote count
November 3, 2004 – 12:00 am
Conspiracy theories are gaining traction.
Suspicious ballot routing in Ohio
Strange numbers from Palm Beach County and the rest of Florida
Correlations between exit polling discrepancies and use of paperless voting machines are being widely cited.
Correlations between deviation from party registration and voting machines. (N.B. “no conclusions can yet be drawn from this data and analyses.”)
Lest I come […]
Flynn, meet Moore

Why can’t the Flynn effect look more like Moore’s Law?
