I posted this last year but I thought I’d do it a bit earlier this year in case folks are in the market for some cool Christmas albums. Enjoy! I have an iTunes playlist of over 250 Christmas/holiday songs and some of my favorites are what I consider to be “out of the ordinary” — songs you won’t likely hear […]

My wife’s photomosaic of Barack Obama (which appeared in Time magazine) was recently used in a TED talk by Sylvain Zimmer. Check it out. Tres cool. I’m just sayin’…

As I’ve written about before at Daily Kos and elsewhere (HERE and HERE, e.g.), GM has had remarkable success in 2010 and their impending initial public offering (IPO) Thursday is cause for some rejoicing. This morning we learn that GM’s share price, originally forecasted to be $26-29, will be $32-33, an increase of of about 14%. This will increase the […]

This was VERY popular last year so I’m reposting it with very few changes. I simply don’t have time because, well, we’re just GOTVing our little hearts out here in Ann Arbor today (and tomorrow and Tuesday…) I have added a handful of new ones before I head out the door. Enjoy. I love Halloween but I’m not much of […]

Tonight, President Obama holds one of the last of his Vote 2010 campaign rallies. It takes place on the Midway Plaisance near his home on the south side of Chicago. It starts at 8:00 p.m. eastern. Watch it live here! I’m just sayin’…

I have a friend over at Daily Kos. He’s a great writer and frequent contributor to Kos. He’s handicapped and gay and that gives him an interesting perspective on the world. He’s also lacking funds that will allow him to attend the Netroots Nation 2010 conference in July. I’ll be attending and a guy like him should be there, too. […]

Neither my wife or I (or probably Waffle Guy himself) ever dreamed that Waffle Guy mania would sweep the internets. But, happily, it seems to be. Want proof? Here’s proof: That’s a Photoshopped version of my wife’s picture with Waffle Guy’s face replaced with Tim Urban, the guy that got the boot from American Idol last night. It’s from the […]

If only all high schools could be this awesome. When the odious Westboro Baptist Church (WBC) ghouls announced they were going to picket Gunn High School in Palo Alto, California because it is too tolerant of gay students, the students, teachers, administrators and parents responded by drowning out their hate with powerful statements of love, acceptance and embracing of diversity. […]

It’s working out just fine for me, thank you very much. The American economy added 162,000 jobs in March, offering some hope that the labor market, after shedding millions of jobs during the recession, has reached a turning point… The pace of job growth in March was the best in three years. Suck it, Palin. I’m just sayin’…

You know you want one. Well, I know I do anyway. I’m just sayin’…

Holy Awesome Linkage, Batman! Eclectablog got linked on The MaddowBlog yesterday! My entry about the unfortunate/fortunate juxtaposition of Tim Walberg and Brian Rooney signing a Kill the Law pledge with a story about a young man in their district with cancer and no insurance got linked: Click the image for a larger version Their post asks the question “How’d this […]
