What to do?

I don't like Facebook and Twitter is too limiting. Maybe have to write blogs again.

Smart Cars

Cars are getting smarter. Now they foresee them talking to each other. I wonder if they realize what a slippery slope that may be? I want you to think about it, in fact obsess about it. This may give you some sense of what I mean.

Car 1 "Hey dude."
Car 2 "Hey man."

Car 1 "How you doing."
Car 2 "Not so good, the old guy is driving today."

Car 1 "Bummer."
Car 2 "He drives me nuts, he sat through a green light before he realized he could gonand then took so long giving me gas that the light changed to red again."

Car 1 "What did you do?"
Car 2 "Oh, I pretended I had indigestion and started to jerk forward then stop, over and over. It was funny, the other cars freaked and blew their horns, screamed at him, gave him the finger."

Car 1 "Way cool, I gotta try that."
Car 2 "Yeah I busted a belt laughing until."
Car 1 "Until...?
Car 2 "Until he crapped his pants...now I stink."

I'm just sayin things might not go like they should. Now I hafta go home and change.

NFL Jacket

After writing my last post I decided to open yesterdays (junk) mail. I got an offer from Sports Illustrated for a subscription that would include an NFL jacket to the team of my choice. I noticed the cover price is $256 and they would sell it to me for just $20. Frankly would like more then just a cover.

As to team of my choice? That's a hard one. Should it be the San Francisco 49s (that I have followed for years) or the Carolina Panthers (because I live in NC). Both have had such fantastic seasons these recent years. Maybe I'll pass on this one.

Posting to my Blog

I am obviously not posting as often as I used to, like many others that have had blogs. Part of the problem is having to be at my computer to write a new blog. I think of blogs I would like to write but it's dangerous to text a blog while driving. Hell I find it hard to enter a phone number while driving so seldom do, I just pretend I have and talk to a dead phone.

I recently bought an iPad so that may enable me to write blogs from bed and when watching a boring TV show. I can then write a boring blog. Also maybe link to my twitter account to announce to an uncaring world that I have written something new. I will at least be in the company of great personalities like Lady GaGa (whom I really do admire for her showmanship).

New Grandson


I have a new grandson, born early this morning. All the weight of new responsibilities has hit me. The need to provide shelter and care...need to get a job!!!! Yikes. Wait, I have already been there and done that. Never mind. Maybe his father will feel all this instead...hahahahahahaha.

4 Triilion Debt Reduction - Reprise

I commented that I liked the idea in an earlier post. After further thought I would like the idea if, after reducing the deficit, congress enacted a balanced budget requirement to at least slow down their spending.

Who's Who in Washington

Here is a good website if you want to know who is who in nearly any capacity in D.C.

DMV Not Responsible

I was renewing one of our vehicle licenses and chose to use the NC DMV website...which they encourage. They, however, had a disclaimer that once you got through the lawyer legalize said "Under no circumstance (will)...the North Carolina Division of Motor Vehicles be liable for damages of any kind occurring from the use of this website or any information, goods, or services obtained on this website."

Nice.

4 Triilion Debt Reduction

The president's commission to reduce the federal deficit has come out with their recommendations. I think it is excellent. I don't like it, liberals don't like it and soon conservatives will condemn it. It has something for everyone to hate so it must be good.
