Judgement Day
Today is the last day for the little buggers. Orkin is coming to take them away. I have to assume they’re going to put them in a nice little box and release them into the wild where they can roam free…
I’m a little worried they’re going to rise up and attack us while we sleep!
Resources on the USA Patriot Act
So over lunch I was reading more articles on the USA PATRIOT Act and realized I didn’t really understand what it was all about except from the dogma thats been thrown around. ACLU says its BAD BAD BAD and the administration says its this wonderful thing that protects us from the bad guys. I’m definitely more inclined to believe the ACLU than I am to believe John Ashcroft but it occurred to me that, rather than blindly believe anyone, it might be worth gathering info on my own. I found some really good information so I figured I’d share. Yes – some of the sources are more left leaning than others but what I liked is they had a LOT of really good references to other information so you can draw your own conclusions.

Hurricane
Kevin just sent me these images. I don’t know their origin or validity but if they’re for real then DAMN..
Three random bits
First – this is my new favorite ad. DAMN… Between this and the Madonna / Missy Elliott ad I’m feelin the urge to shop Gap. Guess advertising does work.
Second – Looking at my site stats it seems someone wound up here on a google search for “Iraqi twinkie”. I don’t even know what to make of that. Just made me chuckle.
Third – Water heater saga continues. Woke up to no hot water this morning. Seems that the pilot light on the brand new thing wouldn’t stay lit so the singing repair man was back first thing in the morning. Seems fine now but the fun never ends..
New Addition
I’d like to announce the arrival of a new addition to the house. A bouncing baby water heater.
(ok.. not baby at all – bad boy is BIG)…
