So, Bill Has a Temper, Big Deal

The news programs are buzzing, Fox can hardly stand it, CNN can't shut up about it. Yes ladies and gentlemen Bill Clinton has a temper and some smarmy little news guy from Fox News (a network not known for fair play or even solid journalism) made him lose it. Slightly.

I watched the interview. I didn't think it was that big of a deal. Parameters had been set before hand as is normal and then the news guy goes off script and hits ole Bill with the Osama bin Laden question.

First if I were Clinton's press secretary I'd be upset that the weasel went off script. Second I thought Bill handled it pretty well all things considered. It is about time that someone stood up to these idiots and slammed them back. I feel the same way when a actor punches out a paparatzi for jumping outta the bushes and snapping shots of the wife and kids. Little suckers had it coming.

So Bill Clinton has a temper. Fox News has no class. Get over it.

Is This Because She's A "Girl"?

Oh come on! The folks out there are saying that we need to stop "picking on" Senator Clinton over not admitting that she lost her bid for the nomination and give her more time to wind things down. That she needs a few days to "get her bearings" before we can expect her to concede to Senator Obama. Uh-huh. Poor dear might burst into tears or something eh? Please. If this Senator from New York were male no one would be saying that he needed a few days. They would be rightly annoyed that in the speech last night there was no concession. No acknowledgement that the good fight had been fought but the better candidate won. Nope. If a male candidate needed to get his "bearings" it would cast all sorts of aspersions on his manhood. You can not have it both ways people. You can't claim sexism when folks expect the candidate to act like a candidate and not a "girl" and then want a free pass to act like a girl once she has lost. You don't want sexis...

I Just Do Not Understand... Maybe I Shouldn't

I may be repeating myself but it bears repeating... We've all seen the news reports. Black persons dying in custody or being shot or injured by police officers. The Black Lives Matter movement ( #BlackLivesMatter ) interrupting political rallies or matching in the streets. The response of All Lives Matter only serving to upset those trying to make a point with Black Lives Matter. I am appalled by what I am seeing, horrified even. But the really unnerving thing is: I really do not understand. I do not understand why after all this time, this nation is still struggling with and denying racial prejudice. Why can't we move beyond this stupid - apparently ingrained - dislike/hatred/fear of anyone who looks/acts/believes differently than "we" do? Toddlers do not come with built-in hate of someone with a different skin color. They seem fascinated by it at first then rapidly get over it and move to playing and giggling. They roughest thing they get into is that-t...

Fun Business Terms

Recently our local paper had a funny bit on new business terms. Apparently the writer had spent some time online and came across some great new words. Of course he had the time to spend online while at work because he is also the paper's editor. Be that as it may - and it does conjure up some interesting arguments over why the boss gets to surf while at work and the staff doesn't these are pretty darned good. To whit: Blamestorming - a meeting to discuss failures and find a scapegoat Assmosia - the apparent absorption of success that comes from sucking up (aka kissing a**) Deja moo - (my personal favorite) the feeling that you've heard this bunch of bull before Mouse potato - a close cousin to the coach potato this is a person who spends hours and hours in front of a computer Percussive maintenance - the common practice of 'fixing' something by banging on it repeatedly Photox - improving the look of one's face in a photo through the use of graphic software Dope-...
