Rants, ramblings and other thoughts

Just a couple of things that came up in this mind of mine today...

1 - Did anyone else see Bill Gates' announcement today? Yeah, I know he's considered to be Satan in certain circles (read: Apple and Linux and Google and many Windoze users as well), but I give him and Melinda full props for doing good things with their collective fortune.


2 - Two big huge, nasty thumbs down to the "Supreme Court" for allowing the police to have the power to barge in on your own personal habitat without a courtesy knock.

If you'd like to see the latest version of the Constitution and the "Bill Of Rights" intact, you'd better read it quick since it's being shredded to pieces at an incredible rate by this current adminstration.

3 - England won, and advanced to the second round of the World Cup!

4 - What the bloody hell were all of you doing on the "Garden State Parkway" at, oh, 4 o'clock this afternoon? I left work early for a reason...to beat the traffic...man, you were all harshing my mellow, and besides, I had to pick up things at Target, get my hair cut and wonder if the local "Barnes and Noble" had ever heard of Todd Snider.

5 - Congratulations to my cousin Dave for marrying the amazing Amy! We'll see you on Saturday with bells and whistles on!

Looking forward to the big occasion & the wearing of the bells!

About Bill Gates, I give him credit (and Paul Allen etc) for incredible business acumen-marketing, product integration, hiring some brilliant people, and to top if off, not getting very involved in politics. He could literally buy the Presidency if he wanted to do (of course Bush & Kerry beat him to the punch). He has far more power than them anyway.
