Michael Brown, disgraced former head of FEMA, is starting a new disaster-preparedness for-profit consulting firm. I guess he figures that he's already made every concievable mistake, therefore he is the most experienced man in the room. :) From the AP and Rocky Mountain News : Former FEMA director Michael D. Brown, criticized over his
My favorite is that he plans to give the machine to charity after the baby is born. Problem with that? The hospitals probably won't want used equipment. What he should do? He and Katie should autograph it and put it up on eBay. It would fetch a lot more money there than just some dumb ol' used sonogram machine would.
But yes, I do feel as though the mother ship has called me home. I am very happy here.
Those sure are pretty buildings. You can see my office window in that first picture, of the two shiny new buildings. I'm in the building on the left. That's me waving. Amazing that I am the first (of many, I assume) to post comments on this very popular thread. Oh, that's right, opinions of the National Stuttering Agency ("So where do you work?" "Uhhh... ummm, well, I ..."): 1) There is about as much work getting done a
Watching the Aggies duke it out with the Longhorns yesterday made me a little homesick. For TEXAS. For Texas, of all places. I can't get through three months away from the place without getting all misty whenever I think about TEXAS. I like Austin very much. Hills, cool people, cultural scene, outdoors, lakes, rivers, bike paths... yeah. I li
What we need is for Bush to go back to Texas and stay there And yet you rebuke him for dawdling and going on vacation in Crawford. I know that's not what you meant, but... Haven't you ever heard of the "constructive" part of "constructive criticism"?! Offer some solutions, smarty pants!
In the continuing struggle against the ruling class, Hugo Chavez is a friend. iViva Revoluccion! iViva Chavez! What a friend to the working classes. To whom did he send the heating oil, but to the two states most likely to oppose any economic or military intervention in Venezuela. <TA
Or maybe the fact that Arnold is/was an actor has left a bad taste in their mouths. A politician is only as good as his/her advisors. If the collective minds (inlcuding Warren Buffett) in Sacramento can't drag California out of its economic slump, then yeah, I can see why people have a bad taste in
If "thou shalt not get knocked up" was part of the initial contract, then by any means she should get canned. If this contract is anything like BYU's Honor Code , then yes, it was in the contract. Brigham Young Univ.'s honor code forbids the students from drinking, smoking, cohabiting with the opposite sex
Or it could just be voter apathy. The election in California isn't till Nov 2006, just under a year away.
So I found this online this morning. It just shows me that celebrities can never win elections. "Celebrities with Opinions" -------------------------------------------- Director Rob Reiner and actor Warren Beatty are well known to California voters if either decides to
Or clean bathrooms or sing in the Army Chorus I *never* tried out for the Army Chorus, thank you very much! My own bathroom is bad enough, I don't need to clean out any more public urinals. Did my time. </font
Analysts like singrdave are just there to make coffee. Ouch. You gonna take that abuse, Singrdave? Oh it is on, Geez. On like Donkey Kong. If I was anyw
I have always assumed Jesus was soft on crime. Too much forgiveness in his heart, too much understanding for sin.
Nice job, dude. That's what Thanksgiving is for. We ate at 2:30 and I am still full. And I didn't go crazy, either. I love Thanksgiving. Aren't you glad there won't be a weigh-in on Monday? Happy Thanksgiving to you and your lovely wife!
Here is my response to his email: Hi again Mr. Lafayette, Thank you for your response. Quite honestly, I was not expecting one. I am glad that you and others feel you are filling a public need. Because open debate is a wonderful thing. While I am not one to muck-rake or stir up contention, I am also of a mind that your opinions are trying to do just those things. I cite certain screeds on the front page of your site r
Here is his letter, almost in its entirety. Form your own opinions: Hello Mr {singrdave} Here is what another person I never heard from before who found my site the same way you did;wrote: Eric, Wow. I just happened upon your web-site. You are incredibly concise, articulate, honest and able to brilliantly summarize complicated events. I think you should become a politician,. If that would be to m
Do you really think the Iranians are "doing just fine"? Yes, I think the Iranians are scoring quite well on their externals. They have a pretty sound economy, good oil exportation rates (without being a member of OPEC), and they are pretty liberally minded for an oppressive religious regime. They have
technically it's wOOt Sorry to nitpick, but it's "w00t". With zeroes for O's. Can I bring you my Metro?
Don't you work? Surfing the web is not a full time job! I do work, but do you think there was much productivity the afternoon before the Thanksgiving holiday
Also, I don't know if you have a word limit 500 word limit. I came in at 526. I would have loved to have expanded it to encompass more. I'm sure I'll get my chance later on in the courses. This was just my admissions application. <TABLE cellpadding=8 width="95%" align=center bgColor=#FFF394
Can't wait to see your paper. It's up, at Democracy is the Best Form of Government? Have a good read, comments and criticisms are welcome!
But making mom and dad into targets Didn't they do that in 1984 ? Turn kids against their parents? (I know they did. Rhetorical question.)
Here is the promised essay for my Norwich University Master's degree program in Diplomacy: Comments and criticisms are welcome. Honestly they are. {singrdave} Norwich University application essay 23 November 2005 The question of spreading democracy is on the minds of Americans these days. Is our American way of life the gre
Meaning "Go eat white sorghum candy." Delectable white sorghum candy is clearly a substitue for.....sorghum candy. The Korean speakers in my office translated "yot" as taffy. Go eat taffy, X-SPC. (Pronounced "ex-spec", BTW.)
