Ah the Internet how I Love Thee

So yeah I have to be in Boston on business. I’m the only one here tonight from work and don’t know my way around at all. Likewise my hotel is off the main transit lines. Thankfully due to knowing so many people online I have a contact here that was able to give me a ride from the airport to the hotel. Seriously this Internet thing isn’t only a great source of information but a great source of contacts.

Bedtime Stories for Libertarian Households

Via Says Uncle we have bedtime stories for libertarian households.

The first two are “The Three Little Pigs Learn That If You Own A Rifle, You Can Build Your House Out Of Any Damn Material You Want” and the second one is “Goldilocks Violates Some Property Rights And Is Lucky She Doesn’t Get Shot In The Face.”

Great stories that should prove some life lessons.

Wow Windows Vista Really Failed

I never liked Windows Vista but it just dawned on me how big of a failure it was. There is a story on Slashdot about how Microsoft wasn’t going to back port a patch made in Vista and Server 2003 to XP. My first reaction was to complain how they won’t support their operating system even though their new one isn’t out yet.

Yeah I totally forgot there was a version between Windows XP and Windows 7 called Windows Vista. Yup it was so bad I suppressed the memory of it’s existence.

Hypocrisy Today

Man I just love hypocrisy, especially when it comes from those who like to play the holier than thou card. Well I’m sure you’ve all heard about Representative Joe Wilson’s outburst during Obama’s recent speech. Well honestly the outburst really is a non-story but boy are those “progressive” liberals jumping on it as if it is.

See as I’ve stated many times I have a lot of liberal friends, some are just liberal while others are “progressive” liberals. They always harp on me when I start going against an elected official because they’re anti-gun. It’s mostly how adamant I become at getting the representative out of office that they distain. Well I’m looking at my Facebook page this morning and noticing a trend that seemed to start last night. Many of my liberal friends are calling for Mr. Wilson’s head. I’ve seen enough posts on the man who plans to run against him in the upcoming election to choke a horse. They’re becoming zealous in the mission to remove this man.

I guess I should just write it off as a do as I say not as I do thing. It’s funny to me watching the hypocrisy unfold.

This is How it Should Be

Well my work trip has almost concluded. I’m sitting in Detroit for two hours awaiting my flight back to my secure bunker in Minnesota. My two co-workers, being experienced flyers, were able to get transferred to an earlier flight and are now gone leaving me here alone. Sounds like a rough first experience for flying huh? Well no. To make up for the fact they couldn’t get me on the earlier flight one of my co-workers handed me a pass to the Delta Sky Club lounge.

I’m sitting here enjoying free and unlimited wine, whiskey, food, and coffee. The seats are amazing and the place is unpopulated enough where I have a section to myself to do as I please. I must say if I could experience this every time I flew I’d fly a lot.

Anyways blogging should return to normal tomorrow. Now if you’ll excuse me my glass of Jim Beam is looking mighty low.
