Great news about bin Laden no longer among the living. Kudos to the military and intelligence forces who made it a reality.

Why is nobody (i.e., the press) talking about KSM? That's the guy who came up with the 9/11 attack plan in the first place. We've had him in custody for years, and our DoJ thought trying him in an NYC court was a good idea. I' ( Read more... )

Seems like most of the updating is happening over on Facebook. Still, I quite like having a quiet corner of the Interwebz where few know my secret identity. Facebook is too... public. Even locked down for "friends only" there are quite simply too many people to be polite and innocuous for ( Read more... )

Imagine if President George W. Bush had his policies ruled unconstitutional in the courts and he continued with them anyway. Or if he suddenly decided that he just didn't like a certain law and told his AG to stop defending it. The Left (and mainstream media) would be awash with cries for impeachment. It'd be a never-ending news cycle scandal ( Read more... )

Apparently, it's been so long since I've written anything in an actual script that I haven't even bothered adding the icon for Final Draft to my Dock after setting up my new hard drive last fall. I noticed this just as I was deciding where to drop the icon for an updated version of Truby's Blockbuster software (finally available for the Mac). I ( Read more... )

I find it tragically ironic that after eight years of the most venomous, vitriolic hate-filled declarations of ill-will and desires for nightmarishly violent ends to members of the previous Republican administration the Interwebz are today suddenly awash with petitions declaring a cease-fire on angry political rhetoric and begging for signatures ( Read more... )

Either they're not from here or they're millionaires from here. Otherwise there's no way a rational person could argue that making $250,000 in Southern California makes one "rich." The fact Congressional Democrats continue to focus on millionaires when they talk about extending tax cuts only proves how utterly dependent they are on class warfare ( Read more... )

It has been roughly a month since the last update. The LACMA costume went really well. T-Prime (formerly designate T2) finally saw why I was excited about it and willing to put in the work. We had plans to visit The Magic Castle on Halloween itself, but she was sidelined with a migraine and we spent the night in while I tried to take care of her ( Read more... )

Working on a fairly epic Halloween costume for Saturday's MUSE Ball here in LA, that consumes all non-work and even a bit of T2 time. It will be worth it. It's a very cool concept. T2 is very patient for a new girlfriend who really doesn't understand what I'm going on about when it comes to said "cool concept." She's got her slightly geeky side ( ( Read more... )

At the risk of jinxing it entirely, things are going rather well with T2. GWW was a success considering she's not much of a camper. She is, fortunately, a trooper. Everything else is rolling along quite nicely.
