Head's Political Prognostications for 2006

2006 is going to be a really big year for politics--city, state, and national. Here's my take on what to expect.

Look! It's the dude fron the doughnut commercials - what's-his-name!

Did anyone know that the name of the actor in the Dunkin Donuts was the late Michael Vale? Unless you're one of the nastalgic types who get a kick out of trivia questions, probably not. However, for all the other what's-his-names, AKA character actors, there is a way to find out who these kinda-sorta-famous people are.

ARTICLE: Fitness Industry Woos Black Consumers

Thanks to this title, I now have that Jeffery Osborne song in my head now: "And ya WOO WOO WOO, and ya WOO WOO WOO..." (That's also a clue to the rest of the story.)

Big Brother Investigating Who Told On Him

The New Colin Farrell

I can harldy stop giggling long enough to post this story.

Sweden: New Pants "Hate Christians."

This AP article was highly entertaining to me. Mainly because Sweden comes off as being the Twilight Zone version of the United States.

Sex Shop Goes Up In Flames

This takes care of one of Melton's issues.

Internet Gambling: Illegal But Profitable

What grabbed my attention was this:

The New York Times has an interesting piece on Internet gambling that I thought would spark interest. Who knew? Even online poker appears to be illegal -- I'm not sure if that extends to the type of Texas Hold-em tournaments that I've been eyeing on pokerroom.com. (I haven't yet had the guts to play one for money...but are the tourneys legal, technically?)

Merry Christmas!

My blog is usually pretty serious, so here are a few random stocking stuffers to throw my karma back into balance...

He Sees You When You're Sleeping, He Knows When You're Awake

Whether you've borrowed Mao Tse-tung's Little Red Book from the library or like to hang out at gay-themed events, the Bush administration wants to know about it.

Christmas on the Coast

I have just finished wrapping the last present and laying it on the ever growing pile in the corner. There is only a "pile" because I have no tree. I have cats. Cats eat trees. If they don't eat them, they kill them. And, if they don't kill them, they knock them over, chew the lights up, and electrocute themselves. The house would then smell of melted cat fur and cinnamon for the next week. Ask me how I know this.

Kwanzaa's coming up

I was excited to see that Yahoo! Avatars had a few Kwanzaa backgrounds.

At least this is something I don't have to keep sending feedback for. I've asked for dreadlocks and for them to move the Afro out of the Halloween section, but I haven't seen anything done yet in that regard.

Fun with Cheney

Join the fun, everyone!

WASHINGTON - The Republican-controlled Senate

Pennsylvania Judge Rules: Intelligent Design is Not Science

The Dover "monkey trial" (discussed in a previous blog entry here) ended exactly as it should have: With a ruling that defends the scientific method from those who would push it aside by force. Somewhere, Galileo is smiling.
