I'm kinda pleased with myself. :D Flickr link http://www.teammurder.com/notetomyself/?p=27 During my lunch reading on BoingBoing, I came across an article concerning a bill in the Kansas house of representatives that affects campaign contributions and indeed seems specifically aimed at, conveniently enough, the challenger of the rep who's sponsoring it. Sean Tevis ran against this representative, Scott Schwab (R) Olathe, ... http://www.teammurder.com/notetomyself/?p=26 As I cannot vote, not being a citizen, I will blog. I tweeted about a certain uneasiness concerning the election. I made a clumsy attempt at humour to attribute the jitters to working in an office full of McCain supporters, but I was thinking about the somewhat storied history of the ... http://www.teammurder.com/notetomyself/?p=25 It's interesting to me, considering how animated I was on commenting on things election-related during the last presidential cycle, that this time around I can barely be bothered to post. Part of it, I suspect, is that this time around it looks like someone I like may actually win, so ... http://www.teammurder.com/notetomyself/?p=24 Maybe it's the (election) season, but anymore I feel like I should rename this blog "Lefty in the twilight zone," because every time I turn around I find myself being circumspect about my political stance seemingly despite the trend of things away from the so-called "Bush Legacy," the Palin bounce ... http://www.teammurder.com/notetomyself/?p=23 I know, I know. Late to the party, but I'm still seeing ads for Microsoft's attempt to stanch the hemorrhage of mind share being fueled by Vista - The Mojave Experiment. And I have to call a bit of shenanigans. Yes, I must question the rigour. :P If you're not familiar ... http://www.teammurder.com/notetomyself/?p=22 A relatively recent addition my already somewhat ridiculous amount of reading is TechRepublic's Digest. As suggested by the name, it comes to me via e-mail, pre-chewed and ready for consumption. I got on at TR about 6 years ago and dropped it after a while before being turned back onto ... http://www.teammurder.com/notetomyself/?p=21 I'm trying something a little different. Lifehacker had a post last week about training to perform 100 consecutive push-ups in six weeks and I figured I'd give it a shot. What the heck, eh? To be twittered, of course. That seems like a natural thing to twitter. http://www.teammurder.com/notetomyself/?p=20 Ok, first off: I don't know this guy and didn't know about him until he showed up on Boing Boing a few of days ago, the fact that he lives, maybe, 25 away minutes by car notwithstanding. He appears to match my age, politics, temperament, humor and career field so, ... http://www.teammurder.com/notetomyself/?p=19 How is it that I missed this fluffy bit of goodness? Oh yeah, that bit about the missing cable tv connection. TGFH (Thank God for Hulu). Really, this should have been a Twitter post. Ah well, the day is young. And Gabrielle Anwar? She's doing quite well, and who knew she ... http://www.teammurder.com/notetomyself/?p=18
