1. I think part of a best  friend’s job should be to immediately clear your computer history if you  die.

2. Nothing sucks more than that moment during an argument  when you realize you’re wrong.

3. I totally take back all those  times I didn’t want to nap when I was younger.

4. There is great  need for a sarcasm font.

5. How the hell are you supposed to fold a fitted sheet?

6. Was learning cursive really necessary?  

7. Map Quest really needs to start their directions on # 5. I’m  pretty sure I know how to get out of my neighborhood.

8. Obituaries would be a lot more interesting if they told you how the person died.

9. I can’t remember the last time I wasn’t at least  kind of tired.  

10. Bad decisions make good stories.

11. You never know when it will strike, but there comes a moment  at work when you know that you just aren’t going to do anything  productive for the rest of the day.  

12. Can we all  just agree to ignore whatever comes after Blue Ray? I don’t want to have  to restart my collection…again.

13. I’m always slightly  terrified when I exit out of Word and it asks me if I want to save any  changes to my ten page technical report that I swear I did not make any  changes to.  

14. I keep some people’s phone numbers in my  phone just so I know not to answer when they call.

15. I think the  freezer deserves a light as well.  

16. I disagree with Kay  Jewelers. I would bet on any given Friday or Saturday night more kisses  begin with Miller Lite than Kay.

17. I wish Google Maps had an  ”Avoid Ghetto” routing option.  

18. I have a hard time  deciphering the fine line between boredom and hunger.

19. How  many times is it appropriate to say “What?” before you just nod and  smile because you still didn’t hear or understand a word they said?

20. I love the sense of camaraderie when an entire line of  cars team up to prevent a jerk from cutting in at the front. Stay strong, brothers and sisters!

21. Shirts get dirty. Underwear  gets dirty. Pants? Pants never get dirty, and you can wear them forever.  

22. Sometimes I’ll look down at my watch 3 consecutive times and still not know what time it is.

23. Even  under ideal conditions people have trouble locating their car keys in a  pocket, finding their cell phone, and Pinning the Tail on the Donkey –  but I’d bet everyone can find and push the snooze button from 3 feet  away, in about 1.7 seconds, eyes closed, first time, every time!  

24. The first testicular guard, the “Cup,” was used in  Hockey in 1874 and the first helmet was used in 1974. That means  it only took 100 years for men to realize that their brain is also important.

Austin Tea Party Patriots
 

Last year, we were not able to go to the 9/12 rally in Washington, DC, since Greg’s company held its annual retreat on the same day.  We did not want to miss this year’s 8/28 “Restoring Honor” event, so we dug some airline and hotel points out of mothballs and made a trip of it with our 18-year old son. 

Here’s a short journal of our trip for those of you who might be interested. 

We left Austin very early Friday morning and (after the usual stop in another city that Bergstrom flyers are normally subjected to) arrived in DC around 1 pm.  We met Lily and Jim from the Bastrop Tea Party at Reagan National Airport and then headed over to the Washington Hilton.  When we arrived, our cabbie noted that “This is where Reagan was shot.”  Oh great.

Does Libertarian candidate for congress Ed Mishou believe former president George W. Bush should be indicted as Libertarian Judge Andrew Napolitano believes? Talk about Coffee Talk.

Is Napolitano of the Fox News Channel and Fox Business Channel trying to sell his latest book, Lies the Government Told You? In an unscientific survey, more conservative books tend to stay on the New York TimesBest Sellers than liberal ones. If Napolitano is trying to sell books, he may be selling it to the wrong side.

Or maybe he truly believes Bush should be indicted? You be the judge:

(Video is from ThinkProgress’s Youtube page. Think Progress thinks we Tea Partiers are a bunch of racists. I’d hate to give them any clicks, but they have the clip.)

Final exit question: Should we be more surprised by what that star Libertarian Judge Napolitano’s splashy declaration about former President George W. Bush or that the Judge would consider Ralph Nader a “colleague?

FINALLY!  Someone has taken the time to dedicate some web space to Republican accomplishments.  I’ve always wondered how the Republican party wound up being cast as the party of stodgy, old, racist, white men.  For crying out loud, LINCOLN WAS A REPUBLICAN

Check these out:

  • Republicans Established the Transcontinental Railroad
  • Republicans Passed the Land-Grant College Act
  • The First Hispanic Governor was a Republican
  • Republicans Freed the Slaves
  • Republicans Passed the 14th Amendment
  • Republicans Established the Buffalo Soldiers
  • Republicans Established Howard University
  • Republicans Passed the 15th Amendment
  • The First African-American Senator was a Republican
  • Republicans Outlawed the Ku Klux Klan
  • Yellowstone National Park

Read about more Republican accomplishments here.  The accompanying photos are awesome, too.

    When it came out last week that Milwaukee mayor (and Wisconsin Democratic candidate for governor in the upcoming recall election) Tom Barrett had skipped out on two ceremonies honoring Milwaukee police officers, there was some questions about what Barrett thought could possibly be more important that going to, say, a memorial service for slain Wisconsin poli […]

    Activist Chen Guangcheng and his immediate family are out of China. This is a good thing, and the Obama Administration deserves credit for making it happen. There will be plenty of opportunity for the American political system to assess the Administration’s initial handling of the matter and what it says about its foreign policy priorities. There are certain […]

  • Liberals Say Public Broadcasting’s $445 Million Federal Subsidy Is ‘Tiny’ May 19, 2012
    NPR, PBS and other public broadcasting outlets are asking taxpayers to fork over $445 million in funding for the next fiscal year. But not if Sen. Jim DeMint (R-SC) and Rep. Doug Lamborn (R-CO) have anything to say about it. The conservative lawmakers want to defund the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, the steward of the federal government’s “investment” […]

    When NATO leaders meet this weekend in Chicago, they are expected to announce an Interim Missile Defense Capability in Europe. This announcement might read well in the summit’s declaration, but a lot more will need to be done before the members of the alliance will be protected from the ever-increasing missile threat. According to NATO’s strategic concept, “ […]

  • Heights Chant Offends Edison March 8, 2012
    Here we go again. Last Saturday, Alamo Heights High School in San Antonio played basketball and beat San Antonio’s Edison High School in a state playoff game. Unfortunately, a few students from Heights began chanting “USA! USA!” Because Edison’s team roster is predominantly Hispanic, several “grown-ups” including SA Independent School District athletic direc […]
