On things

I still don’t think it’s really set in yet, even after all this time. It feels like just yesterday that you called, and said, “Dude, are we going to EnP?” I still expect my phone to start playing A Message To You Rudy, and you to be on the other end, asking what’s up.

But that call doesn’t come.

And it kills me.

Everyday.

House update 2-24-08

We’re slowly edging closer to having the bathroom done. The tub and shower is seated and the water is all hooked up, we have the storage cupboards built, and tomorrow we will have all the cement board down that we need before we can put the tile down. Hopefully, within another month or two, we’ll have the bathroom all done.

Andrea’s mom has been working on what will be our bedroom, and she’s just about done with it as well, so we’re probably only a month or two away from being able to move in. Probably closer to two.

We ended up having to buy a new oven. The stove top worked on the one that was left in the house, but we found out the the oven part didn’t. We got a Frigidaire Elements, with a convenction oven and all kinds of bells and whistles. It’s pretty awesome.

The Golden Age

Reason Magazine – The Golden Age

In the increasingly divided American landscape, where language, faith, and prime-time television no longer unite us as they once did, a thin golden line holds the nation together. It connects entities as disparate as Britney Spears, the Miami Dolphins, the Tecumseh High School Science Club, the cashier at your local Walgreen’s, even George W. Bush. Its domain is the restroom stall. Its associated features include tiny plastic cups, attentive strangers, and, on occasion, latex stunt penises and disposable heat packs.

It is, of course, the precautionary drug test. In 2008 it doesn’t matter if you’re a millionaire entertainer, a service-industry clock puncher, or the leader of the free world: We’re all citizens of Urine Nation.

Back to the old layout

I’ve gone back to my much more simple old layout. I came to miss it. I definitely think it’s more my style.

The R3VO_|UTION Called To March on Washington!

Newsvine – The R3VO_|UTION Called To March on Washington!

“Who Will Answer? Ron Paul has asked us to march on Washington. One final exuberant death throw to the birth of this campaign. A last laugh at the casket before the noose-man imagines his victory. A final march, a demonstration that whatever happens Liberty can never truly be taken away. The horn has sounded and who answers the call?”

I wish I had the money right now to do this. I’ll be there in spirit though.

Ron Paul at CPAC

Reason Magazine – Hit & Run > Ron Paul at CPAC

If anyone was wondering what effect Ron Paul’s new hires like Doug Bandow or Daniel McCarthy were having on Ron Paul’s campaign, it was on display when he addressed CPAC late yesterday, the last candidate to speak to the grand ballroom before it was cleaned up for a banquet. Paul’s speech was the most combative I’d ever heard from him, and the message sent out from his campaign was that it wouldn’t be the last. He is not stopping his bid to shore up his House seat. He’s going to be in this race as long as the money’s flowing. At 10 a.m. today he’s speaking at Liberty University, meaning he wants protest votes in the fading GOP race when it goes to Virginia on Tuesday.
