The glorious voice of the people

November 17th, 2008 by dave

I would be remiss if I didn’t point out that the herald of the Cold War, obtuse propaganda outhouse Pravda, is still alive and doing well. In fact they have an English language website. Though we may have forgotten this Soviet-era joke is still pretty damn funny:

…the Netherlands, one of the Empire’s most obsequious vassal states.

Georgia’s Saakashvili nervously giggles to Putin’s intention to hang him by the balls

What really sucked about the Cold War, was that we didn’t all have the internet on which we could enjoy the ramblings of our drunken enemies.

From an AP story by Andrew Vanacore

Ask Avery Griffin, who switched to an Apple Inc. computer a few years ago for its audio recording software. The 24-year-old musician said his new machine wouldn’t stop freezing up and crashing. But he said all he heard from Apple was, “At least it’s not a PC.”

The PC he uses now works just fine, he said.

It’s a gorgeous day here in WNY. The sun was so bright today that it actually was able to penetrate the windowless tomb I work in.

Dear Loud

Dear Loud,

I would appreciate if you would take your very loud Jerry Springer telephone conversation away from my office. I have to work here while you don’t have to be telling the world how much you like drugs and older men here.

Sincerely,
Annoyed

Imagine my surprise

November 4th, 2008 by dave

In a telephone conversation today I was asked about the election results:

So, will we be eating chicken and watermelon tomorrow?

Can you believe that that sort of racist attitude still exists? And then I was told that I should have voted for McCain-Palin because she’s hot. Racism and sexism… now there’s a comprehensive platform.

This morning, on Fox News Sunday, Brit Hume said that Barack Obama “gladdens his heart.” What the #@%#??? Does that count as an endorsement? Did I just drop alot of acid?

I’m bullish on Western New York

October 25th, 2008 by dave

I AM bullish on Western New York. It’s especially easy these days, the Buffalo Bills are number one in the AFC at 5-1-0, the Buffalo Sabres are number 1 at 6-0-1, and even the Jamestown Jets Jr. Hockey team is at 7-0-1! And because we don’t have a major league baseball team, we get to cheer for the Phillies in the Fall Classic. Meanwhile, while the rest of the country is dealing with a painful contraction of the job market, we have yet to feel the impact here in WNY… you can’t really miss something you never had!
