It was the quote of the day today. I added it to my Quotes plugin that displays a random quote on my right-most side bar. I like to find quotes that means something to me and share them there… today I found one interesting enough to do a post on.

In a follow up to my other post on Obama looking promising on the tech front, this came across my desk today.
Basically the plan seems to be to have weekly YouTube addresses.  I actually like this plan.  I am a little leery of it in light of the Twitter Feed not having been updated since [...]

Well a growing number of scientists are pointing to evidence that the planet is entering a mini-iceage.  Which, if true, kind of puts a damper on the whole “global warming crisis.”
Rob over at Sayanythingblog has a few exerpts from an article discussing it.  It actually isn’t the first time the world has entered into a [...]

Well I think it is time for a followup on my “Tyranny [...]

One of the questions I get from time to time goes a bit like this: “Jake, where do you find this stuff?”  That typically is a reference to a blog I linked to, news article, etc.
The short answer is - I read. A lot.  I use Google Reader to subscribe to many different blogs/websites/newspapers/etc.  Last [...]

I have been pondering for a day or two what I wanted to write. ThatEdeGuy had a good post on it this morning as well. I had a feeling this post was going to wander a bit, but at least wanted to have a point. Something people could bring away from this post. What does [...]

I actually just recently made a post linking to Logan’s blog: It’s Good to be in N.D. (The Firefighters’ Muster Video.) I have now actually linked to his blog directly on my left side links. If you haven’t read his blog before, make sure to do so.
