Movie Reviews

Weeellll, it's certainly about time I posted something else to my site besides political stuff. Even I need a break from time to time. So back to a few good movies...or bad movies...or anything in between. And this falls in the upper scale of "good movies" and "in between".

"It's only because he's black"

Democrat

The latest firestorm from the democratic campaign seems to have been sprung from a teetering, senile old woman and would-be vice president from 1984. Perhaps it’s time that these old politicians from yesteryear hang up their hats and step aside as it's becoming increasingly evident on BOTH sides of the isle that their personal agendas are outdated, their belief systems are outdated and their personal opinions tainted by premises that we as a country have grown beyond, or at least SHOULD have grown beyond.
With this latest remark as posed by Ms. Ferarro that Mr. Obama would not be where he was if here were white (paraphrasing) is insulting to Mr. Obama and to all of his supporters and shows the dubious underpinnings of a voice of a generation that has worn out its welcome with its rhetoric. And to further complicate the matter and enforce this continued rhetoric as was mentioned in ABC News (From ABC News) only speaks to the fact that it doesn't seem to matter which side of the fence these politicians are on, their agendas and personal beliefs are the same stagnant politics that brought us to where we are now and this country is so desperately wanting to change.

No Smoking Gun - No Shit!

In a report by ABC News today (From ABC News) it was reported by our Military Intelligence, the world authority on "whoops", that there was nothing in all that they found that made ties from the Saddam run Iraq to Al Queda. Gee, big surprise. And this is newsworthy how?

"The Smell of Sweat" a poem by Joseph Zawghi

I've been meaning to post this for a long time. I attend an open mic here in my neck of the woods on an infrequent basis. This young man also attends regularly. He read this poem aloud one night and I thought it was remarkable enough that it deserved some mention here on my site. So without anything further, I bring you, "The Smell of Sweat" by Joseph Zawghi.

The $54 Million Dollar Notebook that wasn't

General Insanity

I heard about this story on Good Morning America about a young lady suing Best Buy for a notebook...for $54 MILLION dollars! That's ONE EXPENSIVE notebook! The more I heard about it, the more I could only shake my head at BOTH her AND Best Buy for their stupidity. So I looked it up on ABC news (From ABC News) and sure enough - it's true. Yet another fine example of why we are continuing to work on trying to show just how stupid we've all become.
You know, we keep striving for faster, more efficient service and we expect the world in return. Such has been the American mentality. And the corporations have been glad to provide it, but at what cost? Well, two immediate thoughs come to mind - the first being the loss of some measure of intelligence on our part and the lack of QUALITY service by the corporations on the other. This particular case demonstrates both!
