Screech's Special Sauce

So yesterday I came across this video:


Which has a whole new unsavory flavor to it after the release of this:


But after that video I came across this:



Which then took me to a Saved by the Bell jackpot at this site. You can take a Bayside quiz, play SBTB photohunt, find out which character you are, and watch clips . It's a great waste of time, this show still cracks me up. Remember the episode where Zack started fucking the homeless chick that lived in the mall at Christmas? What a giver. After you're done there then you can check this out:

Today

Today is looking pretty grim, I've got tons of stuff to do but I'll try and post some stuff tonight. Just wanted to give an update, thanks for checking in, try back later...

Also, I have some friends that want to guest blogging here and there, I'll let you know when that's starting, I can't promise that they'll be as insightful, clever and witty as myself, but hopefully that will help to fill the void.

McCain's Biggest Asset

So the big talk in politics today is all about Hillary Clinton's speech last night at the DNC convention, and the question of the impact it will have on the November election. Did it fully throw her support to Obama, bolster McCain, or just stay even? While Clinton may have appeared to fully throw her support (and supporters) to Obama, some believe that her convention role will ultimately end up keeping her supporters from backing him. As John Dickerson of Slate stated:

But there was one big flaw in the pitch: Clinton never made the case that Barack Obama was ready to lead as commander in chief.
Consider this: McCain ran the following ad last week using Hillary's own words against Obama:



The video shows Hillary's "3:00 AM" ad and her assertion that McCain would be better prepared as President than Obama. After the ad ran Clinton had to rebuke McCain's ads and say
I'm Hillary Clinton, and I do not approve that message
Yet after all that, she didn't think to state that Obama was ready to serve last night in her convention speech? Maybe we should look at things from her perspective. Consider what happens if Obama wins the 2008 election. That puts the next possible year for Clinton to run for the Presidency again at 2016, when she'll be 69, as Obama will get the 2012 run as the incumbent candidate. But what if Hillary can throw her supporters to McCain, who was long considered a "maverick" by the Democrats before he was running for the Presidency? For proof, check out these clips:



It wouldn't be unthinkable for her supporters to flock to him, and Obama's loss in this election cycle would make her the imminent front runner for the 2012 election, when she would still be relevant and would have spent the past 4 years gaining support. Of course Clinton can't blatantly advocate this path, but some of her supporters are clearly not on the Obama bandwagon after last night:



Now it just remains to be seen whether or not Hillary's supporters figure out that a vote for McCain in 2008 means a vote for Clinton in 2012. You can bet she's hoping they do.

Lightmark


This website has some really cool photos that must be long-exposure or something to capture these light trails. The site's in some Scandinavian language so I'm not really sure what they did, but the pictures look really cool.

Baseball and Football



This is great - George Carlin on the differences between the two. Baseball doesn't come out on top. How you like that Beau?

Nikki B's Blog, Meow



That little journalist Nikki B has her own blog right here on Blogger as well. Like a Katie Couric that doesn't fucking suck, Nikki's blog covers everything from animal rights to politics, to celeb updates and everything in between. Check it out here:

Life in the Nikki & Kinki-dom

And don't forget to leave her a "Meow" or two in her comments.

Way To Go Girls!



Glad to see some people out there who still have some respect for the President.



Whether they agree with his politics or not, they're at least appreciative that the most powerful man in the world came out to support them and their country. Go USA!

Hi Everybody

So I've been thinking about starting a blog for a while now, if for nothing else then just to have an outlet for all of the useless trivia floating around inside my head. For those of you that enjoy my sometimes (read: always) inappropriate sense of humor, this should help you get more than your fill. I'm sure I'll throw in some politics, music, and local D.C. stuff whenever I see it, and hopefully can have some interesting stuff on here for those in the know. Drop me some comments and let me know any suggestions you have for the site, your feedback is appreciated. Here we go...
