And we did. Barack Obama is the 44th President of the United States. The eight-year nightmare is coming to an end. Voters came out in record-breaking numbers to cast their vote for change and renewal.
Now the hard work begins. It’s not about blue vs. red any longer. It’s about reuniting and rebuilding this country.
Yes, we [...]

One of the interesting things about today’s election is that Colorado may go Democrat for the first time in a number of elections. If so, I hope that means we’ll be included in the seccession from the country (see below). I’m afraid that they might not take us because of Colorado Springs, though.

Dear Red States:
We’ve [...]

Just in case you’re still wondering why you should vote for Obama, how about this: McCain is either an out-and-out liar or he’s demented.

This site documents someone’s clever approach to keeping cats off his kitchen counter. Basically he used off-the-shelf home-automation hardware to build a motion detector that turns on a noisy blender and flashes a bright light when the cat pokes around on the counter.

“As of September, 760,000 jobs have already been lost this year, according to data from the Bureau of [...]

This entry is partly intended for my own future reference. A few weeks ago we were trying to remember what the autumn weather in 2006 was like. 2006 was the year in which a blizzard dumped quite a lot of snow on us. We both had a vague recollection that the autumn weather that year [...]

I was going to try to stop blogging about the presidential candidates because that seems to be all I’m blogging about these days, but this is just too good. As related at CNN.com, it seems that things are quite a mess in the McCain/Palin camp. I particularly like these statements:
