The Giants’ Heart-breaking Loss

Sunday, October 27th, 2002 · Comments Off on The Giants’ Heart-breaking Loss

The Giants lost a heart-breaking game yesterday when the monkey-lovin’ Angels from Anaheim came from behind to overcome a 5-nothing deficit. Tonight is Game 7 and the Giants will have to give the Angels a serious ass-whoopin’ to make up for yesterday. Dad is coming over again for dinner and to watch the game. I […]

Giants Win 16-4

Thursday, October 24th, 2002 · Comments Off on Giants Win 16-4

The Giants just kicked the Angels’ asses, 16-4! Woohoo! What a great birthday present to Dad, who watched the game with us tonight. Also, I just checked my work email and read a security advisory from earlier this afternoon about a bank robbery that happened at the Wells Fargo I frequent. Eerily enough, when I […]

Hit-and-Run Accident

Tuesday, October 22nd, 2002 · Comments Off on Hit-and-Run Accident

Following a fatal hit-and-run accident at Harrison and Main early this morning by some maniacal asshole still on the loose, Jen had the unfortunate stomach-churning experience of walking by the crime scene on her way to work and seeing the body of the victim, partially covered by a tarp and still in the driver’s seat. […]

Fittingly Foggy Weather

Thursday, October 10th, 2002 · Comments Off on Fittingly Foggy Weather

Today is a fittingly foggy and cold day as the House passes a resolution authorizing Bush to use force against Iraq if it does not comply with weapons inspections. This despite the fact that Americans are more concerned about our own country — the economy, corporate accountability, education. But leave it to Bush and high-powered […]

Not In Our Name Campaign

Tuesday, October 8th, 2002 · Comments Off on Not In Our Name Campaign

This Not In Our Name campaign is very cool. I will be adding my name to this list. I’m also pleased to see Frances D. Fergusson‘s name on the list. The president of Vassar makes me proud to have earned my degree there. The president of our country disgusts me in his single-minded black-and-white way […]

“People ask me if…I’m dead.”

Friday, October 4th, 2002 · Comments Off on “People ask me if…I’m dead.”

“People ask me if…I’m dead.” This rocks. This dude running for Senate in Montana is actually blue. Has the true leader of the Smurfs emerged at last?

I’m Changing the Climate

Tuesday, October 1st, 2002 · Comments Off on I’m Changing the Climate

This site rocks. Maybe SUV drivers who commute solo with their big American flag stickers will get the picture some day that oil is a limited resource and they’d be doing a hell of a lot more good for this country by selling their gas-guzzling road hogs than slapping a sticker that says nothing more […]

I like what Yahoo! has done to its home page today in honor of the first 9-11 memorial. Yahoo! has also put together a nice tribute page for victims of the attacks.

9/11: One Year Later

Wednesday, September 11th, 2002 · Comments Off on 9/11: One Year Later

It’s hard to believe a full year has already gone by since that tragic day that the face of America was changed forever. As someone pointed out on NPR this morning, the mood of the country seems to be more somber than anger. 365 days ago, as Americans and citizens of the world watched in […]
