A Successful Car Company...

That did not take a government bailout? Is that possible? No...couldn't be. Well, actually it looks like Ford is making $$ in 2009. Jump to the link here!

Pelosi, Reid and Obama (not necessarily in that order)must be licking their chops. This means more taxes for them! It must be time to level another tax on a successful company so as to "drive" them straight into the ground.

In response to the tax hike that is inevitable in Ford's future, Ford's spokesperson Mike Rowe (of Dirty Jobs fame) should go go to Washington and play Senator or Speaker for a day. If that job does not make him feel dirty, I don't know what else will. He might even clean "house".

iPad

It looks like the new iPad is on it's way from Apple. To me it looks like a big iPhone (as well as to others). I wish I had more thoughts on it than that. A comment was made on The Independents web site (and I quote): "Apple could sell a turd on a stick and the trendy folks would be killing each other in the streets to be the 1st to get it."

That may be but I do think Apple has had some ingenious products. I think this may just be the first of new things to come from Apple in this genre.

Apple's pricing can be seen here on the left. A bit expensive and makes me wonder if people will leave their laptops just to pick this up as a replacement. I am not so sure.

If you would like to see the new iPad you can make the jump here.

New Baby Name on the Popularity Rise?

I realize I have not blogged in a while and then all of a sudden I do twice in the same day. There are some things I just cannot pass up though.

The first part of this article feigns at the amazement that more babies are not being born now because of the euphoria that was the BO win 40 weeks or so ago.

The last paragraph really amazes me how fast the baby name Barack is moving up the charts. Hmmm...Barack Johnson, Barack Smith, Barack Olson, Barack Larson, Barack Kindseth....oh...maybe not.

FANGles Clinton...bitter?

Bitter might be a word quite undervalued in this situation. Fangles (AKA Hillary) Clinton might be a bit on edge after her husbands trip to North Korea...maybe? Check out the video link where she snaps at a bad translation from a student asking a question at a Congo Q & A session. HA!

'I'm Not Going To Be Channeling My...

Barbara Boxer - Call me Senator

Barbara, you are an over inflated bag of poo. Get over yourself and stop disrespecting the military. It is what these people do that allow you to work hard to be a "Senator". If it was not for our military men and women throughout the years, you would be picking weeds in a back alley in some communist run country praying for a quick demise. Give them the respect they deserve.
