Prime Minister devalued

Here is a clip my dad found on You Tube. Most people have got it, I think, but it is still funny.
this is a photo of Daniel Hannan MEP

road records

recently in a Californian desert town grooves were cut into the road surface to play the "Lone Ranger" when cars drive along it. But some residents do not like it that much, they say it sounds like a horrible screeching sound not a nice tune. Maybe luckily state officials have agreed to pave over the grooves, so no more screeching ranger.

Happy Turkey Day

In the traditions of our ancestors (or some of our's)we eat a very ugly bird. Today most people think of the Macy's day parade ,but this is not the only parade today ,there is a big parade in Philadelphia(which is also the oldest in the U.S.A) and probably big parades in many other places.So have a good turkey day.

Obama v. The Stock Market

Recently as we all know Barack Obama was elected president. Before being elected the news personalities were predicting a big rise in the stock market if he was elected, but if you look at stock chart on NOV/5/08 the stock market took a turn for the worst. And it has also been bad since then ,with no end in site...

Hail to the CO2

People in these times say that green house gasses are killing animals and plants .But if I remember my 1st grade science class plants need carbon dioxide and the more CO2 they get the more O2(oxygen).So even though we do produce methane we also produce CO2 so intern we indirectly produce O2.

The scary day is approaching

By reading my title you probably think I am referring to Halloween(hallows-eve) but I am not. I am referring to November 4Th presidential election day.(If you are PRO government stop reading this right now). OK, if you(the reader) have listened to the news you will see Obama and McCain just throwing insults at each other like a child(like every other political election).Now I ask you would you rather have a bad president a bad president or none of the above,sadly the last option is not a option .

And I Can See a Bad Four Years from My Backyard

About a week ago I was on Youtube. And one of the highlighted movies on the main screen was an imitation of Sarah Palin and Hillary Clinton. It's not one of the highlighted movies any more, but if you search "Sarah Palin and Hillary Clinton" a lot of results will come up. Only some of them show the imitation.

One of the funniest parts in these imitations are when Hillary says "I believe diplomacy should the cornerstone of any foreign policy." And then Sarah Palin says "And I can see Russia from my house!"

This land

At Cafe Hayek if you click on August 2008, then search "campaigning" you should find a link to "Time for Some Campaigning," a spoof on the 2008 election. This video is by JibJab. If you go to their website they have a spoof on the 2004 election which you should watch (the whole way through, literally) and they have "Time for Some Campaigning." The spoof on the 2004 election is called "This Land." There is a little bit of bad language, but only twice and it's not the worst bad language. I think it's hysterical, for all you libertarians out there.

The Spores are Coming

There is a new game out called Spore where you start out as a one celled organism on the microscopic level and get to the macroscopic level and then to civilization and then to galactic conquest (cool!).

This game is compatible with windows and mac(there is also a ipod,iphone model). I highly recommend this game to anyone who has a interest in fun and sort if not very educational games.

K for Klingon

On my way to school today I was thinking that it would be very interesting to have a Star Trek series told from the point of view of the Klingons, especially before the Klingons and the Federation had an alliance. It would be good if the series would start in the early Star Trek Enterprise era, where Star Fleet found a Klingon and brought him back to Qo' noS. This is when the Federation and the Klingons first became enemies. Then maybe after 70 or 8o episodes of this series you'd create a new series in the original series era. And to close out the Star Trek series there would another 70 or 80 episodes from after the Khitomer Accord--during the Next Generation era. Wouldn't that be cool to all you trekkies out there?
