I dreamed that I was having a conversation with a couple of random people walking down the street about how the new Colorado Rockies (MLB) owner is pretty out there... That he's the only one where none of his players are in the union because he doesn't believe in it, so when the looming baseball strike comes they may still be playing.
Also, about how he's been a very vocal voice for legalization of marijuana and wants to allow it throughout his stadium at home games.
I said that like it or not, MLB said they wanted a different and challenging kinda new owner for that team, and here it is.
Mind you, I don't think any of the above is the least bit true, and I have absolutely no idea who the owner or owners of the Colorado Rockies are. Or why I'd be thinking of them in the first place.

Cuz you gotta have dreams. And class.
I think really my secret deepest goal is someday to be rich enough and connected enough that I can make donations to legislators just to get them to put random shit out there on official record.
Like, giving a state senator a thousand bucks to find a way to legitimately use "#SimpsonsDidIt !!!" from the floor.
Or tossing a congressman $10,000 to say "Mr. chair, I'd like to take a moment of personal privilege if I might. Ahem. MONKEYS!!!!!!!! Thank you."

spambots gfy
So, I had to delete one of my old posts that was just a silly story about being a freshman in college... somehow a line in it must have been a trigger for spambots, because every day I got all sorts of notices of comments added to it that were absolutely nonsensical strings with some links and other junk.
Of course, now that I deleted it, the random crap is just showing up on another strand instead.
Rah.

Another WTFer.... hey we're a great tool for stalking!!!
http://tweetstalk.com/
So, apparently this is specifically designed for exactly ONE purpose... You want to follow someone on Twitter without them knowing you're following them. It's called TweetStalk.
Eh?
This can't end well.

The polls are dropping --- has "change" changed?
So, what do we make of Obama's poll numbers falling off? A callous, cynical population that doesn't appreciate the wonders that Obama so eloquently offers? Frail seniors scared and confused by the huge unfiltered public persona that is Sarah Palin?
No. What's happening is that supporting "change" is irrelevant. You could be completely opposed to someone's plans, and still agree some sort of change needs to be done. You both think something needs to happen, but when they start going their way, that's when you realize they're not aligned with what you thought.
Let me explain... some examples.
I'm holding my hand an inch away from your face. I ask, "Do you want me to MOVE my hand?" You say yes, so I smack you. Are you happy with this? We all agreed we wanted my hand to move. Polls for changing my hand's position were unanimous. See if popularity drops when you get smacked in the face. Obama's administration is certainly doing that.
You go around your office around noon and ask if people would support ordering lunch. Most people say sure, we can get behind a nice, vague, notion of lunch. Everyone has their own ideas. You come back an hour later and hand them all a tuna sandwich on rye with mustard. "I don't understand, everyone supported lunch! This is lunch."
The more vague the common denominator is, the safer and unobjectionable it is.
Do you support change? YES!
Change we can believe in? HOORAY!
Change to the role the federal government plays in how banks and auto companies and American industry operates? Ummmm.....
Do you support having the people who brought you the DMV, the IRS, the VA, and the post office make the medical care you receive "more efficient"? Wait, ya'll have a different sense of what needed to be changed then I do. You weren't thinking what I was when I said okay let's get lunch.
Extreme leftist policies... specific policies.... are contrary to the American spirit, to the immutable laws of economics, and in many cases to the fundamentals of basic logic. Unilaterally puishing companies that produce and taking money from them because they emit carbon when they produce simply does NOT yield job growth. Beating the rich like a pinata may win popularity contests but it doesn't stabilize the system or grow the pot.
Some realized this early, some are coming to it now. The polls are saying we never said we wanted to be smacked in the face.

you know why I like this toothpaste? It doesn't burst into flames.
More on an ad that disturbs me... Charlie Sheen recommends underpants to Michael Jordan because they don't creep up on you. Ummm I don't recall that being a really significant problem, my underwear riding up on me. Unless it's a really old pair or I've been driving for like a day and a half.
But I guess it's hard to sell stuff like that when your product is largely commoditized. I mean, how often can you say "Well, see, ours are SOFT."
I do like the tagless ones though, at least that's a "development" that makes sense.
I also like that my soda doesn't commit crimes.
