The auto companies are asking for billions and billions of our dollars.  This money is understandably coming with some strings attached.  If the automakers don’t like it, they don’t have to take the money. Under Rick Wagoner’s tenure as CEO, GM’s market cap has gone down 90% and they’ve lost $73 billion.  He was doing a bad job running the company, and deserved to be...

I don’t know how the North Denver News is suddenly breaking big entertainment stories, but this is pretty interesting: Julianne Moore has been cast as Hillary Clinton in new film “Special Relationship”. The actress will star opposite Dennis Quaid — who will play Hillary’s husband, ex-U.S. President Bill Clinton — in the movie which will show how Bill’s...

In lieu of a birthday card dad, here’s a video of you disco dancing with your girlfriend.  Don’t tell mom. (He probably would have preferred a paper card, but this video actually took me longer than it would have taken me to buy and mail a card, so I think the extra effort should be appreciated.)

For the record, I've never done heroin
Got some feedback from the parental units — apparently they don’t like it when I talk about what it’s like to be a junkie. I thought it was pretty obvious that I was joking when I wrote “I am a hardcore heroin user,” but in case any future employers are reading this, let me state for the record:  I have never done heroin. I have never even once considered doing...

(via thewordunheard:unicornfandance) kaytee: This is absolutely infuriating. I can see why this is offensive, but it does beg the question: how do you tell your girlfriend she’s getting fat without upsetting her?  Or should you just keep your mouth shut if you know what’s good for you? (And by the way, this is hypothetical in my case, because Kat is a total gym nut right now.)

Obama filled out an NCAA bracket? How dare he!
This President should be doing nothing but sitting in a quiet room thinking about the economy 24/7.  How dare he take 15 minutes out of his schedule to fill out an NCAA bracket? The economy needs Obama’s completely undivided attention.  How are we supposed to fix this crisis if he insists on constantly taking breaks to pick sporting contests, give interviews, eat, sleep, bathe himself and...

Well, so much for that case
About 30 seconds after my last post they called us back into the courtroom. Six out of 18 of us were going to be picked for the jury. They didn’t want me. I didn’t even get a reason why. I can’t help feeling a little rejected. Although I am relieved that I’m not going to have to send some poor dude to jail for selling twenty bucks worth of smack to an undercover...

Still at jury duty
No laptop today because I’m actually in court but I can still blog via Blackberry. They questioned us for an hour. I forgot to tell them about the time I was 17 and got arrested on Spring Break in Destin, FL for having a fake ID. That incident made me horribly biased against corrupt Southern small-town cops. I wonder if NYPD has any officers like that. Another issue - just like the...

Sat in a room from 9 til 12:30 farting around on the interwebs with my laptop and the free Wi-Fi connection.  Spent my hour and a half lunch break at a restaurant in Chinatown reading the paper.  Forty five minutes after I got back from lunch they pulled 65 of us from the waiting room into a courtroom.  The judge talked to us for a while, then they picked 18 names out of a hat to be questioned by...

Jury duty is pretty uneventful so far. But I hope if I get assigned to a trial where the defendant pops a boner on the stand that the prosecutor has a zinger as good as this one.
