Can’t wait to get my blogging for the day through so I can play with my new phone.
* And it looks like my new toy might already be obsolete — I thought 1 GHz inside your pocket was remarkable, but Motorola forecasts 2 GHz in smartphones by the end of the year. (A lot of people still have desktop computers with single-core processors of 2 GHz or slower.)

Almost the entirety of Scott’s media buys have been about how he wants Florida to have an SB 1070.
* Gee, I bet she’s just waiting on pins and needles for his endorsement.
* Central banksters usually are given to lying, cheating, scheming and mendacity. So on the rare occasions they tell the truth, I cherish it.
