Dino "Italian Stallion" Rossi for Govenator of Washington? No Way!
Pictured at right, Dino “Italian Stallion” Rossi – the BIAW Candidate for Washington Governor, with his head up his ass, as usual. After losing a tight race for Governor in 2004, Dino Rossi is back again this year, facing off against incumbent Christine Gregoire. Rossi’s main distinguishment in this campaign is that he seems to…

Sarah Palin For Vice President? I Think Not!
I just can’t believe anyone is taking Sarah Palin seriously any more. In picking Palin for his running mate, it looks like John McCain was trying to appeal to women voters and “just plain folks.” And initially, his strategy appeared to work. It gave him a good boost in the polls. A young, vibrant woman…

George W. Bush – Our Worst President Ever
It’s hard to imagine one man creating so much havoc, but George W. Bush really takes the cake. In just a little under eight years, he’s managed to: Ruin our economy, plunging the United States into the worst recession since the Great Depression; Take us to war against Iraq for no good reason at all…

Corporate Welfare? No Way! Wall Street Bailout Wrong!
I would like to protest the Bush administration’s proposed $700 billion bailout of the financial industry. What Secretary Paulson is asking for is a blank check – no controls, no real plan no nothing. And that, coming from the Bush administration is laughable. Perhaps they can contract out the reconstruction of our financial industry to…

Safeco Insurance Sucks

Bye Bye Sonics – Good Riddance!
So the Seattle Supersonics are off to Oklahoma – what a deal. As far as I’m concerned, it’s for the best. Maybe we can get them to take the Mariners and the Seahawks off our hands as well. Pro sports teams are just not a big turn on for me. The way I see it,…

Metered Bandwidth Will Kill Movie Downloads and Stifle Other New Technology
I was looking at file sizes of Blu-Ray movies today. The average size of 320 current titles was 27 GB – for just the movie alone. You add in all the extras and what not that usually come with a DVD (deleted scenes, extra content, etc) and the size jumps up to an average of…
