March 31, 2005

Terri Schiavo has died thirteen days after the feeding tube was removed and numerous last minute court battles nthat held the nation hostage.

Bush’s Exaggerations Continue…

March 30, 2005

As the resident right-wing cynic of this left-wing president (Yes, I called him left wing – My plans are to write about how Bush is a liberal in the next few weeks), I’d like to point out one of David Nick’s entries about Bush’s tack on immigration. Davis is a guest writer here, but I [...]

MySQL 5 to Release This Summer

March 30, 2005

MySQL 5 has reached beta status and apparently is filing all the backlogged demands in one foul swoop. Stored Procedures and triggers are some of the key Enterprise level features available with the Oracles and SQL Servers of the world but so far lacking in all current versions of MySQL.

Church Humor

March 28, 2005

A little bit of church humor for you. A pastor in New Jersey this week put out an announcement regarding choir practice. The announcement said, effectively:

More on Schiavo

March 26, 2005

I’m fired up on this topic. I’m pissed off that my side of the aisle is behaving the way it is. I need to show the false thinking for what it is and hopefully someone will hear my point and not discount me as some lefty junkie.
