Rick Reilly on Michael Jordan’s Hall of Fame speech

This post is really about Rick Reilly’s reaction to Michael Jordan’s Hall of Fame speech, and not so much about the speech itself.
Every once in awhile I like to torture myself by reading a piece written by Reilly.  Rick Reilly of course used to write the back page article for Sports Illustrated, and now writes [...]

Taking the New York Bar Exam…

I’m not really going to write anything about how I did, or how it went because I don’t really want to relive the test.  However, since I’ve been gone for a bit I thought I would talk a bit about the experience.
When I signed up for the test I was placed in the Buffalo region.  [...]

Rev. Wright’s name coming up in the final moments…..

Apparently the Republican Party is going after Obama with Rev. Wright right before election day.  Considering John McCain said the topic was off limits about 7 months ago, I’m shocked to see such a thing.   I’m just kidding, I’m not shocked at all.
“If you think you could ever vote for Barack Obama, consider this: [...]

Palin’s Wardrobe

Oooooh, Palin got $150,000 worth of clothing for the Presidential race.  Does anyone really care?  My problem is that she’s going to give the clothes to charity at the end.  Why????  What is a charity going to do with $15,000 outfits?  The highest priced item you’re going to find at one of those charity drop-offs [...]

Evidence McCain voters are delusional

Listen to these people, they’re so confused they don’t even know who they are any more.  They think they’re a plumber named Joe, who isn’t really a plumber, and has a tax lien against him.
Jeepers, can you imagine all the trouble this country will be in with all these wanna-be unlicensed plumbers running around not [...]

Palin doesn’t approve of robo-calls?

From CNN:
Wearing a gray hooded sweatshirt and standing on a breezy tarmac, Palin said that if she had her way, the McCain campaign and the Republican National Committee would not be flooding battleground states with automated phone calls tying Barack Obama to former radical William Ayers, as they have done over the last week.
Several top [...]

Ohio plumbers united against Joe ‘The Unlicensed Plumber’

Ah, just a funny little news blip, nothing too exciting here:
As if further evidence was needed of the phenomenon that is “Joe the Plumber” (however brief it may be), there comes this e-mail advisory:

Real Toledo Area Plumbers to Hold Press Conference to Express Their Grave Concerns with Senator (John) McCain’s Economic Policies
