So, during the past few days, I've discovered why buying a house is such a hassle. I've heard people complain about the process many a time, but its just one of those things you have to experience for yourself. The plan as of now is to look for a nice place to rent in Bmore. Rooftop deck is a must. Let me know if you have any leads.
Well, the O's stand at 4-17 as of now. I wish I could say I thought it would be better, but I can't. Bring on the prospects! Make Dave Trembley the bat boy! If Terry Crowley is so knowledgeable about hitting, use him in a pinch.
Subject SWITCH!!!!
Okay I'm watching the Daily Show and their guest is Ken Blackwell, an "author". He also happens to be the former Iowa Secretary of State who received numerous charges of voter disenfranchisement during the 2004 Presidential Election. The book he's hawking is about Obama's 'imperial' presidency. Essentially Mr. Blackwell is comparing the Bush/Obama transition to the Herbert Hoover/Franklin D. Roosevelt switch that occurred amid the struggles of the Great Depression. Today's economic problems are an obvious link to that era, although times now aren't nearly as dire. Blackwell says that Obama will follow in Roosevelt's footsteps in terms of government expansion and increased centralized power. Of course, George W. Bush was himself responsible for an enormous expansion in government, particularly within the Executive Branch. Blackwell should know that everyone hates a hypocrite.
Let me paint you a picture of Ken Blackwell real quick. Basically, he's Sean Hannity/Rush Limbaugh in the body of former NFL linebacker Mike Singletary. It's sad to watch Jon Stewart try to reason with this madcap moron. J Stew lays out logic and facts and this guy just giggles and stutters and spits out talking point bullshit. I get really annoyed with people who complain about the state of the nation under Obama's young presidency. They seem to unconsciously ignore the eight years of bad decisions that occurred before Obama showed up. Those large-scale mistakes and omissions take time to mop up fully. And here is a sobering point: Healthcare may end up being a significant strain on the American economy. That's fair to speculate. But what else was and continues to drain our Treasury? Oh yea, the Iraq war! The only difference is that Healthcare will end up saving lives. The war just ended them. If you don't think that means anything then you are loco. Anyway, Ken Blackwell just made Weal's Words first installment of D'Bag O' Da Blog. Congratulations!
News Flash: The Orioles are recalling Brady Anderson from the MASN broadcasting booth to play for Adam Jones. How dare Jones suck now that I have a Jones jersey! Just my luck.
