Rooting Around de Tubes
![]()
Rooting around the tubes as I sometimes do, I though I’d share some of the revelry, pain and idiocy around the blogosphere.
Shall we dance? Well, by golly, I think we should.
- Massachusetts passed the country’s first law requiring adults to get health insurance in April, 2006. In the past 14 months, it has taken several steps toward covering its 372,000 uninsured residents (about 6 percent of its population). If you don’t have the dough, how can you afford it? This is my question.
- Malia saw a man with a monkey on his back. On what I believe is a
Harley-Davidson.Yamaha. This is funny. - Obama wins the money race this quarter. When’s the election? Oh, yeah, November 2008. This is a money race more than it’s a political race. No offense to Obama, I’m just tired of it always being about the Benjamin’s.
- Ric Romero states the obvious. About cheaper alternatives to the IPhone. Yeah, I cheated. It’s from Fark.
- If I haven’t said it recently, I adore Tennessee Jed.
- What’s GOP Sen. Robert Lugar talking about? You better read it. He’s wanting an “orderly” withdrawal from Iraq.
- More blogs at traditional news outlets. This time, The City Paper in Nashville is jumping on the blogosphere freight train with several posts since Monday. Of course, I’ve been reading Political Animals. I kinda like the name.
- Southern Beale makes several good points about the UK Terror Scare.
- An anatomy of grief over the loss of a beloved sibling. My friend, Freezertroll, talks about a painful anniversary.
Time for a new week, but I actually have Wednesday off. First holiday in a long time. So it is of the good.
And I’m spending part of the day with Big Daddy. Which is of the better.

Disappointing news from Massachusetts. Insurance companies have way too much power and need a boot stuffed up their collective ass. Fascism is corporate control of government. Writing law that forces citizens to give their money to a particular industry is the textbook definition of Fascism.
“$219 penalty”?
Jesus. We need national health care that takes the profit out of the industry. It’s just like Drugs, take the profit out of it and the bad people will go away.
I’m just pleased to be considered “Groovy and Sexy”.
Hell, I need to put you in politics and in the East.
Workings of a late night screwing around the template.
But Groovy and Sexy is a good place to be.
Obama’s fund raising is impressive until you realize a couple in Okalhoma achieved the same feat by purchasing a winning Powerball ticket last week taking home over 33 million dollars in one day.

That’s for fools, speculators, and idiots named Bill Frist.
FYI, I think that is a Yamaha, not a Harley Davidson.
Kinda makes me want a monkey though.
Well, Jackson, I suck.
I want a Vespa. Not so savvy on anything else. Will Edit.
No, I am the one who sucks. I pay WAY too much attention to motorcycles.
Nope.
Squirrel Queen says No to a Vespa.
***I will have one.***
And I dig motorcycles. I just know Harleys because of the sound and other bikes are, you know, “other bikes.”
But A Vespa is not a motorcyle. I just would feel all Audrey Hepburn on one.
We were all so focused on the monkey, I didn’t even think to note what type of ‘cycle he was ridin’ on! I sorta know motorcycles as my Dad drove them back in the day but in that pic, I couldn’t be sure if it was Harley or not either.
A friend of mine accidentally won two eBay auctions for Vespas, so now he’s got (or had) two scooters.
