How Do You Spell That?

Someone better talk me out of this quickly...especially since I just got a raise yesterday. Oh, and I get a corporate discount. And my new monitor has an open DVI input.

I honestly have no idea why I'm surprised by this...

Maryland Bill Aims To Put 'DUI' On License Plates

This is the part that was really distubing...

Taylor considers the DUI plate an ounce of prevention because it gives police a license to stop the driver at any time.

"(The bill) will allow (police) to, without probable cause, pull them over and check" their driving records, Taylor said.

Defense attorneys have raised questions as to the specter of possible civil rights and other violations.

So, if you are convicted of a crime, the police can now stop you at ANY TIME and "check" their driving records, just for the heck of it. Maybe we should start a pool to see how fast the Federal court system will strike it down based on Fourth Amendment guidelines.

You remember a while ago when I was lamenting the damage to my 1999 Honda Civic a while back. Now I get to do it for my 2001 Honda Civic. Someone decided to use my bumper again while it was at school. My wife found the damage this afternoon, and since the only place it sat was either in my driveway far from the street or in the college parking lot; you can guess where it happened.

The thing that bother me (besides the impending repair bill which I might not partake in since the damage is small, but the bumper is cracked through) is that it happened in Huntington University's parking lot. A place you would imagine someone would leave a note.

How bad is it when you send out a Press Release like this.

"Now I understand why Dick Cheney keeps asking me to go hunting with him," said Jim Brady. "I had a friend once who accidentally shot pellets into his dog - and I thought he was an idiot."

No concern for the person that was shot. No comment about how this might have been avoided, etc, etc.

Here's my attempt at a press release in kind....

To: National Desk

HUNTINGTON, Feb. 12 /Woogie Newswire/ -- Brian Wohlgemuth comments today on the Press Release by the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence.

"Jim & Sarah Brady. No one gives a rats ass what you have to say, I think your 15 minutes were up sometime around 1994. Thank God your useless "feel good" weapons ban has expired."

Brian Wohlgemuth also said "James Brady pushed through a totally useless assault weapons ban once. And I thought he was an idiot back then...."

BTW, Cheney should lose his Hunting License for a long time for doing something that stupid. So should his friend.

Just like the Paul Wellstone Memorial Campaign Rally, a number of brilliant politicians and entertainers decided to take pot shots at Bush during Coretta Scott King's funeral.

I've been to memorial services, I've been to memorial services of people who have had lots of friends and family in attendence. And while I haven't been to a memorial service of the magnitude of Coretta Scott King's, I'm sure that her family is feeling the pain and sorrow of losing a dear family member. What I am reasonably sure about is how much of a tool people look like when they start spouting off about various topics besides the dead body that is usually within twenty feet of their vicinity.

I could understand if it was her main mission in life to bash George Bush, that speakers would try to carry on her message. But it wasn't. And neither was it the time to put the feelings of family and friends aside for political gain.

Take Stevie Wonder's top ten songs, and then let him only play 30 seconds of each in a lame montage wher he only sings the first couple of verses, then hands off to some plastic hack.

The only amusing part of Pre-Game is to watch ABC have their normal amount of screwups onscreen.
