Decent McCain Video on Youtube

This guy actually does a good job laying out why he voting for John McCain.

Since people are still giving Obama grief about Ayers

Guilt by association. That is a sorry political tactic when both sides are making claims about the same thing. I am actually starting to get more and more worried about the next thirty days. I keep asking myself when it will all be over.

Why aren't more people talking about this?

Yahoo is reporting that half a million or more gallons of crude was spilled because of hurricane Ike. Ike happened weeks ago and we are just hearing about it now.

Taxing Farts and Burps

This article is absolutely ridiculous. It goes to show two things. One, the United States isn't the only country with politicians lacking common sense. Two, society on a global level needs some big changes.

Interesting Obama Story

If it is cool, awesome. I will admit to being slightly skeptical though.

Interesting Article Concerning Memory

I stumbled across an interesting article about memory on msnbc.com. My concentration at the University of Tennessee is Psychology so I have a decent perspective on the matter. The article has it's merits, but it takes too much of a Cognitive Psychology stance touting it as gospel. I will be the first to admit that the current cognitive psychology model is very appealing. In fact, I currently lean toward following it. The Behaviorist model also deserves a mention though. It has a huge following in the Psychology world.

More Election Absurdity

This picture can speak for itself.

What is wrong with Janet?

Rumors were abound that she was pregnant after she suddenly canceled her first show. Now she has canceled three more. What is wrong with the queen of pop?

Berating Biden about Botox

There is some buzz on the net about the possibility of Joe Biden getting some plastic surgery. Who really cares when it gets down to the meat and potatoes of the election? Let's just say for a second that it is true (it very well may be). Does it have an effect on his ability to govern? I don't see how it would. Does it even say anything about his character? There are millions of Americans who have had some sort of cosmetic work done that would be slightly upset if you said so.

Laser Pointer Crack Down in the UK

How wide spread was this problem? We don't seem to have a major issue with laser pointers on this side of the pond.

Pencil + 13 V of Electricity = Lightsaber?

This is another one of those videos that I run across on the web that is just plain cool. They sharpened a pencil on both ends, sent 13 volts of electricity through and attachment, and then watched the fireworks. Check it out.It is not a bad way to spend a minute and twelve seconds.
