Ignorance Fuel’s America

So, I thought there would be some backlash because of the election, but I didn’t think I would see that within my circle of really close friends.

I get a text message from a close friend of mine that reads:
“If 12 of them can’t run a McDonalds, what makes Americans think one can run the country?”

Are you serious? McCain supporters are so mad that a black man won? American’s Spoke. Bush has done enough damage, and it is time for Change! Weather or not Obama brings that change to the American people, we don’t want to continue with the Political party game of the Republicans. It was a landslide election, one that I’m sure will go down in the history books.

American’s spoke, don’t be an idiot racist.

Barack Obama Wins US Presidency

Last night around 11pm all the major networks announced that Senator Barack Obama had won the election. Soon after Senator McCain conceded. There were no crazy partisan court hearings, just a simple election. This is your chance to talk about it and what it means for the future of our nation.

Oh no..

Political Blog?

adonis — Thu, 23 Oct 2008 00:07:35 +0000

I haven’t been posting many blogs, about my life, or drama, or rules, or other cool things, that many of you are use to reading, instead I have been some what political.

I have just gotten about ninty email asking me what is the deal with my new political ambitions. No one likes a political blog, and I can’t blame you. I don’t like political blogs myself, so with that being said, I’ll answer the question:

NO! This is not, and will not, ever be a political blog!

I’m very sorry for not being more dramatic in my personal life, but if more of you would send in your drama, I would have more things to post.

I for one can’t wait for the election to be over with… so.. who are you voting for?

Until next time.

Your Tax Dollars at Work: iPhones for Congress

adonis — Wed, 22 Oct 2008 23:55:38 +0000

Right now, the dudes responsible for bailout bills, freedom fries and like, laws I think, carry the standard corporate drone equipment: BlackBerrys. To be precise, House of Representatives members and their staffs have about 8200 BlackBerrys between them. But for a few of the fancier ones, that’s not good enough. They want iPhones.

So the Chief Administrative Office is doing a trial run to decide whether or not it’s worth setting up the necessary infrastructure, which wouldn’t be cheap or easy, since right now everything runs on incompatible BlackBerry Enterprise Servers. If a House member opt for an iPhone, they would have to pay for it out of their Member’s Representational Allowance, though CAO would still have to handle and pay for everything on the admin side.

If accepted, iPhones would be offered to incoming House members in January (would it come pre-loaded with the Obama app for Dems??). It would be something a symbolic blow to RIM—just a day after Steve Jobs gloated that Apple has beaten them—since since this is the first chip at the BlackBerry’s ubiquity on the Hill. In D.C., whether you’re a Democrat or Republican, you’re on a BlackBerry. For now, anyway.

Almost Ready…

I read an interesting blog the other day, and it sort of inspired me to restart this domain, but use it as a blog instead of a Wiki site.

I hope to open the blog up to allow anyone to post blogs, and anyone to submit rants.

I think that no matter which group in the gay world you live in, there’s something about how the other live that just pisses you off. Why not have a website designed to sort those issues out?

Sick around, this blog is almost ready to handle such a task.

reflection

adonis — Thu, 18 Sep 2008 00:28:22 +0000

I’ve recently had a lot of time to reflect on my life. I really feel like I am much farther behind where I would really like to be. Perhaps it’s because I have a lot of free time on my hands?

I feel like, each day I wake up with a big idea, that by the end of the day seems either fruitless or forgotten.

Even if I keep myself occupied; I feel like I’ve done nothing.

I wish my doctor would let me ride a bike.

I wish I had some friends with no life, who could go camping for weeks at a time with me.

I’ve taken a long walk, around where I grew up, I see things that were, and wonder what I could have done differently.

Now, this is turning into rambeling, so I think I will stop, and ope to come up with something with more content, and less ramble.
