Important breaking news!

I saw this linked over at mefi, and it made me laugh after a long night o' work. Check out the transcript here....

THE PRESIDENT: I'm hungry and I'm going to order some ribs.

Q What would you like?

THE PRESIDENT: Whatever you think I'd like.

THE PRESIDENT: Stretch, thank you, this is not a press conference. This is my chance to help this lady put some money in her pocket. Let me explain how the economy works.

Return from the dead...

I've been ignoring this site for too long, letting work and more work get in the way. But that's okay, since it is time to get back into the saddle. Not that I'm promising much, but there are lots of things that I would like to do here if I can find the time. (I made sure not to have the blog as a New Years Resolution, since that would practically guarantee that nothing would ever happen.)

Anyway, more to come soon. Especially after I upgrade things around here a bit.
