Slug the President?

Senator elect Jim Webb had a confrontation with the President today that made him angry enough that he wanted to hit George W. The President’s offending remark? “How’s your boy?”

Apperantly this innocent sounding comment about Webb’s son, who’s military service incidentally made up the majority of Webb’s election platform, was so offending that he wanted to strike the Commander In Chief.

Now I in NO WAY support any sort of violence toward the President of the United States, it would have been interesting if this jerk had hit George W. It would have been hard for him to be a senator after the Secret Service arrested him. I’m not sure what the penalty is for assaulting the President, but I’m sure it’s steep. I hope the great state of Virgina is proud of electing this man to the Senate – he sure isn’t acting in the way most of us would expect a Senator to act.

On the other hand, maybe we should all follow his lead. I encourage every father out there to give the next guy who asks about your offspring a knuckle sandwich!

Veronica Mars changes her theme song

I started watching Veronica Mars last year for two reasons. The first is the lovely, yet talented Kristen Bell. The second was the theme song.

Just today I read that someone at the show decided to remix the theme song.

The original, like the show, is edgy and unpredictable.

The new version is an overproduced shadow of it’s original self.

This better not be a reflection on the whole show…

UPDATE

Well, apparently the change in the theme song is a reflection on the whole show. Veronica seemed smarter as a high school student than she does as a college freshmen. The dialog seems poor and Kristen’s delivery is weak.

And no, I’m not just angry that she didn’t send me a autographed picture like she promised…

HOA Bullys back down

Looks like the lady that thinks a peace sign is a good christmas decoration is off the hook. The Loma Linda Home Owners Board of Directors has caved in the face of public opposition.

Amazing how bullys scatter like cockroaches when someone exposes them.
