Laterna Nacht is tonight at the German Immersion school. After singing some songs, everyone marches around the school with their lanterns. It's quite a sight. Weather looks to be mild.
Brett Favre and the Jets beat the Patriots last night. I think the Pats defense is starting to get old. Their secondary sucks. Jets are on top of the division now. That draft pick for the Packers is looking better and better!
It's been said that a bailout for the auto industry is really a bailout for the union. I agree. Unless clear concessions are made and a clear business plan presented, I would not offer up anything. Let them go chapter 11.
Assnozzles.
I've said it before . . . maybe Obama will govern from the middle. I doubt it. Not because he may not want to but the pressure from Pelosi and the rest of Jurassic park, and the MoveOn crowd, will just be too great. Here in Wisconsin, we are royally screwed. As the king of blow holes, K-Man, put it, these people are too stupid to realize they're stupid. The dems, that is. The initiatives that are about to be pushed through will be staggering.
This is funny:
Anyone know what happened to Dan Diebert and the Dan and Nicole show?
I won last week's football picking challenge over at Ick's Corner. Please, please . . . get up. No need to bow.
J Gravelle must have annoyed the folks over at the UrinalSentinal so much and for so long that they gave him a community columnist job to get him to shut up already. Obviously he couldn't have paid anyone off judging by his $29 Sam's Club sport coats he wears. Congratulations, Mr. Gravelle.
Kanye West is waaaaaaay full of himself.
I would actually disagree and say that Timberlake has done more to reinvent the male solo act than has anyone else. Plus, here's a guy who . . . uh . . . tapped Britney, Scarlett, and now Jessica Biel. Kanye can't make that claim.
Have a great weekend everyone!

Packers vs Vikings
A 52 yard field away from winning. Doesn't matter who the kicker is, that's not a high percentage kick. It was close. Within 2 yards. But, as we know, close only counts with dirty bombs, horse shoes, and silent but deadlies. Sure, Crosby should have made the kick. More than that, though, McCarthy should have put his Magic 8 Ball away and called some real plays. How about that running game, Mike? Maybe you should do something to slow that rush, Mike. Rodgers was hit more often than Paris Hilton, pressured more than Kirstie Ally on a new diet plan. Rodgers was the side beef for the front four Balboa's of the Viqueens. What happened? In the first game we didn't hear Allen's name at all. This game, his name was called more than Lindsay Lohan's at the clinic. If you were like me, you'd be smart and wonderful, and you'd be wondering where the defense went. Some where along the way the defense had a Southwest Airlines moment. You know, "want to get away?" Well, they did go away. Some place in their minds quiet and warm. Not purple. The defensive line needed some Tim Allen strength gap spackle mixed in with a little Emeril BAM! Instead, they were playing a bad game of Red Rover with Petersen. Mean while, Nick Barnett is wearing a t shirt that reads: I Went to the Metrodome and all I Got Was his Lousy Torn ACL". Out for the season. Great. The sieve sprung a leak.
It makes sense.
One good thing, we can finally lay to rest the China Doll stuff about Rodgers. I'll see your broken pinky and raise you a separated shoulder. I win. Rodgers is the man.
In the end, I blame this one on McCarthy. A coach is supposed to study films of the other teams. Learn it's strengths. Exploit it's weaknesses. Hey, Mike . . . we're the team in green and gold.
Still, in spite of Petersen gaining almost 200 yards, we were 6 feet away from winning. In any other game, a team would win 52 to nothing with that kind of stat. Let's face it, Frerotte blows. He blows chunks. We can thank him for keeping the game as close as it was.
Still, I'm throwing away my purple crayons.

Cool gadgets
3M on Wednesday announced the release of its first handheld digital projector, the MPro110, meant for use in business, entertainment and field applications. Capable of projecting images between 6 and 50 inches, the MPro110 is just 4.5 inches long but can still output a 1280x768 resolution. 3M points out its new mini projector is the only one on the market with an integrated VGA port. The Liquid Crystal on Silicon (LCoS) projector can display content from connected personal multimedia devices such as digital cameras and certain MP3 players.
The LED light source provides 10,000 hours of life, does not require a fan for cooling and has no need for a lamp replacement. The MPro110 uses a built-in rechargeable lithium ion battery that lasts between 40 and 60 minutes, according to 3M. The 3M MPro110 is now available for purchase in Canada at major retailers, priced at just about $360. A US release date hasn't been mentioned.
Wish I needed it.

Final election thoughts part 2
One thing to think about . . .
In spite of the huge push by ACORN, by musicians, by hollywood, by the press, and in spite of a very unpopular president, an ongoing unpopular war, and bad economy, McCain and Palin were close. Percentage wise, democrats did better than republicans and that was the difference.
I've read where some believe McCain lost with his pick of Palin. Of course, this comes from lefty bloggers who seem to understand little of how the right thinks and operates. Let's say John picks Leiberman, or Pawlenty. Do you really think he would have done as well as he did? Do you think Joe or Tim would have been drawing those crowds? Uh, no. Not even close.
Of course, for the left that just means we're all stupid, gun tottin' bible thumpers if we think Palin was a good choice for VP. I say it shows your ignorance and inability to get past the lemming talk of the left. Believe what the news tells you, little lemmings. Don't have independent thought!
One blogger wrote that the next republican candidate cannot win if he/she doesn't embrace climate change. Wow. That gets double retard points. First, as a collective, we question whether man creates the seasons. Second, as a collective, we recognize that even if there's the possibility of the chance that maybe man causes . . . seasons . . . that it's not up to the US, ALONE, to do something about it. Lastly, as a collective, even if there is the possibility . . . you get it . . . there's a smart way to go about emission reduction. It's not cap and trade. It's not carbon play money. It's not fluorescent light bulb mandates.
Besides, does anyone really believe in man made seasons anymore? It's been so thoroughly debunked, the models flawed, the consensus not, and new reports saying it ain't so, that I figured the only one carping about it anymore was Gore. Much to most people's amusement. The most accurate of readings . . . satellites from above and robot probes in the oceans, have completely obliterated model suggestions.
Believing in man made seasons, to me, is akin to believing in the embryonic stem cell research hype.
Uh oh.
Despite the promise of "change", an unpopular president, a war, a tanking economy, huge push for democratic turn out, and a biased media, McCain did pretty good.
I feel pretty good.

Fox Network Announcement
In response to Obama's complaint that FOX News doesn't show enough Black and Hispanic people on their network, FOX has announced that they will now air ' America's Most Wanted' TWICE a day.
Oh, it's funny. Not sure where it came from.

The Steakhouse Mushroom Swiss Burger
While nothing compares to home grilling, when it comes to a fat, juicy burger, Burger King is the best. Their new Steakhouse burger raises the bar a notch. While it's still a fast food burger, it's big, tasty, and juicy. The mushrooms and swiss make it a formidable burger.
My new favorite burger.
Sucker is expensive, though. I won't be getting too many of these.

Do we get it now?
Gas was, what? Close to $5 a gallon this past summer? As a result, people scaled back. They travelled less, they got rid of their SUV's. They conserved. I believe the numbers are between 5% and 10% the reduction in consumption.
Look at what happened.
Gas is at a low we haven't seen in years!
That's good. Conservation is good. But, the point is, look at how the market reacted.
Now, imagine what would happen if we announced we're going to start drilling for more of our own oil.
Can you hear me now?

Final thoughts about the election
I glossed over this in a comment, but I do think it's incredible that an african american worked his way all the way to the Whitehouse. It's a testiment of what America is all about. Education, desire, work, and dedication. Obama wasn't born with a silver spoon in his mouth. He worked. He strived. He accomplished. Hopefully his story will be one of inspiration and example to many young people.
But to think that his victory is some how racially healing is over reaching. Crime won't go down in the inner city. Truancy won't suddenly reduce. Rap lyrics won't suddenly become positive in its message.
I'd like to think Obama will inspire some to understand that to get ahead in this country means to stay in school, make good decisions, and apply yourself. Not to think that the government will provide for you. Pheisty had an excellent post about the speakers at the Democratic convention and that none of them mentioned the great government programs that helped them get ahead. No. They all spoke of dreams and hard work.
Unquestionably, having an african american as president looks good to the rest of the world. America has suddenly become progressive. As far as that goes, I don't care. Question is, will Obama command respect from other country's leaders?
As for McCain, we should remember he wasn't that far off from Obama on many issues. If McCain had won, we would have had a republican president and a democratic congress. I do think the country would have become stagnant. McCain lost, and Hillary lost, in some part because many were done with Clinton and Bush.
Speaking of Hillary, I'll also give Obama kudos for winning the nod over her. Many felt she was a shoo in. The heir to the throne. Going up against and defeating the Clinton machine was quit an accomplishment.
Anyway, as I also mentioned in a post, I was shocked to see McCain constantly winning primaries. I liked MCain as an Arizona senator, but not as presidential candidate. Of the bunch, I liked Huckabee. Romney was too plastic, Gulianni was too centrist, and Thompson was too boring. My support for McCain was simply a resignation of the nominee.
Then came Sarah. A conservative. A babe. Me likee. After all that has happened, I still think Sarah was a smart choice. She energized the base to a point where she was drawing bigger crowds than McCain himself. She threw the left and the press in to full panic mode. The attacks were immediate. No surprise. But the initial attacks were a bunch of lies. Even now, after the election, the lies continue. Fallout in the ranks? No one knows for sure. Each story is being debunked. For all we know, the leak isn't from within.
If there were any surprises on election night, it came from conservative wins. Too few, to be sure, but some solace to the party.
As for the party, I think they're finally getting the message. Less government. More local power. Individual liberty. Less spending. Lower taxes. Free market. Don't be afraid of these values. Embrace them. Campaign on them.
What am I afraid of? National security. Foreign policy. Environmental regulations. Liberal judges. To a degree, we can be thankful our economy is down as it severely limits what the new administration can do as far as raising taxes or increasing spending is concerned. That's an incredibly dopey thing to say, I know. Many would prefer the economy to be flourishing. But, that would be a sure path to spending nirvana.
It appears Obama might be fiscally central. This may not bode well with Pelosi and the rest of Jurassic park. But, I'm actually somewhat confident the economy will turn around.
With all this said, I'm ready to move on and embrace our new president. I'll be watchful. I'll be critical. But, I'll be fair. I've given nods to both Dole and Barrett when I thought they've deserved it. I can do the same for Obama.
Locally, I'm not so optimistic.

Friday Doughnut Holes
I paid 2.19 for gas this morning. Amazing. I think Belling said we would never see gas under $3 again. Oops.
Winter is on the way. Bummer.
Going home in the dark is so much different than when it's light out. I get home. I put my comfies on.
I watched a part of the Thursday night game on my computer. Stupid Browns. I'm already a pick down in the pool.
It's Friday! No plans! The wife is going out so I get to spend the night with my girlie. Hmm. Maybe if the wife has a few . . .
Assnozzles.
Nick's taking a vacation from blogging. A month, he says. Yeah right. First article he sees about tasers and he'll be furiously typing away.
This past Tuesday, Drinking Right assembled again. The Papa's election was held and, do do do dooooo! Fred won!! Fred, ever the orator, said this in his acceptance speech:
"Thanks. I'm leaving."
Inspiring.
Party hat guy was no where to be found. Likely his girl friend wouldn't let him go out and play.
Ally closed up shop . . . again. Busy girl.
Flyboy continues to insult me. I never noticed how short he was.
Milwaukee was one of the cities featured on Speeders last night. The cop stopped two kids from Chicago. Ha!
Gus Frerotte starts for the VIkings. Hope he brings some mouthwash. He's gonna be eating a lot of dirt.
Have a great weekend!

Whaddaya mean, not the Messiah?!
Anticipation was high, and now so is expectation. So much so, face-lifted Pelosi has to issue statements telling everyone that "change" may come slowly. And that people should be patient. Of the expectations . . .
Alderman in Chicago are expecting cash. Money for their districts.
Supporters and money raisers in Pennsylvania are waiting to see how they will benefit. Posibly as part of his administration.
African communities believe they will prosper as a result of Barack becoming President.
Even on an individual level, many believe Obama will help them prosper.
MoveOn.org, and other far left demoncrats, will surely pressure Pelosi to pressure Obama to govern in a manner they see fit.
All the while, moderate democrats and republicans and others with brains will do what they can to buffer any bold moves.
The Whole World's Watching, Obama.

The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,

Oh, man. That made my morning.

Roy Jones Jr
Geez. I don't think I've ever blogged about boxing except to ridicule it in the Olympics. I used to follow it pretty closely. Of course, it used to be a respectable sport. That ended a long time ago. Ever since Lenox, cheater pants, Lewis won the heavyweight title, I've gotten away from it.
Part of the reason, as indicated by the Olympics, is that the boxers are just a bunch of thugs. No skill, no class, no personality, no tactics. Just mug and wail.
These days, the ring is an octagon and the fighters are mixed martial arts or ultimate fighters. It takes ring fighting to a whole new level. It's not for everybody. Even boxing fans. But, it has gained in popularity.
Anyway, if you were to ask me who I thought the greatest boxer is of all time, I would have difficulty choosing between Roy Jones Jr and Muhammad Ali. Jones certainly attained far more than Ali. Yet, Ali was a master craftsman in the ring. I suppose if I imagine the two of them fighting . . . all things being equal I think Jones would win.
Well, like Ali did after retirement, Jones is about to enter the ring again. This Saturday he faces super middle weight champion, 36 year old Joe Calzaghe. A boxer who has dominated the weight class for the last 10 years and wants to retire after this fight.
Never heard of him.
Jones hasn't had the best last several years losing and being knocked out by opponents. Still, he's got mad skillz and belts in four different weight categories.
Calzaghe is unbeaten in 45 fights and recently beat Bernard Hopkins, another formidable fighter.
Interestingly, this fight has no title belt. Says a lot for Jones who at one time wouldn't have considered anything less than a title fight. Whether in defense or challenge.
Who will win? I've watched clips of Joe and I think he's a good match for Roy's style of fighting. Roy can win. But, he'll need to dig deep, establish early, and use his counter punching skills like he's never used them before.
Funny. As off the charts as boxing is, this match is still pay per view. Stupid.

What did I say?
Dick Morris:
Dear Fellow American,
Now that Barack Obama has won the election, one thing is certain... he will preside over the largest expansion of the government's role in the economy since the 1930s -- with enormous consequences for your investments.
This "New New Deal," as some Democrats are already calling it, may well have the same result as the original one: to turn a sharp, painful recession into a long Depression.
Will that set the stage for a GOP president in 2012 -- the way '70s stagflation under Jimmy Carter set the stage for Ronald Reagan? I doubt it. More likely, Obama will be able to parlay the hard economic times into a second term.
How? The same way FDR did… by blaming everything that happens on his watch on his predecessors. The worse things get, the more the Obamacrats will blame it on "eight years of Republican deregulation, tax cuts and greed," calling for even more government intervention as the solution.
And the media, of course, will back them up.
Sarah Palin vs Hillary Clinton 2012
Think of that, would ya!
Hillary will be 65 then. While 72 is obviously older, I wonder how many will think her too old to be president?
You know what? While the thought of it makes me verp, I hope Palin starts campaigning right away.

Oh, it will still be Bush's fault
One thing I keep hearing as a piece of good news is that things will finally not be Bush's fault.
Are you f*cking joking?
If there is a backlash, it will have to come completely and decisively from the voters. Obama will get HUGE passes as EVERYTHING will continue to be Bush's fault.
Proof?
Clinton. There's a lot that can be pinned on the Clinton years. A lot. But, there ain't a liberal worth his granola that will admit it. Neither will the press.
No, my friends, Bush bashing will go on, and on, and on, and on.

We're screwed
If nothing else, one can always turn to the sanity of local government to help buffer things on the national level. After all, we're closer to government and representatives are a bit more vulnerable.
This is where I'm particularly at a loss. Obama is one thing. Here in Wisconsin, we're screwed. This state has lost all perspective on politics and government. At JSonline there's a poll asking people if you think we'll be better off in 4 years . . .
It's 60 to 40 percent NO!!! WTF?!?!
Now, the day isn't over. That could well change. But there's close to 9000 votes on it already. Are you kidding me? What is wrong with people?
The Dems now control everything in this state, and are we going to pay for it.
Taxes. Raised. A lot. All levels, across the board.
School choice. Say good bye.
Government healthcare. Say hello.
Rail initiatives. Say hello.
Paired with national democrats, businesses will be regulated and taxed.
Jobs? Say good bye.
Unemployment. Up. A lot.
The only good news is that Wisconsin democrats will over reach. I'm sure they're slobbering with power right now. They won't know how to contain themselves and will take this state right in to the toilet. I would hope the backlash would be huge.
Congratulations Wisconsin. Hope you're happy.

The only good news is that Wisconsin democrats will over reach. I'm sure they're slobbering with power right now. They won't know how to contain themselves and will take this state right in to the toilet. I would hope the backlash would be huge.
Congratulations Wisconsin. Hope you're happy.
