Hillary in Presidency in 2008? Between Clinton and Obama, the Democratic party has a guaranteed nightmare just waiting to happen! This has nothing to do with race, gender, creed, etc. This has to do with what these people previous actions have to say.

You can check out Hillarys’ website for all her great details. It is nice to see that she still tries to avoid media outlets and announces via her website. But she will be reaching out via online videos and blogs. At least she panders to the net first, how thoughtful! She wants to use the videos and blogs to get in touch with the people? Maybe she should get in some chat rooms then too!

At least she is in to win and not lose. Her PR camp have her saying the correct words at least.

If she used a president to get her to the NY Senator seat (she was distended since the first Governor of the state was a Clinton, they need another one right), who will she use to get her into the presidency? Anyone notice that as soon as she was sworn in on Jan 3, 2001, you never see her and Bill together, unless it is for her PR benefit? Heck she doesn’t even mention her role as a wife only as a mother on her website.

So what do we learn? Well she “stood” by her man while he cheated on her with a intern. Who of course he did not have sexual relations. YADA YADA YADA.

But of course we all know that clear back into the 70′s this type of thing had been going on. Everyone knew it (including Hillary). She had to keep Billy around so she could further her political aspirations right?

Heck we all know that she kept her promise of bringing more jobs to NY (2000 election promise of a mere 200K jobs). The state lost over 170K in the first 2 years she is on the job. Ooops, I guess she meant, lose not bring. Oh wait, I am sure it was all George E. Pataki fault since he was the republican Governor anyhow!

2008 should be a joyous year to behold!

Not a good time to be shopping at TJ Maxx, Marshalls (and their other chains) apparently.

Apparently the breach involved the computer network that handles all credit & debit cards, checks and returns at its T.J. Maxx, Marshalls, HomeGoods and A.J. Wright stores in the U.S. and Puerto Rico; and its Winners and HomeSense stores in Canada.

The breach may have compromised privileged information about credit and debit card sales in TJX stores, excluding Bob’s Stores, in the United States, Canada and Puerto Rico during 2003 and from mid-May through December 2006.

So if you shopped at one of their “safe” stores you might want to watch your statements.

Here is the full CNN article.
Here is a more detailed article about it and relationship to other data thefts last year from ZDNet.

Definitely not sounding good for customers and retailers. Not to mention since it seems like there is a path of events going on here, it is not about to stop and worse yet, scary what might happen when enough data is collected from all source by the hack team. A critical mass attach of customer information could be coordinated that could effect millions of people.

Colbert being interviewed by O’Reilly what a match up.

Colbert is at the top of his game as usual. Poor Bill did not stand a chance.

“Emulate you, Love and Peace, thats you Bill”
“This is what I love about you Bill, your a giver. You give and give and give!”
“I do fear bears. The giant, marading, godless killing machines.”
“I am doing you Bill. They hate me.” (Its a love thing!)

Who do you love more? Colbert wit or O’Reilly pompous I rule the roost. Bill loves himself and knows that he is right, but do others?

Is that French or not?

I am a soda (pop, cola, what have you) drinker so I see more than my fair share of carbonated water. However, also being a father to a 4.5 year old, I have tried to keep my daughter from this unhealthy habit and as such she does not drink pop.

She drinks her soy milk, loves real fruit juice (the 100% stuff) and fresh fruit. Now I am one for getting kids (and us adults as well) to eat healthier, but does this make since to folks? Fizzy Fruit. Yep thats right carbonated sliced fruit.

Check them out at www.fizzyfruit.com. Is real fruit that unpalatable by some that they need carbonation? Apparently what mother nature forgot to put in her fruit was some “fun and effervescence”. Dang.. so that is what has been missing from my life!

I am sure (other than the soda companies) no one out there can tell me carbonated soda is good for you. Heck hasn’t there been like 39 studies now around the world where they say co2 that is used to carbonate soda (and now fizzy fruit) actually makes bones brittle later on in life? So something good like fruit that should help make our kids big and strong and be fizzy, fun and bone shattering earlier in life.

Nice we they try to blur the lines of good food and crap huh!

Hey maybe they need to make fizzy gummy worms?
