AlterNet: The Top 10 Power Brokers of the Religious Right. This features some familiar and not-so-familiar names.

Microsoft iPod rival out by Christmas?!

Microsoft iPod rival will be out by Christmastime, according to sources. As if we consumers don’t already have a vast selection of portable MP3 players to choose from already (Apple’s iPod in all its various flavours, Creative Zen’s line, Dell’s stuff, etc.)! Looks like another attempt at domination.

arsekissing and a sad anniversary

GWB kisses up…err, I mean, he has a lotta heterosexual lurve for Stephen Harper. But of course he would.

I do have one bone to pick with the aforelinked article, though…

Mr. Harper has made it a top priority to improve ties with the United States.

Last I checked, it was George Walker Bush who wouldn’t have much to do with Canada when he first took office waay back in 2001. Of course, at the time, Canada was under Liberal rule; but on the other hand, once Jean Chrétien was out and Paul Martin was in, GWB was seeming a bit more friendly toward the “Great White North” again. ;)

ken lay is dead. one word: karma.

ABC News: Kenneth Lay Dies of Heart Disease at 64

Now don’t you understand man universal law
What you throw out comes back to you, star
Never underestimate those who you scar
Cause karma, karma, karma comes back to you hard

~ Lauryn Hill, “Lost Ones” (Note to self: Take a listen again!)

On the other hand, if there was some sort of conspiracy going on here to keep Ken Lay from serving his life sentence…tsk, tsk.
