"Adrian Mars says: "Holographic storage is essentially writing images - holograms - into a sugar cube-sized block.

BBC NEWS | Europe | Spanish vote on EU constitution
I am very excited to see the fervor going in in Spain about ratifying the EU Constitution. Its no fun with the US and China as the only super powers, and I think we are seeing the negative impact it is having on our country. I was listening to NPR yesterday, and they were broadcasting a story about some wreched conservative convention, and one thing that this guy said made me think. He was speaking about the Democratic party and he said, "let this also be a warning. A warning to what happens to a party once it begins to view dominance as entitlement" or something of that sort. He was simply saying that the biggest mistake the Democrats made was the mindset that they belonged in power. When I look at the politics of the United States, I hope that the EU stands up to us more and more in the near future. It will be good for us.

Home shopping begins
2 North Granby ($$$$)
And man let me tell you, I sure did pick the expensive end of town. Starting off our day in historic Richmond district, Church Hill, we worked our way west to the Fan. Church Hill actually encompasses the original settlement of Richmond from way back in the day. I couldn't really find the "good" part of the town, though my friends assure me that it exists.
On an empty belly we worked our way west to the Fan and fell in love with houses completely too expensive for my own good. A man can dream, can't he?
Next time maybe I'll start somewhere in the middle.

The Republican 100 Year Conspiracy
I was thinking about the ebb and flow of politics in this country. Now im not formally schooled in the finer details of our government and its idiocrasies over the years, but the thought occured to me that the republicans have been planning this all along.
Damn them and their Direct Mail. Why couldn't the democrats be the first ones to create spam?
