Random Thoughts

  • Texas Instruments (TXN)narrows their targets after the bell.  Down over a percent as I type.
  • Oil in a freefall, maybe heading to $0.  Real estate in a freefall, maybe heading to $0.  But the silver lining is this is at least we'll be able to afford to live in our Hummers.
  • Rudy Giuliani remembers 9/11.  Very touching.
  • If you're looking for a side-by-side video comparison of The Path to 9/11 movie pre-edits and post-edits, check out Allahpundit here.
  • A double-header on MNF?  Amazing!  Too many TV choices between MNF, The Path to 9/11 and Vanished.
  • Remember when Texas Instruments used to make those cool calculators?  Do they still do that?
  • Miami Dolphins cheerleaders website updated.  So you know.
  • President Bush will interupt part 2 of The Path of 9/11 with a speech tonight, where he will say that the war on terror is the "struggle for civilization."
  • For the year that I've been a Netflix member, I have visited a Blockbuster video store only once.  Love NFLX.  The company not the stock.
  • Go say "Happy Birthday" to Kim.
  • If we're in a "struggle for civilization," then I want Arnold Schwarzenegger as my President.  Have they changed the law yet about a foreign born being President?
  • Do schools allow kids to bring calculators into math class?  That was a no-no back when those strict disciplinarians made me memorize the multiplication tables.
  • Just in case the second half of The Path to 9/11 or the late NFL game gets a little boring, amuse your party guests with this tidbit.  Devo bassist Gerry Casale has a band Jihad Jerry & the Evil-Doers.  Check out the video "Army Girls Gone Wild" and make sure to check out that new album in stores 9/12, "Mine Is Not A Holy War."  Kind of weird.  But in a Devo-weird kind of way.
