Yes its true. It takes an act of congress to get the ad guys play nice with the consumer. Pretty freaking sad if you ask me, but I won’t complain if it passes.

Well done, well done indeed!

Merry Christmas!

Yes, I’m going there. But not for the reasons that you might expect. I’m not going to make this a right vs left, red vs blue, or bears vs packers issue.

I’m going about this from a bit of experience in the not so distant past. My wife and I had been traveling in another state and unfortunately had to take a trip to the emergency room. It was early in the morning when she fell ill. Its happened before and we basically run down to the ER, she gets an IV and we’re good to go in a few hours. We had narrowed down the condition but at 3 in the morning, neither one of us could remember what the heck it was. Its noted in her medical file back here in Des Moines.

Seriously CNN, is this the best that you can do?

In case you are wondering why people no longer look to you for news, this is why. Some blowhole closing his twitter account shouldn’t make the front page of cnn.com.

Living in Iowa, I feel pretty fortunate that we haven’t been hit as bad as other areas of the country.
