Presidential Ringtones

If you’re into the whole personalized ringtone thing here are some Presidentially-inspired ones. The best one is John Edwards’, and the weirdest one is Rep. Dennis Kucinich’s.
I’m a little bummed, my man didn’t get one.

Props to the Ronulans; Ron Paul Rakes It In

Ragging on Rep. Ron Paul supporters has been my hobby the last week. He doesn’t do very well in political polls, but his supporters are willing to dig into their pockets:
Today, Nov. 5, marks not only Paul’s best fundraising haul in a single day — more than $2.5 million by 6 p.m. EST — but […]

Man of the South, Thompson Talks Race

While campaigning in New Hampshire Fred Thompson took on American race relations with the sober seriousness that’s set him apart from the rest of the Republican Presidential field:
“Looking back upon that now, I know that there were an awful lot of people who viewed an awful lot of things through the wrong prism,” he said […]

Colbert Out

Stephen Colbert dropped out before I could oppose him:
Stephen Colbert has dropped his bid for the White House.
His announcement came after the South Carolina Democratic Executive Council voted last week to keep the host of “The Colbert Report” off the state’s primary ballot. The vote was 13-3.
Colbert poses as a conservative talk-show host on […]

Green is Universally Stupid

Filed under Sports, Media

NBC’s Football Night in America is in the dark. Their symbolic measure will save as much electricity to power the average American house for a month. I notice they didn’t turn off the bright lighted Toyota sign.
This all part of NBC Universal’s “Green is Universal” campaign. And I thought Earth Day made me nauseous. […]

Free: The 21st Century Music Model

Filed under Music

Radiohead practically gave their newest album away. Saul Williams did it too. Now, Big Head Todd and the Monsters takes the free music idea a little farther. Sign up on the band’s mailing list and you’ll get an advance copy of their new album in the mail. No payment mentioned at all.
I’ve been on their […]

Because I Can

Filed under Wisconsin

Here’s an obligatory link to the Sheboygan Police Department.
Why?
Because I can. And if Sheboygan officials get ticked they can come to Virginia and tell me to stop.
The World Wide Web is over 10 years old. You’d think by now people would understand the concept of a link.
And go visit Sheboygan Shenanigans that started this all.

At Least 13 People Love Me

TAM is a finalist in the 2007 Weblog Awards. In the Best of the Top 501-1000 I’m facing stiff competition including one of my favorite weblogs, Betsy’s Page.
I think I’ve done a good job the last year. I followed Mark Green in the last few days of his campaign and ragged on Ann Coulter. A […]

Colbert Denied

POOF! That’s what happened to the spoof campaign of Stephen Colbert:
The presidential candidacy of comedian Stephen Colbert seemed to come to a screeching halt Thursday afternoon. The comedian’s application to be on the South Carolina Democratic primary ballot was rejected and he did not apply to appear on the state GOP primary ballot — with […]

Ron Paul’s Nerd Revolution

Time on Rep. Ron Paul’s followers:
“He’s about something that American nerd culture can get on board with: really knowing one subject and going all out on it,” says Ben Darrington, a Ron Paul supporter at Yale. “For some people, it’s Star Wars. For some people, it’s Japanese cartoons. For Ron Paul, it’s free-market commodity money.”
Nothing […]
