Random Stuff

Sorry I have not posted much this week. I have not had the concentration factor to sit down and write anything coherent. I will try to do better. Promise. I can still babble though and babble I shall.

I started the new job on Monday. So far, all is good. Going through training again and being in probation for a year is going to suck. In the end though, I see myself being much happier in the new digs.

My boy Obama has had a rough week or so. He gave a wonderful and articulate speech on race earlier in the week. Today, Bill Richardson endorsed him which is a move in the right direction. Richardson is an established voice in the Democratic party and he is one of the few Clintonites to come out publically for Obama. Richardson is a good bet for the VP slot. He would bring much needed governing experience to the ticket and also give Obama a foot in the door with Hispanics. Other big names in the party like Al Gore are rumored to be waiting in the wings to endorse. Hopefully Richardson will get the ball rolling.

The news has been screaming of nothing else, but the financial crisis. With the Internet, the 24 hour news babble and more, it is no wonder that Wall Street is in such a panic. Someone starts a rumor and a week later, a company with assets of more than a billion dollars is gone. The reckless fiscal policies of this administration were bound to catch up with us. Tax cuts for the rich while charging two wars on high interest credit cards is not the soundest move we have ever seen a president make. The one positive to this fucked up mess is that it is coming to light before the election. Whoever inherits this mess will have little power to change our financial course over the next four to eight years. Instead, they will simply be trying to dig us out of the huge hole that we find ourselves in.

Christian Siriano from Project Runway has been popping up everywhere. He made an appearance last night on Bravo's Who Wants to Be a Supermodel. (I am rooting for either Ben or Holly.) He also has been all over youtube, blogs, talk shows, etc. We all love ourselves some Christian, but the overkill factor is peaking.

We are about two months away from the Sex and The City film release. A new trailer for the film was recently released and it looks AMAZING. (Not that we loyal fans expected anything less.) Check it out.




I hope that you all have a great weekend. Cuidate.
