It would seem that everyday there is another issue on which opinion is evenly divided down partisan lines. Healthcare has pretty much gone away and now it is all about the Arizona Immigration bill which ranks about 100% on the outrage meter. However, this issue is going to linger for a while and perhaps it…… Continue reading News – Oil Spill and Awful Politics

Arizona Immigration Law – A Unique Perspective

And as usual the debate is superficial filled with shallow “talking points,” which paint the issue as black and white and the color you choose being your political affiliation. I find the debate swirling around the details of the law a bit too much. For…… Continue reading Arizona Immigration Law – A Unique Perspective
Johnnie Walker Tasting
Just got back from a Johnnie Walker Tasting. I had never been to a “spirits” tasting before but apparently one can taste many different flavors in Whisky (Spelled the proper way) just like the way we can with wine. I got the invite from Netparty which I had apparently signed up for once upon a…… Continue reading Johnnie Walker Tasting

San Francisco – The Tenderloin – NY Times Article
The New York Times ran the article “San Francisco’s Unlikely Tourist Stop – The Tenderloin,” yesterday and as this neighborhood is about 5 blocks from me I really had the urge to comment. The Tenderloin in short is the most run down area of San Francisco. It is also unfortunately the first view of the…… Continue reading San Francisco – The Tenderloin – NY Times Article
