“Wall Street doesn't make anything. Even more so today, everything they play with is imaginary. Make believe.

They've spent the last ten years conjuring money from nothing and hoping to get out before someone notices. And they're just doing it again.”

“As long as Amazon, Sony, B&N, and other big booksellers dictate how we are allowed to view the books we purchase, then I'm going to avoid them like a STD. I have hundreds of white papers, web clippings, articles, and books in the PDF format. I have no intention of asking the people I bought my reader from if I am able to install a book of my own to read.

That is only the start of the burn. It bothers me to no end how companies like Amazon are able to take an open source operating system and then impose the most restrictive and draconian measures to lock others out of their readers.

I believe that its not going to be the very near future when ebook reader prices are going to drop, pdf and epub will win out. And COLOR.”

“Indeed, the coward of the county to the 5th power.

I am an only son and I got drafted. Our next door neighbors had five sons and not a single one of them served. Did it help that their daddy was on the draft board and he was a republican. OH yes and who can forget. A prominent local Christian.”

“I joined at the end of the Vietnam war at age 17. I wanted to go, but too late. All the NCOs and my CO, all of them, came home from Vietnam. I loved those men. I felt guilt that I didn't go. It was never about politics. It was about honor. Bless you brother.”

“Great! It's much better to have your enemies in front of you where you can see what they are up to. Who know, this may possibly be a new election strategy. If it's impossible to get elected as a republican, well then run as a democrat and change later. Judging from the likes of the democratic senators who sold their constituents down the river in blatant attempts to fill the coffers of their own states.

Here is a clue for those blue dog democrats like Dodd, Nelson, Baucus, and the list just goes on and on. We live in one country. True, it does consist of fifty different states, but we live under one set of laws. When you take out the pocket of one state to give to another, you have morally corrupted yourself to the extent where you are no longer fit to serve your constituents.”

“I see the old model of music purchase remains. They would have the purchaser buy a complete album for the sake of one or two songs and ten more crappy ones they couldn't sell if they wanted to. I suppose if we were to follow that reasoning, we we bought gas for our cars, we could only buy a full tank. Why buy a new shirt when you can buy a complete outfit?

These relics from the past can either change or they can just go away.

Now it's on to the cable companies. Yes we do want to purchase our viewing pleasure Ala Carte. I for one am sick of nine Jesus channels, five cooking channels, and five shopping channels. Each and evey one of them considered a viable alternative. There I feel better that I got that out of my system.”

“Yes that is true, but some pocket 75% for operating expenses and 25% for the charities. You need to research the charities first. I tell them up front that I am going to check them out before I write a check. I try to help local organizations first. I love Toys for Tots and even though I am ex Navy, I gotta say, "God bless the Marines."”
