This is an outrage from New York Times


Is Obama a Mac and Hillary a PC? Those are the headlines from an article I read today in New York Times.  This is the kind of crap that the democrats love to spit out so they can  make their man look cool, hip, or better yet, current.   They scour the internet and look for stories or headlines from companies or individuals in motion.   They  grab some of that momentum that they see; strip it off the backs of those individuals that are actually working or contributing to society in some way, wrap themselves up in it as if it where their story, their cause, their heroics and then use it for their soap box.   Sounds like another company we know MSFT.  Anyway, Obama is not a Mac...  Obama is a Acer, no he is a Sony Vaio laptop, or maybe a  Gateway P-6831FX running Vista with external Verizon Card.  Yeah i think that is it.  Hillary is much  simpler to know.  She is using Bill's old 12" IBM think pad.  It has a built in calendar program that Bill still uses.  It has all of his old contacts and favorite restaurants in all 50 states, as well as a complete list of all celebrities in every major city with personal email address'.  They have been told that they could sync that information with a newer model but they don't trust the intel.

To all the haters

So I was let down by starbucks big deal right. I am not banging the
Montana coffee trader war drums or anything I just am on the quest for
the perfect coffee. Kona joe 100% pure kona coffee. Trellis
reserve. This is defently the best I have tasted. Come by to have a
cup.

Punk Place deserves a Roast


Ok, like ya'll arent' going to be pissed by this one.  Hey just like the next guy, I loved the idea that Starbucks was sick of getting their butt kicked by Dunkin Donunts and Mc Delish and like most companies acted to late and tried to present the worlds greatest cup of coffee to compete against the common drip.  No small feat.  So i have had it several times now and generally liked it;  Sort of.  So I got a pound of Pike Place (Original flavor) beans and brought them home for the taste test.  I decided to do two tests.  Simply pour a great americano, and then a double espresso.  First the americano, smooth but flat.  Let me explain, there is basically just one flavor, while being somewhat mild like i like it really didn't go anywhere.  (7+) pretty good cup of coffee.  Then came the espresso.  I had higher hopes here and sure enough the espresso was better in its concentrated form.  I like the acidity a lot and there were even a few hints of lemon. What was lacking however was there still was a flatness to the coffee.  There were not layers of flavors like i am use to in Peet's or do i dare say Montana Coffee Trader...Montana blend.  (8)  I have to admit it tasted significantly better than most Starbucks blends but still not great.

10 large





So i was reading today about how the economy may be slowing.  Well the indicators from this article was the fact that Sotheby's was not able to sell one of the largest and rarest diamonds ever offered because their were no buyers.  They wanted to get between 10-12 million.  An offer came in at 9.22 million and apparently not good enough.  So the conclusion was that the economy is slowing.  Not enough buyers for a 10 million dollar diamond out there.  Just to put things into perspective i wanted to size it up for you.  Also i wanted to know what would you do if you received 10 million dollars to spend how ever you wanted.

Ranchin' it




The girls are working hard on the ranch today. They had to ride all the way from the main house to the guest house on the quad to prep the barn for moving the horses into the upper barn from the pastures.  The farrier is coming tomorrow to check their shoes (the horses).  Lots of work. Not easy living on a ranch.
