GOP Vixen points The Editors of Jeremy-Gilby-dot-com to an article on Al Jazeera (yes, that Aljazerea)

The Colonel suggests to Africa that the continent needs to unify as one Federation.

Or as he says it:
Unite or Die

Yo, Colonel. You need a good marketing campaign.

There is a major factor why The Editors of Jeremy-Gilby-dot-com believe mankind will never get to Mars.

Read this article (Free Republic)

Did you see the reason?

It was this:

“Duct tape doesn’t work in the vacuum of space,” said John Shannon, the mission management team’s chairman.

The manned space program is doomed.

Nations come into being in many ways. Military rebellion, civil strife, acts of heroism, acts of treachery, a thousand greater and lesser clashes between defenders of the old order and supporters of the new–all these occurrences and more have marked the emergences of new nations, large and small. The birth of our own nation included them all. That birth was unique, not only in the immensity of its later impact on the course of world history and the growth of democracy, but also because so many of the threads in our national history run back through time to come together in one place, in one time, and in one document: the Declaration of Independence.

We’re Migrating.
So if you leave comments now, they will not be populated by the new server.

Also, while the migration occurs, Jeremy-Gilby-dot-com will probably be down.

Don’t worry, we’ll be back.

Was anyone else pummeled by these fake Greeting Cards yesterday?

I got several of them, from Senders such as “Hallmark.com”, or “Greeting-Card.com” and “Riversong.com”
Under the subject of:

Happy July 4th!

The Springfield Effect is the name given to the phenomenon by which every place named Springfield is hard-linked in hyperspace to every other place of this name. In other words, there is only one place named Springfield, but it is “linked” to various locations in the world.

So, was today lucky, or unlucky for you?

People have asked The Editors of Jeremy-Gilby-dot-com what they think of the following headline:

So what kind of economy are we living in right now?
Good, or bad?

Housing is pretty spongy, and I predict some major foreclosures coming from this SubPrime Mortgage Fad.

But look at unemployment. Its at 4.5%, pretty much everyone has a job.

So what are people doing with their money?

This think was sented to The Editors of Jeremy-Gilby-dot-com from the former co-hort, yesterday.

Since G.B. and I were both born on the 13th of a month, we will occasionally have events where our birthdays land on a Friday; and thus we also celebrate Friday the 13th as well.

That means Ang gets one this year.

For you Mac Geeks out there, today is the day your iCal icon matches the rest of the world.

Since I’m going on Vacation in less than 60 days, I’ve been pondering the idea of opening up a portal for Guest Blogging on Jeremy-Gilby-dot-com.

Once upon a time, I swore there would be no guest blogging; I mean, its Jeremy-Gilby-dot-com, it doesn’t make a lick of sense to have a different author. But I think it could be spun right.

After the Slumber Party of July 2007 (Hosted by Harry Reid – Nevada :: Sorry Laura), I ask the question, who really lost?

Was it the Democrats?
Was it the Republicans?
Was it the President?
Or maybe someone else?

I don’t know if I should be concerned.

While I was in THREE HOURS of teleconference Meetings (2.5 of which I blame Cisco for), a Contractor was wandering around the cubicle jungle, and came by my desk with a device that looked like it came out of the movie GhostBusters.

I just crossed Patrick O’Brian’s The Mauritius Command off of the Jeremy-Gilby-dot-com Reading List.

It seems everyone has a theory these days:

You may remember my Summer of 1972 Theory where I agreed with the The Commissar when he suggested Hillary Clinton would derail the Democratic ticket in 2008 like Hubert Humphrey did in 1972; and bring in a more hard-left-leaning candidate (McGovern), thus ushering in a more tolerable Republican Candidate (Nixon).

I caught this over at Wizbang::Blue:
Is Hillary Clinton The New Richard Nixon?

Their theory: As Nixon was the renegade of the Republicans, Hillary is the renegade of the Democrats.

I’ve been going over my spam logs for Jeremy-Gilby-dot-com and since Friday, I’ve been getting at least one piece of comment/trackback spam every minute. So, I’ve downloaded the latest version of Bad Behavior to put as the primary defense again.

Spam Karma was doing to the trick, but it is thrashing my comment table. I had to do something.

Now, I didn’t watch the CNN/YouTube Debates, but I DID watch these parody questions from VodkaPundit.

Wednesdays are always a joy.

Thursdays are my Death-By-Meeting day (As I’m plundered by a plethora of meetings from 09:00 to 15:00)

But Wednesdays are my reporting days. Where I deliver, sometimes countless, reports to various units all over the world!

Ron Mexico strikes again, he was indicted for crimes around Dog Fighting. And now the talking heads are comparing the NFL to the NBA.

If you read back through the articles on this web site, it is safe to say that The Editors of Jeremy-Gilby-dot-com are proponents for the War on Terror, which we believe includes the War in Iraq.

As of late, we’ve felt the pressure of being in the minority of the public opinion.

However, this New York Times article caught our eye.

VIEWED from Iraq, where we just spent eight days meeting with American and Iraqi military and civilian personnel, the political debate in Washington is surreal. The Bush administration has over four years lost essentially all credibility. Yet now the administration’s critics, in part as a result, seem unaware of the significant changes taking place.

Today, the Olde Pueblo got pounded with Rain. Even the cubicle jungle had flooding from the directional stream of water falling from the sky.

Roads were flooded on the South Side of town, causing my normal 20 minute drive home to become a 45 minute drive home.

I drove by the Santa Cruz River, and had to stop.
