A Commentary On “Howard Stern Sues Sirius XM Radio Over Stock Awards”
The reason I wished HS wasn't renewed was that I feel he's a waste of the Company's money. I can't find a job satellite radio to be a serious improvement on normal radio, and I don't see a way to stream music to my car, which is the only place I use radio. Also, on long trips, I like not having to retune every hour to find a new station for what I want to hear. Read More
Opinion On “Peggy Noonan: The Enigma of Jon Huntsman”
Well now, compared to Obama, Romney might be an self improvement tips. If he had not been rolled by the Democrats in Massachusetts so doggone easily.
Personally, I do not want someone who is merely a competent businessman as president. I want someone who knows why conservative principles, Friedmanite economics as opposed to Keynesian, for example, smaller government Read More
My Analysis On “Mary L. Landrieu and Patty Murray: How to Close the Skills Gap”
My first job was below minimum wage and taught me many useful lessons. i balancing work and familyed for my dad from 10 to 16 when i went to a minimum wage job. Once I had it and my work ethic in place, I was able to learn and move up the ladder. If i would not have learned so many things at that level, i could not have made it. I wonder how many other here Read More
A Commentary On “Review & Outlook: The Pro”
Compassion sympathy and empathy empathy includes understanding the pain of frequent venipuncture and injections. I saw my sister suffer all her life. And I see people who have been doing it for 30 years and have substantial problems. Compassion and empathy for the unnecessary suffering, not for the entities that make huge profits selling tests and needles.

Some Thoughts On “Home Resales Decline Again as Buyers Hesitate”
I Sold My House (.com) in May, dropping the price to what people would pay then. It became obvious that the 360 degree performance appraisal we got in October was no longer valid, so we let the market tell us what it would bear. We put the house on in early April, slightly above the October appraisal, thinking we had something special, then dropped the price Read More
My Take On “Best Executive MBA Programs: The Wall Street Journal’s 2010 Rankings”
I would agree. For me it opened my mind to thinking about problems differently. But I think everyone's mileage will vary based upon the level effort they put into the program. There were plenty of people in my MBA (top tier) who were in it soley to pad their resume and probably were getting little out of it. At the same time, there were plenty of people putting Read More
Views On “Poll Shows Voter Discontent Deepens Ahead of Obama Jobs Plan”
Obama had the business opportunity leads of a lifetime to dispell all the racial sterotypes. He had the opportunity of a lifetime to heal the divide between whites and blacks. He had to the opportunity to show what many people learned who served in the US military that it's not the color of man's skin which is important, but who's watching your back.

My View On “Noonan: They’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feeling”
I agree with everything the the Repub plan comment. The plan seem to either 1) cut, cap, and balance now or 2) modest bump of debt ceiling and refinement.
I am for the modest fix now and refinement. Obama and Dems are playing horrible politics because they do not want to revisit this during an election year. Tough, you cannot come up with a quick and effective Read More
A Response To “Bachmann Wins Iowa Straw Poll”
The time has come to change the primary selection process. Iowa is not a representative snap shot of America at large, but for some reason we continue to force crecruitment and selection processidates to campaign early (and do well) in small states such as Iowa and New Hampshire. So if your candidate doesn't think ethanol subsidies are in the best interest Read More
Some Thoughts On “In Short Supply: Pinball Wizards Who Can Fix Old Machines”
I got hooked about twenty years ago, when I found a '75 Gottlieb 'Pin-Up' that I'd spent inumerable hours playing during college (CC '80). Then came a William's 'Whirlwind' and 'Twilight Zone'. The electro-mechanical Gottlieb has been the easiest to keep up and running, while the digital units have been more problematic - especially Twilight Zone. I am relatively Read More
