AT&T Internet up and down -- mostly down -- for two days now. # I don't know where Wal-mart keeps its TV dinner trays, but it's neither with the TVs nor with the dinners. #

Old White Men
As an American, I feel that the major political parties should be representative of America. And that's the problem with the Republican party. As anyone on the left, or in the traditional media, will tell you, the GOP is the party of old white men. And they're right. Just look at these ...
