Colin Powell on Meet The Press

I have to step back and post about a serious topic this week. Yes, it's about Politics... but feel I need to talk about this.

Colin Powell was on Meet the Press this week.
Yes, he's supporting Obama.

That's not the story. It's WHY he's supporting him and the reasoned rationale behind it that blows me away. It's a moment of clarity which is badly needed in this country at this point.

Liz, I'm entrusting to you to make sure Dad sees this.

Meet the Water Cannon!

Liz asked "What is your favorite tv show at the moment"?

Well, Dr. Who Season 4 just finished up. I managed to see an episode of Venture bros. I've been watching WWE Monday Night Raw alot lately.

But to honestly answer the question is pick a choice that is not entertainment at all...
NBC's Meet The Press.
A huge reason why is if I can't watch it on TV,
I can watch it when I can anytime on the web.

A big change in the show happened when Tim Russert died, preparing for Meet the Press. Tom Brokaw has taken over, but it's not the same. He's not as tough as Tim was. Tim was raised by Jesuits and was a lawyer before jumping into politics and political journalism.

This last saturday I went to Canobie Lake Park. Think a smaller 6-flags. Jess got me a ticket for her father's company picket. After food, it was rides and the arcade. I won myself a new taz... And won Jess a Big Opps bear and a small Share Bear. (They're Care Bears, Liz, they're so before your time.)

But the most fun was the flume ride. They have two versions. There's one called the "Boston Tea Party" that's designed to get everyone wet, riders and watchers alike. The other one, which I'm talking about is a log on water ride. Now, here's the kicker: I didn't actually ride the log ride... I watched as people came by and said hello to them...

And then put a quarter into the machine next to me to spray water on them.
So much fun.
