Next Big Thing

Apple is slated to come out with the next big thing tomorrow - the escalation of it's IPhone/ IPod to personal computer status.  Pundits call it an Apple Tablet or ISlate and Verizon is rumored to provide on line connectivity.
~
My prediction is that these devices will replace PC's, Telephones and Books within 5 years.  This will be the convenient standard necessary for instant intercommunication on a video, voice and data basis.
~
People will have instant access to each other, and all of the information, books and records that they need. It's impossible to predict how this capacity will mold our lives.
~
We will truly be limited only by our imagination, intelligence, and creativity.
~
It will  enable all of us to think for ourselves and take personal responsibility.  That will be a huge change for the better.

It will also enable media outlets and figures to tell us what to think. Obama! P.S. In case you did not hear, he said its not about him.

POTW Week 3

I feel bad that our President needed such a jolt of a wake up call this week.  When I get woken up that way, I'm generally pretty cranky with Joanne and stuff.  Poor Barack probably can't pull that act off wth Michelle, without getting his ass kicked.  I'd be afraid to piss her off too.

Announcing.....

Nanepashemet Peeps of the Week for the Third Week of 2010.

Dale Johnson

Senator Robert Menendez

Nancy Pelosi

Christos Laganos

Julie Johnson

Angelina Joli

This has been a special weekend with one day left.  For security reasons, I can't give you any details

Bottomless Pitt

So I wake up this morning and get slammed with the rumor that Brad Pitt and Angelina Joli are breaking up.
~
No, there wasn't any screeching or wailing on my part.... just a whole pile of hurt and heartache.
~
I'm willing to offer my considerable skills in marriage counseling for a reduced fee... if only they will make another go.

Cold Morning

It's eight degrees below zero this morning.
~
I know that this would stop most of you in your tracks, but a Mountan of a Man like me doesn't lose a step.  As soon as Joanne gets the trash ready for me to take out, I'll get off this couch, put on my boots and ski pants, and bring those bags to the trash bin.
~
I won't even wait for her to shovel the path.
~

Sleep Tight

I began the day by torturing myself again and watching the ABC Good Morning America show.  I pretty much can protect myself from their insidious thought police attempts, (which is a standard attribute of a Mountain of a Man) and today's episode wasn 't one of their worse attempts.
~
But since it was a down news day, they came out with this bit on dirty hotel rooms, and how to detect bed bugs and such.  Unfortunately, I'm such an expert on that, having traveled at the government per diem rate for so many years previously.
~
I think that if I still went on business trips for a living, I would pack my own sleeping bag.

Feeder Focus

So this wicked irritating Peep sends me an email yesterday saying, "J. Now that Scott Brown has pulled off his election to the Senate, what will you have to focus on?"
~
What a stupid, irritating, idiotic, moronic, and again stupid question!!!!!
~
Not to mention being wicked annoying.
~
I'll just be paying more attention to the bird feeder.... that's what I'll be focusing on.... you freaking goofball.
~
But now that you mention it, there were two sparrows, a dark eyed junco and the squirrel at the feeder this morning.

Maria Rowen said...

Pity the poor mis-guided peeps and their political prescriptions...hopefully they all have jobs...Don't forget to feed the juncos!

Getting Off the Juggernaut Express

Don't know about you, but I woke up this morning for the first time in the last six months or so, not feeling like I was a helpless passenger on the Juggernaut Express with crazy Nancy Pelosi as the Conductor.
~
Stimulate the economy?  Sure..... let's flow trillions to zip codes that don't exist.  Do you know of one job that has been created????  Me either!
~
Reform Health care?  No Problem.  Open up the Checkbook, there's always more where that came from.  And ram this down everybody's throats while the votes are there.
~
But when I woke up this morning, I just felt like the craziness might be starting to be moderated.

Tuna Lips said...

I likes Brown. He done bread them frisky kittens, he okay in the TL way o' thinkin'.

Pisc said...

Go after Tierney now. We have a target on William Delahunt's seat down on the S. Shore.

 

Great Power

Once again, the power of the Nanepashemet Blog is not to be denied.
~
Was Scott Brown not endorsed by Nanepashemet over a week ago????
~
Did Scott Brown not take this "Kennedy Seat" election running away????
~
I rest my case.
~
With great power comes great responsibility.   Even though it is obvious that Nanepashemet tipped the scales for Brown, rest assured I will use this power prudently and wisely.
~
When is John Kerry's term up anyway?

Maria Rowen said...


At 9:15 PM last night the Democrats in Washington got their wake-up call from the Park Plaza Hotel and the rest of us got to party with Senator Scott Brown. Please weild your N-Power for Charlie Baker to make the same thing happen in November.

__________________________________________________________________________

I will carefully consider your request, Maria.  But what if Harvey decides to run instead?   I think you are jumping the gun.

Voice of the People

Just left the polls in mid morning.   It was packed with voters.  The people are speaking.
~
Thank God we live in a society where the people have an impact.
~
Even if the hapless, misguided Democrats win this seat, this outpouring of citizenship has been inspiring.
~
My head tells me that Scott Brown will win this going away.   But I've been wrong before.... once or twice.

Kerry D'Orio  said....
I agree. It was nice to young people at the polls exercising their right to vote! 

PIsc said...

If you are of a mind, continue to contribute to Brown, the machine will cry fowl and the SEIU thugs are shameless. Lawyers are the next call. We are kicking ass at 9 pm

Major Milestone

Today is slated to be a milestone day.
~
Obama gets a huge message that his policies are polarizing rather than bringing the country together.  Hopefully he takes the hint.
~
But by far, the most important milestone is that the Nanepashemet Blog will be hit for the 70,000th time today.  That's alot of reaching out in angst, anxiety and inspiration.  I certainly hope that you received the solace/vengeance that you were seeking when you went to this Blog 70k times over the past three years or so.
~
Scott Brown is just frosting on the cake.

Rockett's Hat in the Ring

Mike Rockett announced today that he is running for a seat on the Marblehead Board of Selectmen.
~
First Brown, then Rockett.
~
Things are starting to look up politically.
~
If this trend continues, I just might register as a Republican.   Been an Independent for too long.
~
But watch Mike.   He has a lot of creativity, and knows how to get things accomplished.   He won't be a Selectman for long.... I'd love to see him take that upcoming Kerry seat.

Hopeless Obsession

Just sat through George Stephanopoulos and Diane Sawyer throwing in the towel on the Mass US Senate race, and lamenting the loss of the Health Bill.  So much for objective journalism. 
~
I don't know who is more pathetic... these ABC News Liberal puppets or me for watching them.   I know that I'm pathetic for a number of other reasons, but this is just one of them.
~
But even if they are shills for the elitist Liberal thought police, it still was cool seeing them report that Washington is gearing up to take the hit. 
~
Soon this Blog can get off of the obsession with seeing the good guys spit in the eye of the entitlement crowd, and write about some really relevant topics.... like building the Marblehead Gunning Dory, or .... how the Democrats really piss me off.
~
Sorry.  It's freaking hopeless.
