I Love Dick Cheney! Are There Any Other Grownups Left in Washington?


Former Vice President Dick Cheney gave a speech last week at the American Enterprise Institute. It was serious, direct, and it was a reminder of the threat we face from a determined and dangerous enemy.

For those who will never forget September 11th, and the reality-check it delivered, read and/or watch the speech.

Liberty and Tyranny by Mark Levin


Finished this a few weeks ago. A very timely and valuable book for 2009.

Really a great resource and framework to evaluate the direction the President is taking our country. The ideas and principals that made this country what it is are being thrown aside for those have have always failed before.

Do people understand what's happening to the country? Do people realize what we are becoming and what we are losing? Mark Levin does.

Twikini is a nice new Twitter App for WM


A lot has happened on the last few years in the smartphone and social networking world.

The "dream" of converged devices seems like it's actually become a reality. My latest devices are a Treo 800w and a Touch Pro. Both are very powerful PDAs and mobile phones.

Similarly, sites and networks like Facebook and Twitter have really taken hold and become common means of communicating and staying in touch for lots of people. Not just the young, but us middle-aged folks us them too.

I'm new to Twitter. But, since joining, I've searched for my favorite Windows Mobile client. I've used a few, but have recently begun to use Twikini most often.

Twikini is a new product by Trinket Software . http://www.trinketsoftware.com/Twikini

It is clean, fast, and effective. And, most helpfully to me, it works well on various sized screens.

We'll see how it goes as the product develops, and as competitors respond, but I think the undisputed result is that we users will be the beneficiary in any case.
OK. Well, it's been a couple/few years since posting here. Seems like a good time to get back into posting more regularly. Stay tuned...
