Florida Republican Primary… Predictions?
Long-time reader, and good friend of mine, “Fishingrod” asked me for my predictions for the Florida Republican Primary that’s coming up tomorrow (Tuesday).
In fact, I hadn’t even thought to write about it, because it’s hardly a “prediction”, as the situation has stabilized at this point, but let me talk about the WHY rather than the WHAT.
The order tomorrow is going to be Romney, Gingrich, Santorum, Paul. Read the rest of this entry »
Internet Blog-Influenced News Cycles
According to klout.com/BillCammack, I’m a “Broadcaster”.. To them, that means “You broadcast great content that spreads like wildfire. You are an essential information source in your industry. You have a large and diverse audience that values your content.”
I mention that because I’m glad they changed my category from “Pundit”. Pundits get on my last nerve. :D
I didn’t have anything against pundits before a few months ago when I started following the Republican debates to see whether they were going to field a viable team to potentially defeat President Obama in 2012.
The problem I have with them now isn’t really their fault, but they have to deal with a new development in television broadcasting which I call “Internet Blog-Influenced News Cycles”. Read the rest of this entry »

Tiger Woods Press Conference Takeaways
Tiger Woods spoke in a press conference just now. Here’s what I got out of it:
Tiger looks good. It doesn’t look like he went through plastic surgery.
According to the written speech, he’s deeply sorry for his selfish and irresponsible behavior.
He’s not as good at reading as he is at golf.
He did better than Chris Brown did, at least.
He sounds rather robotic, like “YABBA. DABBA. DOO”.
Tiger Woods does a lot for the children of the world, and he’s dedicated to making sure that continues.
He’s reading off of a paper to express that he didn’t get jacked up by his wife, Elin.
Tiger was taught to believe in core values, but he convinced himself that normal rules didn’t apply. He never thought about who he was hurting. He thought only about himself. He thought he could get away with anything he wanted to. Read the rest of this entry »
Dating is like Asians on Television
Asians In Manhattan
Please don’t ask me what’s going on in this picture. Thank you very much. Moving right along….. :D
There are A LOT of Asians in Manhattan, NYC. However, if your “understanding” of Manhattan comes from watching television or films, you’d probably assume that there weren’t any at all.
I don’t know anything about the casting industry, but it pretty much seems that unless someone writes elements specifically attributed to Asians (and we all know what THOSE are) into a show, you’re not going to see any Asian brothaz headlining American films unless they blow up large, like Chow Yun-Fat.
I was actually expecting to see another one of my favorites, Tony Leung show up on the scene, but that’s not really the point I wanted to make. Read the rest of this entry »
