XBox - no Intel Inside
This story talks about the new XBox being powered by a IBM built solution. They gent is speulating that it might be an AMD 64-bit chip. I suppose since i missed out on the PS2/Xbox console ... the next one I buy will most likley be a Nintendo or Sony machine. Grr ... Micro$oft rats.

Tulip festival in Oregon
What a beautiful natural wonder to see the Wooden Shoe Tulip Farm in full bloom for the 19th annual Tuplip-fest. We scooted on down to see the flowers this past weekend and what a delight. The vibrant colors that you see on their website is what we actually experienced in person.
The day was a bit overcast (big suprise!) - but I think that led to better picture taking since the shadows were slightly reduced. We just got a new scanner so we should be better about posting pictures in the near future. Stay tuned!

Yahoo! News - 9/11 Victims' Kin Angered by Bush Ads
Let the games commence ... and you thought that it was going to be a quiet fall. The political machine that has been in rough idle for a little while is revving up it's collective engine.
I'm not going to pull any punches here, Bush needs to go. Yes, he's a tough guy that runs around the world making it a safer place for his corporate interests. But what has he done at home besides run up HUGE debts while handing out tax cuts to "everyone". The government that he claimed he wanted to shrink has grown by leaps and bounds.
What I would like to see from our leaders:
- Challenge the American public to make a difference. Whether it's their lives, their families, their cities, their state, or their coutnry. Just do something that makes you feel like you are a part of and a participant in the world around you. "No man is an island"
- Point our country in the direction and provide the leadership so that we can stand up and become closer to the ideals that we claim we have rather than cowering behind the facade of fake wars and terror threat levels.
I can't claim to know much about John Kerry. He might be Bush in sheep's clothing - I definately need to learn about what this man stands for.
But I can tell you right now, I will not vote for Bush.
