Madison be not proud

Meanwhile, Madison continued its remarkable population surge with a 10.7% increase from 2000 to 2008, top among Wisconsin cities with a population of 50,000 or more. The capital also led Wisconsin in numerical growth, adding 22,491 people, for a total population of 231,916.

“Madison remains a very desirable place to live, and positive growth rates like this reflect that high quality of life,” Madison Mayor Dave Cieslewicz said in a statement.

Madison’s growth has little to nothing to do with it’s “high quality of life,” it’s a direct result of one of the oldest truths in the world: government takes care of its own.

I wonder if the death of TV Pitchman Billy Mays…

yesterday will do anything to stop the “celebrity deaths com in threes” meme?

Of course, if two more minor celebs die this week, all bets are off.

When capitalism meets communism

I sometimes like to go through the Shepherd Express and take note of all the companies I won’t be buying from because their advertising helps support the paper’s crazy social agenda.

Got into an argument with a writer…

…about using Twitter to present a novel.

I can’t believe there’s even anything to argue about.

Presenting a book in 140 character chunks in reverse chronological order defeats the whole purpose of a novel which is to immerse a reader in the story.

You could probably cut a movie into eight-second slices and post them on Youtube (in reverse chronological order) over a three-week period but that doesn’t mean it’s a good idea.

There’s been some noise about Apple-founder Steve Jobs jumping to the head of the line…

…when he got his liver transplant.

But if President Obama needed a liver, we’d put him at the head of the line, right?

My brutally honest opinion is that Steve Jobs has done more to improve my life than any President in the last 40 years and is thus at least as deserving of special consideration as any politician.

Find some Letters in Bottles

I could spend a lot of time telling you why you should be reading Letters in Bottles, but that would just take time away from you actually reading it.

Go.

Enjoy.

Thank me later.
