women wear when they’re out in [...]

Imperfect Presidential Candidates, Impossible Problems

Sunday, February 24th, 2008

McCain tried to influence the FCC on behalf of a company that paid a tres-cute lady lobbyist to hang out with him. Evil! Barack Obama tried drugs when he was young, and doesn’t have 80 years of experience in the federal government. Horrors! Hillary Clinton is a schemer and will step on anyone who gets [...]

La Fe - Bradenton’s Friendly Local Boxing Gym from roblimo on Vimeo.
It’s in a humble little building behind La Fe Tortilleria at the corner of 9th St. West and 22nd Avenue West, totally easy to overlook. It’s a next-to-no-budget operation run by coach (and former championship boxer Aaron Avalos that works with aspiring boxers as [...]

Local video genius Damen Shaqiri and I made this back in 2004. Totally loopy, an experiment in many ways. I forgot I had the file. What the heck. Maybe you'll get a kick out of it. (The book is totally obsolete, BTW. Desktop Linux has come a *long* way since 2004.
The infamous "throw [...]

We’re running out of taxes to cut. Let’s try something different. (fiction)

Friday, February 15th, 2008

Let’s see. Investment income is already taxed at a far lower rate than income gained from working. Inheritance income is barely taxed at all, and dynasty-builders think any tax on money they get from the birth-lottery should be 100% tax-free even though income gotten from other kinds of lotteries and gambling is taxed at the [...]

A (sadly) changed official Bradenton attitude toward the Village of the Arts

Wednesday, February 6th, 2008

My wife and I moved to Bradenton’s Village of the Arts in 2004. In mid-2006, after many delays, Debbie opened Debbie’s Art Garage in large part because the City of Bradenton’s Downtown Development Authority (DDA) promised to put in sidewalks and “Village of the Arts” signs on major routes near us, and to generally spiff [...]
