I'd like to officially jump the shark. I said Monday, but: I've got new digs at adamlawson.us. Update your blog rolls accordingly.

I good and borked my template and there's no way to revert, apparently, to the old style. That's okay, I have a solution but it won't be ready until Monday. Update: Fixed it, but I was planning to ditch anyway.

Much like with girls, I seem to always pick politicians destined to lose. This trend also tends to repeat itself in sports, but that's another post entirely (and the Giants won so it's not 100%). I pick Fred, Fred drops out. I pick Romney, and he gets pretty well and destroyed yesterday. As it stands, at this point, McCain nearly has the nomination wrapped up. Huckabee and Romney need nearly

Mary Katharine Ham points out what today is, in addition to "the day after Super Tuesday." Happy Birthday, Mr. President. He would be 97. I wonder what he'd think about the situation today? The candidates, the reaction. The way we're all acting. The war. What would Ronnie do?

Last night should serve as a reminder: John Zogby is a fucking idiot. He had Romney up eight in California. He had Kerry up by ten or so. Every election, he's wrong. Why is he still in the polling business? His math is worse than the RIAA's.

My governor just put me in my place on Fox News: "I can support any of the three against the competition in November." There's not a whole lot of politicians I'll listen to. But Barbour proved himself through Katrina, and I liked him before that. I'd already been reconsidering my position; mostly because of Ann Coulter.

I've been silent on politics for a few days, and silent on everything really. I've heard a lot from both sides of the issue on John McCain. There are those who say they won't vote for him, ever, and those who think this is a ridiculous stance because it guarantees a Hillary or Obama win. Despite my reluctance to vote for McCain, I leaned towards the latter for a while. No longer. I was

I ordered one of my textbooks from Amazon. It is scheduled to arrive today via DHL. I also ordered myself some computer stuff from Newegg. It is scheduled to arrive today via UPS.

When he announced his run, I endorsed Fred Thompson. Last week, he announced he was departing. Since then, I've looked at the current candidates for president. I thought about waiting to see if FDT endorsed anyone; as of this writing, to my knowledge, he has not. I laid out Friday why I could never support John McCain, in the primaries or general. I just can't do it. Similar reasons apply

I mentioned this the other day. If you have to lie or cheat to win, you don't deserve to win. Isn't that right, Senator McCain? Not only is the fool lying, but he's projecting at the same time. You can add another item to why I can't support McCain.

I've always been a big fan of the Highlander movie and show. I didn't watch the one spin-off show (the raven? I think), but I liked the original show. I also liked Highlander III and Endgame, but they weren't as good as the first movie. So when I found out there was another movie, featuring the character from the television show, I sought it out. I tried to watch it last night. I watched a

Fred Thompson has withdrawn from the race, as I'm sure everyone knows by now. I am not happy with my party for putting us in a situation where the best choice never had a prayer. I'm now reconsidering the remaining candidates, but it does not look well. Here's where I stand: John McCain and Rudy Giuliani are not options.

I will not vote for Mike Huckabee and I will not vote for John McCain. Nor will I vote for Rudy Giuliani. I am not alone in this. I will not compromise my beliefs for someone who has outright lied to me (Huckabee, McCain), or someone who supports allowing cities to take my guns. I will not vote for them. I will not.

When I saw this last night, my first thought was Huckabee, too. Glad to see I'm not alone -- Huck has already shown he's a scumbag and not very Christian when it comes to campaigning, but don't tell that to the evangelicals. But that's not all, and this made me laugh: "(Huckabee) is an open borders drag queen" sayeth Michelle Malkin. So he's a scummy creep and he's changing more than Romney's

It took me until midway on my drive home tonight to decide I wasn't through with Kevin McCullough. Something he said stuck in my head through class and I am going to respond. In his non-retraction, he said gamers should have to go to the city limits to places where normal people don't go to get games like Mass Effect, implying the same sort of circumstances for video games as pornography and sex

I haven't hockey blogged much, either, so here goes. We won our first five games of the year, putting us on a winning streak and putting us in seventh place in our division. That was really nice. Then we lost an away game in Augusta fairly badly, and last night, played the Texas Wildcatters. They're the best team in the league and they came in with only three regulation losses this season. I

If Mr. McCullough is worried about video games, I have one for him that is more of everything he fears than Mass Effect. It's not only marketed by the developers to anyone, but they're so insidious they give the game away for free, and in addition to that, they give away the source code* so that players or interested gamer-nerds can modify it, and make it worse, or more violent, or more sexual.

Here is why McCullough's lies about the game offend me so: Before I started blogging, I told a Kerry voting friend "I'd rather Bush lose than Bush cheat to win, and if you don't feel the same way about your candidate, then you're being unAmerican and I don't want to know you." If you have to cheat to win, then it's not worth winning. Similarly, if you have to lie for your issue, your issue

I really like reading Mary Katharine Ham and townhall.com, but sometimes, they employ people who are a few representatives short of a Congress.

I haven't blogged much because my semester started, and hockey games, and life is just generally in the way, but this was too much to pass up. I am very on the record as opposing Mike Huckabee.

I have been feeling particularly upset and depressed lately, which wasn't the mood I wanted to be in going into Iowa, since it just added to my woes. It's no specific thing, or nothing really bad (my crappy moods are often only caused by small things adding up). In our returning home games, we lost two games.

Here are some things I want in 2008: Fred Thompson does surprisingly well in the primaries, is the nominee. Fred Thompson wins the presidency, and this endless campaign finally ends. Preferably by enough of a margin to deprive the kooks of their whining. Nancy Pelosi removed from her current role as Speaker. Harry Reid removed from his role as Majority Leader.

Last night, fresh off a shoot out loss to the Florida Everblades (punny I know), Mississippi faced down the top team in the division, the Texas Wildcatters. Now, we're one of the few teams to hand them a loss, despite our Disney movie in the making playing ability. However, going into the third period, it did not look good at 1-6. Before I go any further I will state that I've only ever once

I don't think that cops posing as hookers counts as entrapment, because they aren't getting men who wouldn't have committed the crime elsewise. Not that I think prostitution should be illegal; it should not. The sting operations are a waste of police resources, as well. But it's still against the law and to me, that's not entrapment. That said: this bullshit is entrapment. The police in

I know there's a lot going on today with the Bhutto assassination, but the truth is, our presidential election is a lot more important, and could be one of the more important elections in our lifetimes.

Listened to the game tonight in Texas, Seawolves against the Wildcatters. After our loss yesterday afternoon, I was ready for a win. Apparently, so were the Seawolves. After giving up an early goal (1:22 into the game), they recovered in the second period and took a lead in the third. Then Texas tied it up, with a short-handed goal that ought to embarrass the Seawolves, but they rebounded

For a long time, many on the right have accused John McCain of being the "Senator from the media." He's been their maverick, the guy who can be counted on to stick it to the Republicans when the camera is pointed at him and then smile about it while the media pat him on the head for standing up to his party. Now, however, he's having a bit of a spat with the New York Times over some allegations

The Seawolves just lost a game in Texas, 2-1, but it should be over time. One of the two goals for Texas was not. It hit the post and bounced out, but the linesman said it hit the net. Based on where the puck ended up, I think he's wrong, and so did the announcer on the radio, and so did our coach. Morgan Cey, the Seawolves goalie, had an extraordinary game this morning. So did the Texas

I've been playing the Wii a bit lately. Still haven't gotten around to new games yet, but all in good time. Mostly, I've been retro-gaming because post-semester, that's my typical ritual. Up until the Wii, this involved hooking up the old NES, SNES, Sega Genesis, or firing up DosBox. The Wii almost completely removes the first three from the equation; almost every good game for those systems

We've not had any home games since the end of November, and we're almost two weeks out from the next. Since the Seawolves played in Pensacola tonight, against the IcePilots, some friends and I thought we'd head out and catch our team. We have a decent record against Pensacola, so even though we lost Friday night to them I held out hope. Two of the three of us had on Seawolves jerseys and

And I don't mean Katie Holmes I am growing out my facial hair. Originally, this started as a sort of protest of sorts.

Okay, I'm not a big television watcher; I have a few shows I watch, but it's mostly mindless crap that makes me wonder about the rest of you. So the WGA strike probably won't have any real impact on my life, because, well, I just don't care. I can read until my shows come back, or play nethack, or masturbate.

You're just a bitch. This is going to sound somewhat like a whiny livejournal post, but it's not. At least not really. It's more a commentary on an annoying trend among my generation.

So the MPAA, who threatened to sue websites for displaying numbers that could potentially be used to break copy protection on movies... was nailed for violating copyright. They were unavailable for the developer of code to contact, so he went to their ISP, and the ISP shut them down. A case of "do as we say, not as we do" eh MPAA? Fuckers.

The Seawolves won last night in an away game that I'm kind of glad was away; it sounded kind of boring over the internet feed. But a win is a win.

Saturday a week ago, we lost to the Pensacola Ice Pilots, 4-3. Then Thursday night, we lost to the Augusta Lynx 4-0. I went into last night's game without much hope, expecting to see the Seawolves come out on bottom again to the Lynx. A 4-0 victory is pretty damning. However, someone lit a fire under the players, because for the entire game it stayed tied or close. One team would score, then

We're killing the universe. Or, "Why Adam thinks scientists are full of shit." Sorry, nothing to come from New Scientist is going to be credible with me. Not after this barrel of bull cookies. They go on to say that because we observed that the universe weighs less, that we may have changed the life span of the universe. By observing. In short, it's a crock of shit to the fifty third power.

Last night, the Mississippi Seawolves won their second game of the season, against the Pensacola Ice Pilots. It was a brutal game: 8-2. Quoth, because this really explains the game perfectly: At 11:13 of the second, Torry Gajda scored his first of the game, picking up the rebound of Mike Falk’s wrist shot.

So first, Hollywood blames piracy, and anything they can, for declining movie sales. They don't look to the fact that perhaps they're morons and movies suck lately. Honestly, when the best movie I've seen in a year is a toss up between a movie about pirates (with a crappy ending, my God...) and a movie about giant transforming robot-cars? Seriously.

Al Gore winning aside... I was reading about Gandhi, and he was never awarded a Nobel Peace Prize. But Jimmy Carter and Kofi Annan were. Pfft.

Or, "Eh, fuck it." I'm getting sick. I'm not sure where this sick came from, but I have my ideas. I am fighting to not get sick by pumping myself full of things that are supposed to help, and avoiding sugar and dairy like the plague. Today is also "Eh, fuck it" day. I keep starting to do things that I want or need to do -- because, having no homework, today would be a great day for them --

Via the high-larious Jay Tea at Wizbang! we have some special olympics rejects over at DKos: However...I started thinking about other relationships that have indeed been killed because those people where Bush supporters.

Counting my classes tonight, I have at most twenty-six days left this semester. This semester has been a really trying semester, to put it politely. I'm taking five classes, once again, and they're all very in depth, difficult classes. Right now, I'm hoping for a return of the ITBC grades -- As and Bs -- but there are two classes I'd take a C in with a smile. After this semester, I believe I

Actually, no, we're probably not, at least not by hurricanes. This is two years in a row where forecasters have completely blown it. And people expect me to believe they can tell me what the temperature is going to be in 100 years?

Well, now, that was interesting. Our first home game since before Katrina was last night, against the Reading Royals. Things started out very well: Brad Arnold of Three Doors Down sang the National Anthem, we scored the first goal. Then Reading scored, and again, and again, and again, and I left with a few minutes left, 4-1 Reading. With under two minutes left, the Seawolves scored. 4-2.

I got a call from the above number, or rather, they showed up as that number, and a place called "VSNL America, I" on caller ID. They were offering me a free phone for T-Mobile. They told me the plan was so many minutes, a certain amount a month, and that I'd have a one time activation fee. Well, problem one, I just got a cellphone with Cingular/AT&T, and two, the activation fee wasn't right.

De pointed me to this douchebag after my last post. My first thought after reading the guy's e-mails: He should hook up with that Jacqueline Passey cunt. Actually, I'm lying. My first thought was, "Who calculates the exact minutes until they go somewhere? 'in 26 minutes.'" then "He gave her his HOTORNOT score!?" Then I thought, "Yeah, he may be smart and strong and metrosexual with his

There's so many douchebags in this story that for a moment I thought I had got lost somewhere between Drudge and Slashdot and ended up in the feminine hygiene products aisle at Walmart. Mm, vinegar. Basic summation: Woman posts video of her child dancing, and in the background, for a whopping twenty-nine seconds, you can hear a Prince song. Universal, a member of the RIAA, has You-Tube take

The Georgia Supreme Court set aside a young man's prison sentence as cruel and unusual. I have to say it's stupid it got that far, but at least they made the right call -- eventually. It's probably fortunate she didn't attempt manual relief on the boy, because as someone who once dated a fifteen year old girl, I believe that, too, to be cruel and unusual punishment.

Hi, my name is Adam, and I'm a keyboard user. I've been using them since I was eight years old. I have a few suggestions, as a sixteen year veteran of your crappy decisions. Only three, so it shouldn't take you too terribly long to read. First of all, please note that the pipe and slash key (| and \) is above the Enter or Return key, and below Backspace. Backspace, you will note, is a

Verizon got pinged for a million bucks for claiming a service was unlimited then disconnecting people. Other ISPs and phone carriers: Take note. I think the next to get hammered will probably be Comcast. They dropped "unlimited" from their advertising (at least for the most part) but they're still disconnecting people who pass an arbitrary limit, without ever actually setting that limit. They

Via Drudge, Harry Reid says something stupid. Here's the quote: “One reason why we have the fires in California is global warming,” Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) told reporters Tuesday, stressing the need to pass the Democrats’ comprehensive energy package. That is so fucking stupid. I don't know where to start. Okay, first of all, last I heard, this fire started when a power pole

Perhaps the Republican party isn't completely made up of knuckleheads and morons: Bobby Jindal is the next governor of Louisiana. He's a Republican, and the last governor was a Democrat and a cretinous douche (but I repeat myself). This doesn't make up for the horrid performance in 2006, but it does give me a little hope for 2008.

Canada is officially the stupidest nation ever. Now, with all my hate for France, that's hard to say. It's really no fun, because I think "Aboot" is a cute word, and I like hockey. But this pretty much tears it: Canadians may soon pay a small tax on every legal music store download... Well, that's not so bad -- sales tax, right?

I've grown more and more bored of college as this semester goes on. I like my teachers, for the most part, and I'm doing well in classes. I'm just ready for it to be over. Counting the days, as it were. In some cases I even count the minutes. Night classes are especially bad (so of course I'm taking three next semester), and so last night I was just so not in the mood for learning about

Kelly Lynch is so stupid they need to prevent her from reproducing. Cassy Fiano has the story over at Wizbang. I don't think Kelly Lynch is really a witch; we should see if she weighs the same as a duck. (If you get this, congratulations, your Dork Card is in the mail.)

One of the Jena 6 jackasses is in jail again, and his genius of a father said: "He's locked up again," Marcus Jones said of his 17-year-old son. "No bail has been set or nothing. He's a young man who's been thrown in jail again and again, and he just has to take it." Let's see: He's in jail for a crime he committed before he and five other young men jumped on one man.

For political gain with a small group of Armenians, the Democrats have betrayed the United States of America and our troops in Iraq. They declared something that happened ninety-two years ago a genocide. It was a march of Armenians by the Ottoman Turks, in which a million Armenians died. Is it a genocide? Probably, but that's not the point. The point is, it happened ninety-two years ago and
