I want to make my heartfelt apologies to the following:
Sorry Dish Network. The current economic mess has forced me to cancel your service.
Sorry NetFlix. I'll be able to entertain myself without your service for quite some time.
Sorry Baen. I will not be purchasing any more webscriptions in the foreseeable future. Thank the politicians and a greedy Wall Street.
Sorry Amazon. Blame the Wall Street bankers and investment gurus for my stopping all purchases.
Sorry eBay. I canceled the Paypal account and stopped all searches and purchases on your site. Not only does the current economy cause this, but also your irrational changes to what was once a fun experience.
Sorry Microsoft. I can no longer afford your ill conceived, unworkable software in the current economic climate. Maybe if you didn't off-shore your workforce you could be part of the solution and not the problem.
Sorry Dell or HP or any other electronic manufacturer. No new computer this year or next unless the economy changes rapidly for the better. Maybe if you didn't off-shore your workforce you could be part of the solution and not the problem.
Sorry banks and credit card companies. Your policies are to blame for this crisis! I for one do not need to feed your greed. You can take your high interest, teaser rates, and other BS elsewhere.
Sorry insurance companies, mutual funds, and stockbrokers. You bought into this financial mess and now you can eat it! Cash may be king, but Gold and Silver are for real.
Sorry Republican and Democrat politicans. I don't feel the need to vote for a bunch of politicians that have placed lobbyist, special interest groups, and "fat cat" financial moguls above the rights and economic well being of the American middle class.
Sorry China, Indonesia, etc. I don't need your cheap crap. I'll be buying very little for the foreseeable future and what I buy will be "Made in America."
Ron Paul is right! Maybe, just maybe, people will start to listen to what he has to say. If it isn't too late that is.

Ron Paul Donation Drive January 21st, 2008
Ron Paul is having a donation drive for his Presidential campaign today. As a supporter, I've made a small donation and encourage anyone who believes in freedom, democracy, the Constitution, and economic sanity to also make a donation.
Having watched the donation totals on the website, Ron Paul 2008 , I am astounded at the breadth of support across this country. From Maine to California, from Florida to Washington, and not forgetting Hawaii and Alaska, the people are voting with their wallets. In the hour I sampled, donations came in at the rate of about $1500 per minute with an average donation of around $85. Amazing is the only word that comes to mind.
What is even more amazing is the support from those states where the caucuses and primaries have already taken place. A big hand to these supporters. Ron Paul may have not done so well in some of these contests, but his supporters still believe in the message and are shooting for the Republican National Convention and not just their own individual state.
The three weeks of this quarter have amounted to over $2.1 million so far and this day isn't over yet! For those who don't want to do the math, that's about $100,000 per day average. What other candidate is getting small donation from the average American at that rate? Very few is my guess, instead they are relying on large donation from the wealthy and businesses.
Keep up the good work people and remember to attend and vote in your upcoming caucus or primary.

Ron Paul
Ok, I've finally broke down and started paying attention to Presidential politics. I got around to looking at the candidates for the Republican nomination after avoiding it as much as possible last year and have picked Ron Paul to support.
Why Ron Paul? My answer is simple. He stands for nearly everything I believe in with only a few minor exceptions.
1. He supports a strong national defense without our spending billions every year on military installations around the world that we shouldn't have and don't need. For example, why are we still involved in Kosovo a decade later? Why do we still have bases in Germany when it's obvious they don't want us there? Why are there 40,000 service members stationed in the Middle East? I'm not talking about the number in Iraq or Afghanistan here. I'm talking Kuwait, Qatar, the UAE, Sinai, etc.
2. He is for a smaller federal government. Scrape the Department of Education, reduce Homeland Security to a reasonable size and reduce the overall size of the federal government.
3. He supports strict enforcement of immigration laws, control of visas, the birthright law and NO Amnesty.
These are just a few of the reasons that I'm supporting Ron Paul. To find out more about this man, I suggest you visit the Ron Paul website
