The Kleptocracy: Write Your Congressperson (I Did)
http://thekleptocracy.blogspot.com/2007/08/write-your-congressperson-i-did.html
Tuesday, August 7, 2007. Write Your Congressperson (I Did). The ill-named Protect America Act. Passed the U.S. House of Representatives with 227 yeas to 183 nays. You've probably heard of this bill, though named something more appropriate like The Warantless Wiretapping Act. More importantly, perhaps, is the incredulous idea that 41 democrats. His previous illegal actions, essentially clearing. Him of any wrongdoing. I'm writing to express my extreme disapproval of your vote in role call 836 for the "Pro...

The Kleptocracy: April 2007
http://thekleptocracy.blogspot.com/2007_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 30, 2007. Upon rearranging the living room furniture this weekend, we discovered that our living room is too small. That is, we rediscovered. It Our tiny space was packed with a couch, loveseat, giant chair, piano, and no fewer than five other pieces. No worries. It's not leather.). Thus began Mission: Sofa. Here's the deal: Long's Landing committed to giving us $200 trade-in credit for our current three piece set. That still leaves us $900 short of owning the couch of our dreams...Got m...

Saturday, April 12, 2008. Ah, my poor neglected blog. Maybe this post will breathe some life into you. Obama was in Bloomington today for a semi-surprise visit. He was traveling from Columbus to Terre Haute, and made a stop at the Women's Little 500 race. We arrive about five minutes before he stepped off the bus, but still managed to wrangle some excellent views. I even got to shake his hand! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

The Kleptocracy: October 2007
http://thekleptocracy.blogspot.com/2007_10_01_archive.html
Thursday, October 4, 2007. I stumbled upon a video of Dante Bucci. I've never seen these things before, which makes a bit of sense since they were invented only seven years ago. I'm completely mesmerized, and I must own one. That seems to create a problem, as only 5000 or so currently exist, and they're all handmade in Switzerland. I found two in eBays past, with winning bids of £3,850.00 and. 163;4,197.97. My only recourse may be to try and build one myself. Hear more at the HangBox. Try all 31 flavors.

The Kleptocracy: December 2010
http://thekleptocracy.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
Sunday, December 19, 2010. Since I'm one of those gear-junkie type photographers, I spend a lot of time researching camera bodies and lenses. My obsession has even helped a friend or two pick a lens (and get a good deal). My go-to resource has always been The Digital Picture. Bryan has ridiculously in-depth reviews, sample photos, and recommendations. Today, though, I added another resource to the list: LensHero. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Bloomington, IN, United States.

The Kleptocracy: Guns for Peace
http://thekleptocracy.blogspot.com/2007/07/guns-for-peace.html
Monday, July 30, 2007. According to Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, selling arms in the Gulf will help counter terrorism and "bolster forces of moderation." No, really. I'm not even making this up. Look at this:. Http:/ www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php? The new sales to Arab countries, notably Saudi Arabia and other Gulf states, will be balanced with a more than 25 percent increase in military aid to Israel over the next 10 years. This will enable the Jewish state to keep its qualitative mi...
