You Must Be Having Me On. Oh, Wait: We’re Talking About The Left

by Smitty Via Da Tech Guy, the DC Examiner reports that the Rally to Restore Sanity/March to Keep Fear Alive is really more about the latter than the former. Now, I have better things to do that waste my time on Commode-y Central’s sad little gathering of paid stooges. For an example of filming at […]

Forget Client #9 And Whatshername: Give Me Da Tech Guy And William Jacobson

by Smitty Somebody whose blog-fu exceeds mine handily is Da Tech Guy. While out galavanting with RSM, he paid a visit to William Jacoboson of Legal Insurrection, another premier blogger.

Da Tech Guy Gets the Nudie-lanche

It’s kind of like the Instalanche, except Dan Collins of Piece of Work in Progress includes a photo of a naked woman named Kara DioGuardi. I’d never heard of Kara DioGuardi before but . . . well, she’s apparently famous for being naked. NTTAWWT.

NY-25 Prediction: Ann Marie Buerkle Will Score Landslide Victory Over Dan Maffei

HANCOCK, N.Y. — Pete Da Tech Guy and I were driving up Highway 17 toward Binghamton when we got the call from the Lonely Conservative, informing us that Ann Marie Buerkle’s victory is now a near-certainty. However, that’s not the headline in the Syracuse Post Standard: Dan Maffei leads Anne Marie Buerkle by 12 points in new poll Why is […]
