Gone in 60 seconds
This cringe inducing advert left me feeling like I had embarked on a bad acid trip...At any rate, this program is being billed as a GarageBand killer for Windows. Yet, peculiarly, this girl is using a Macbook Pro--nice one Microsoft, you win the jackass card for today.
I especially like this quote from the comments thread:
If I was a CEO and had some dude singing at me, I'd have him drugtested

Franken up now...
from a Washington Post article:
Although Franken trailed Coleman on election night, the Democrat -- thanks in part to the ace work of election lawyer Marc Elias -- has gained steadily ever since. A hand recount of the nearly 3 million ballots cast turned the race into a dead heat, and the recent counting of 933 wrongly rejected absentee ballots (don't ask) yielded a 225-vote edge for Franken heading into today's meeting of the state Canvassing Board, in which a winner -- presumably Franken -- will be named.
So, why won't Franken be a senator later today? Because of pending legal challenges that the incumbent's campaign thinks can sway the outcome -- the most important of which, dealing with the inclusion of 654 allegedly wrongly rejected absentee ballots (from largely pro-Coleman territory), will be decided by the Minnesota Supreme Court.
"We remain convinced that this process is broken and, as a result, the numbers being reported will not be accurate or valid," said Coleman's campaign manager, Cullen Sheehan.

This is why we have recounts!
Franken Up 262 As Canvassing Board Wraps
ST. PAUL (AP) ―Democrat Al Franken holds a 262-vote lead in Minnesota's Senate recount after the state Canvassing Board has wrapped up its work deciding disputed ballots.Franken took the lead from Republican Norm Coleman on Friday and steadily increased it. The board was handling almost entirely Coleman challenges, and rejecting most of them.
There's plenty of drama left. Next week, some 5,000 challenges that were withdrawn earlier will be allocated to the two candidates.
And an estimated 1,600 improperly rejected absentee ballots will be brought into the count at some point. The candidates and election officials have to figure out a process to do that by the end of the year.
Coleman's campaign also went to court Friday. They asked the state Supreme Court to block the Canvassing Board from including possibly double-counted ballots in the recount.

This one is really long
So here's another link. Here's where we start to hear about what's maybe happening to the bail-out money. It's too long for me to post.

I'm sad
I blew the speakers on my amp when I was getting ready to record with Tim Kerr yesterday. Now I have to spend all the money from that on getting them fixed. There goes rent for January.
