Obama vs Clinton in the Senate

I just found this great site on Digg breaking down the bills that have been passed and proposed by each candidate. This is the information we need to know to be able to make the correct choice. And if you don't trust what this lady is saying follow the links and look it up. Quite insightful and important information!

Obama For My Mama

We were very close. The video doesn't do it justice!

Update

After hanging out on Wikipedia looking up info for leading class discussion on Wednesday, I found out that Foucault died on my exact date of birth, June 25, 1984. Coincidence....? Probably...

Next up: Attending (not presenting) the SCMS Conference in Philadelphia, PA March 6 - 10

Discipline and Punishment

You start naming your biceps after books written about prisons, panopticism, power, and other sweet, sweet nothings. Nah, I enjoy and respect these readings, but that still doesn't take away from the fact that I didn't get my much needed daily dose of organic Vitamin D.

Yup

I think this is around my 3rd to 4th attempt at setting up and maintaining a blog. Every previous blog I began I would start with a post detailing how I think I will use my blog, my views on life, and whatever witty (or efforts at wit) ideas of what I thought people should know about me. Seeing how those blogs did not pan out, I will spare any potential reader from my "intro to blogging post". That said, let's do this...
