For years I greatly admired Senator John McCain. He had a reputation for being a political maverick and seemed to vote with his conscience instead of with his party. When it came down to choosing between what was right and what the GOP wanted, John McCain more-often-than-not chose what was right.
Then he set his sights on the White House.
I voted for McCain when he was running against Bush prior to the 2000 elections. He was a different candidate back then. When he lost to George W. Bush, it was like the GOP beat the heart out of him. Now he just feels like more of the same. I suppose that’s why I’m leaning more towards Obama these days. I’m not entirely sure what we’d be getting in terms of a President, but at least I can expect that it won’t fully be business as usual with Obama at the helm.
11 Things We hate About iTunes. They stopped at 11? Granted, they hit most of the major areas where I dislike iTunes, but I would’ve gone much further…
Can Trent Reznor’s TV Show Save HBO?. Honestly, if Trent were to create a show for HBO based on Year Zero, I’d subscribe to it. The whole ARG surrounding the release of Year Zero was incredibly well put together. Unless HBO were to screw it up… a YZ series could and should be pretty epic.

(First things first: Sorry for the shakiness.) I shot this at last night’s Nine Inch Nails concert at the Gwinnett Center in Duluth, GA. The show was epic, to say the least. The song is Discipline off of their latest album, The Slip. See http://theslip.nin.com for more info.
You can also view this over at Viddler. (You can also download the video from there as well.)

Just in case a torrent of posts comes through your RSS feed… I apologize for the inconvenience. I was playing around with trying to import Disqus comments into my site as regular comments… and they were imported as posts instead. As you can see, the experiment failed miserably.
I like Disqus, but dislike being locked in to them. I may risk losing 40 comments or so, but I’m close to disabling Disqus for good this time.
