Best Pictures from Yesterday

I don't have time to post them all. But here is one that I love.

First from the blogger Iraq The Model

You're a white chocolate eating, homophobic, conspiracy monger. And you're cheap!

... at least that's what I think Zogby's getting at. Here's another round of (in)famous polls.

The poll started out talking about same-sex marriage in one of the first questions. Then suddenly, things turn:

With Valentine's Day approaching, which of the following are you planning to give to your significant other?
Chocolates
Flowers
Jewelry

So, what's this about I'm thinking. Is Zogby gonna sell my email address to some Vermont Teddy Bear company?

How much do you plan to spend on Valentine's Day?

Please tell me which statement comes closest to your own view-Statement A or Statement B?

Statement A: Valentine's Day is a special day when people can do something special to show someone else they love them.
Statement B: Valentine's Day is just a commercial holiday that benefits the greeting card, chocolate, flower, and jewelry industries.

I have to admit that I like this question. It is a true conservative/liberal litmus test. (Or perhaps it indicates how your last meal went, or last year's Valentine's Day for that matter.

Should women send flowers to men on Valentine's Day if they want to show them they love them?

OK, no the PC police are out in force. I actually don't have a problem with it... but I've never, ever gotten flowers from my wife, and I've only gotten shame and blame for missing a flower-appropriate date. Life is unfair for the conservative male, I tell you!

If your significant other were to give you chocolates for Valentine's Day, would you prefer milk chocolate, dark chocolate, or white chocolate?

Here's another "Wizard of Oz" Zogby question. Is he throwing race in the mixture?! What is he getting at! Unless he's really getting specific with the list and selling it to an individual division at Hershey. (Heaven knows he has to make money somewhewre after his ugly performance in the elections)

Is an Internet romance cheating?

Now I'm thinking that Zogby is just satisfying his own wired fetish.

Which of the following is the greatest aphrodisiac or turn-on?

Physical appearance
Wealth
Power
Personality
Intellect

*Sigh* What about having a tattoo of Ronald Reagan? That would be a turn on to me! (note to wife)

How many people are you planning to buy Valentine's Day gifts for?

Ugh. Enough of the Valentine's push!

How old were you when you had your first sexual experience?

Thinking about your spouse, current significant other, or if you are not in a serious relationship, the person you most recently dated, please rate that person's physical appearance on a scale of 1 to 10, with 1 being very unattractive and 10 being beautiful or gorgeous?

same scale is above (1 to 10, with 1 being very unattractive and 10 being beautiful or gorgeous), please rate your own physical appearance.

Um, refused, refused, refused (where's the "I'm I Mormon, you idiot!")

Who would you consider the most influential living African American?

Jesse Jackson
Al Sharpton
Condoleezza Rice
Colin Powell
Oprah Winfrey
Bill Cosby
Clarence Thomas
Quincy Jones
Kweisi Mfume
Julian Bond
Roy Innis
Barack Obama
Other
Not sure

OK, so race is the game here. By the way, what order is this list in!?

JFK was killed by a single gunman, Lee Harvey Oswald, who was acting alone.

... Roswell, New Mexico,...

...1969 moon landing did occur...?

...Jon Benet (ben-AY) Ramsey...

...star O.J. Simpson...

You get the picture.

Essentially, I think Zogby is trying to show that Bush voters (they asked up front who you voted for) are racist, homophobic, wackos who believe in aliens, and beat their wives with boxes of white chocolate (or Vermont Teddy Bears).

Go away Mr. Zogby. Go far away!

Robo-soldier

I think this is so cool:

The rain is turning to snow on a blustery January morning, and all the men gathered in a parking lot here surely would prefer to be inside. But the weather couldn't matter less to the robotic sharpshooter they are here to watch as it splashes through puddles, the barrel of its machine gun pointing the way like Pinocchio's nose. The Army is preparing to send 18 of these remote-controlled robotic warriors to fight in Iraq beginning in March or April.

Breathing help for Renquist?

I understand that on TV you couldn't hear the ventilator helping Renquist breathe. This remarkable man is very sick. Here's my angle of the Oath of Office as it was give... You can clearly hear a ventilator or something helping him breath... plus a special shot of John Kerry right afterward.

First Video from the Oath of Office

The Oath of Office was great! Everyone felt the power of the message that W was putting out there.

Here's a my first video exclusive from the event. Right at the end of the Bush's speech some hecklers tried to muck things up. Caught of tape!

Blogging from the Inaugural

What better way to get back into the blogging spirit than by blogging from a fantastic venue! I have tickets to the Oath of Office on Thursday Afternoon and I'm taking my wife to the Democracy Ball on Thursday night!

Look for audio blogging throughout the day!

Beyond the Mug Shot: Teacher Child Molestor

So, my colleague and I were curious as to what this odd lady looked like. (The mug shot is pretty ugly)

We found the school website but they had taken her picture down from the bios page.

But knowing that school websites are notoriously slow to react to things we thought we might try to guess what the picture name was for Mrs. Sarah Suzanne Bench-Salorio. Bingo:

There's really nothing to this story on my end that I want to add, I just like to show off my web sleuthing skills.
