Why no Jokes Now Sean Hannity?
Why no joking this week about how ridiculous Global Warming is this week? They do it every time it snows as if that's proof that there is no warming, I guess this week reaches that same level of proof. Except for most people aren't idiots and know that a snow storm or a hot weather event aren't proof of anything. No doubt the Fox audience doesn't know the difference, but it's been repeatedly proven that Fox viewers are the most poorly informed. That would be funny, except for you get the impression that the Hannity's and Beck's of Fox know their audience is that gullible and use it to their own personal financial advantage.

Netflix price increases...It's still a great deal
I think we've all gotten a little spoiled. Remember when DRIVING to Blockbuster to rent from their lame inventory to spend $3/movie for 3 days, or 1 day for a new release? Netflix has nearly every movie ever made on DVD, the streaming catalog is good, but it has huge gaps and with the studios playing hardball there will be fewer titles OR it's going to get more expensive (remember people Netflix is paying the studios and companies like SONY are looking at 10x price increases to Netflix...who do you think is going to pay for that?).
Redbox is cute, but again now I'm picking up and dropping off movies. With a two DVD plan and Streaming I can watch a couple of dozen movies a month. Well under a dollar a piece and I'm not driving to Walmart or the 7-11 to chose from the few dozen movies that are in a Redbox. Based on selection, convenience and price Netflix is still a steal if your a movie fan who is interested in movies beyond the latest blockbuster. It's funny that people are expecting prices to stay the same AND get a wider selection of streaming titles. Look at the enviornment Netflix operates in, they aren't raising prices to increase revenue (solely), the cost of doing business is going up thanks to the studios. I guess you cancel your account in disgust, and go see your movies at the theater. What's that run you about 3-4 months of netflix after the increase? Even at $16/month you can watch a LOT of movie for the price of 5 gallons of gas or 4 Lattes from Starbucks. Everyone hates price increases, but come on people think.

Clown - Brewer's office knew, but she didn't?
I so won't miss this clown's behavior or most of the politicians in this backwards state. She tries to make Napolitano look bad only to make herself look like an idiot. Even if she wasn't informed, she's the one who has apparently surrounded herself with incompetent oafs who don't think they need to tell the Governor things.
Instead of trying to make political hay out of this, she should be asking why her deputies don't inform her of things like this, which should be there main job.

God's Plan?
Josh Hamilton says God has a plan. Does that mean he is God's vessel by throwing that ball when he did and where he did in accordance with God's desire to take a father from his son while that son watches?
Absolutely. I haven’t yet. I’m going to give this situation time to, you hate to think sink in, but I can’t imagine what they’re going through right now. I can’t imagine. All I can think about is praying for them and knowing that God has a plan. You don’t always know what that plan is when those things happen, but you will.
