Newt on Sotomayor:
"Imagine a judicial nominee said 'my experience as a white man makes me better than a Latina woman.' Wouldn't they have to withdraw? New racism is no better than old racism,"
Gingrich was referring to a comment Sotomayor made during remarks at the University of California, Berkeley's annual Judge Mario G. Olmos Law and Cultural Diversity Lecture.
"A wise Latina woman with the richness of her experience would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male who hasn't lived that life," Sotomayor said.

That should play just awesome with the Hispanic community. Way the make the tent smaller Newt!
Happy Birthday Sean!
I set up my new birthday computer monitor last night. It is awesome. My old monitor is going to become the treadmill monitor, but I'm going to put it on a swing arm so it can swing about and act as a TV for the kids in the basement. The kids will also get some beanbag chairs for down there.
Birthday Happies, Sean!
ION, we are getting new computers at work next week. I'll get rid of my current dual-monitor setup, and replace it with quad-monitors (with two monitors placed above the other two).
Also, instead of my three work computers (and a KVM switch) I'll have one computer with virtualization so I can still have multiple computers set up.
That will rock muchly.
Cute house. But you don't want to live in the suburbs.
This is our house. [link]
The suburbs aren't bad...
It looks like a nice house. It would be about 1/5th that price in my suburban town though. Yikes.

Tarrytown! For suburbs, you could do worse. (I lived in Ossining, NY for a year. It's really beautiful around the Hudson.)
