I was recently reminded of my high school yearbook quote, always good words to live by!

“Seize the time… live now.  Make now always the most precious time.  Now will never come again.”

I’m selling a cell phone of mine, the Motorola RAZR V3 (GSM version), on eBay.  If you’re in the market for a GSM phone, or know someone who is, please pass this along to them!  It’ll probably go for $150-200, which is significantly less than the retail price of $400.  Take a look at the eBay listing!

Warning Labels

I’m always amused to read about new government legislation that limits individual rights, but lawsuit-weary companies taking the initiative is really quite odd.  See this article about how several major UK-based chocolate companies are labeling their products with warning labels.

I’m really not surprised by the content of Bush’s State of the Union speech tonight.  It’s the same rhetoric we’ve been hearing for five years, and I’m not sure it’s any more believable than it has been in previous years.  When incentives are created to encourage people to use renewable energy and to reduce their consumption of fossil fuels, then I’ll believe progress has been made.  Words just don’t do it for me ;-)

I do think the mention of Bush and Clinton’s 60th birthdays this year was hilarious.  Watching the State of the Union address is really about finding those few gems of humor!
