As I'm sure the complete lack of posts for over a year has indicated, I am done with blogging. I don't have time for it, and nobody reads anyway. It was fun as a mental exercise, but with the advent of Facebook I can more easily connect with the people I really care about by hanging out there.I'll leave this site up as an archive, but I'm otherwise done with it.Bye!

Rather than re-hash all the unsurprising corruption that has recently been brought to light in Illinois politics, I'll let Michelle Malkin continue her yeoman's work and simply link to her.However, since I prefer to try and create my OWN content, I hereby announce, a DEMOTIVATIONAL POSTER CONTEST with Ol' Blaggie as the focus. Here's a few of my own contributions:Feel free to create your own.

to the 1970's. America just elected the most liberal/Socialist president since Jimmy Carter. Frankly, I'm so embarrassed for America right now I have nothing else to say. So I'll just post this video instead.Enjoy your malaise America.

Ok people,Time for the rubber to meet the road. This is OUR moment, when the American people put aside all the polls, all the propaganda, and in the privacy of the voting booth, make their decision.Get to the polls, VOTE for John McCain. As he has said, This is America, NOTHING is inevitable. Now is the moment that we steer the ship of state away from the Obama shoals and towards Freedom.Many

I've often wondered how it is that national polls can be so far out of whack. I remember in late September, early October of 2000, Al Gore was leading by points in the low teens over George W. Bush in almost all the national polls. Yet when it came down to it, Bush gave Gore a sound drubbing in the election. Why?DJ Drummond explains for us just WHY the national polls are so often wrong, and

I received this e-mail from Fred Thompson the other day. Those of you not on his mailing list may have missed it, so I will reprint it here for you.When John McCain selected Governor Sarah Palin, as his running mate, the Democrats and their far-left constituency let out a primal scream that could be heard from sea to shining sea. How dare he choose someone that they and their pals in the media

I'm back!Well, after spending about 3 months looking for work, I was able to snag a plum position at the local branch of an international corporation. (This was about a month ago) I won't go into details about my new job, other than to say I was able to negotiate them up a bit, and am now making about 15% more at my new job than I was at the old one. Not only that, but it is significantly

Well.I suppose all good things must come to an end. I just wish it hadn't been so abrupt! As of last week I am officially unemployed.I won't go into all the gory details, as I really don't think it would be appropriate. I do think I can give some background though; Over the last week in August I was on a week's vacation so I could watch my kids. As you know I have two special-needs children

Ugh!Like a B-movie zombie the Amnesty bill just refuses to die.More precisely, the Frankenstienien creators of this monstrosity refuse to allow it to die. Bush and his amnesty loving buddies have vowed to keep fighting to have the Amnesty bill is passed. They have even gone so far as to try and buy off the conservative vote in the Senate!Now is the time to keep the pressure on! Continue to call

YES!The Amnesty Bill is dead as a doornail!The American people spoke. We told Congress and the President in no uncertain terms NO AMNESTY, and they were forced to listen. A crucial victory for Freedom and the rule of law was won today, many congratulations all around.However, this is NOT the time to let up! Continue to contact your Senators and Representatives.

Fox News has just reported the happy news that Saddam Hussein, the "Butcher of Bagdad" has been executed. As Rush Limbaugh would say, he has "Assumed Room Temperature".All I can say is 'Good Riddance'. The world is a better, cleaner place with an evil soul like his no longer in it. Hmm. You know, I think that a little song might be in order.A happy, Saddam-free New Year to Iraq and the world!

Well,I guess it's safe to say that I won't have much of a career as a prophet or seer, now isn't it? What kills me about the entire debacle is that it was completely avoidable. The Democrats didn't win, The Republicans lost. There is a big difference there.You see, you can only win when you run on ideas. The Democrats don't have any ideas, other than to Impeach Bush and transform America into

More days pass and YouTube is still allowing Terrorists and thier sympathisers free reign on YouTube while continuing to suppress Conservative and Anti-Jihad videos.They are still refusing to respond to the very public complaints put up by Michelle Malkin and others, further showing thier extreme bias and abject subservience to wacko leftist and terrorist ideologies and groups.I have decided to

You Tube has been overrun by Terrorist apologists and Jihadi sympathizers.As you can see in the title link, Even Michelle Malkin has been kicked off YouTube due to having so many complaints lodged against her.

I, like many people around the world, have been watching the latest round of fighting in the middle east.Peering through the smoke of war, the fog of propaganda and the more recent bouts of Main Stream Media journalistic malfeasance, I think we can begin to see a picture of a dysfunctional society in collapse.

I just made more visual changes. I optimized the web-page code for a 1024x768 or higher screen resolution. The stock "scribe" template is 800x600 optimized. It's a nice template, but when moving from another skin, it can really screw up your layout due to the narrow central writing column. Frankly, it's a bit too small. I'd encourage Blogger.com to ask the skin author for a re-code to

Just when I think that things are about to get better around here, it goes from bad to worse.As many of you know, Erie County is facing a severe budget crisis. If that wasn't bad enough, the Erie County Public Library System is also having to deal with budgetary issues. This is partly due to the financial woes that Erie County is going through, and partly their own fault.About 7 years ago the

Oh my aching jaw...Just a bit of advice from the Weary Man. Do not ever let your dental care go for 6 years! You will regret it, I assure you.This is the mistake I made. 6 years ago I had a tooth go south. Not a cavity mind you, the tooth just got cut off from it's blood supply by all the orthodontic work I'd had done, and finally died. At this point I had a root canal performed on it, and had

Well.. I Finally have my new laptop. I have it up, running and mostly configured the way I want it. In fact I am typing this post on it. It's a nice machine, although I should mention that the video card was NOT a 128 meg card as specified by Newegg.com, it's a 64 meg card. Not that it's really going to matter all that much as I am not likely to be playing any games on it anytime soon. However I

As you know if you read my earlier posts, I am having a storage issue on my home network. While I will still need to expand, I have managed to free up some extra space on the primary storage drive on my server by deleting some more unused and unneeded data. I have slightly less than 30GB left, and that should be enough to last me another month or two. In the meantime I have had to curb some of my

Working at a technical support center can be very rewarding sometimes. Helping people out with a complex technical problem in 15-30 minutes (even after they have spent HOURS trying to fix it) feels great. And the reaction you get from these folks is usually just fantastic. It makes you feel so good just knowing you helped them out in a sticky situation. Fortunately, most of the people you work

Ever have one of those weeks? You know the ones I mean. The "I just can't catch a break!" weeks. It's been one of those for me. This week it's been plumbing issues. Having two kids who are both potty training at the same time is turning out to be an expensive venture as they (and I) discover what can and what cannot be flushed down the toilet. Just for the record, here's a short list;CAN go down

Sorry I haven't posted in so long. Many things to do, not enough time to do them in. You know how it is.Well, things are finally starting to settle down over at Adelphia. The roadmap for the next year or so has been largely laid out for us, and those of us in my division are pretty much assured jobs at the company we will be going with (can't say which one, sorry.) Mostly it's nice not having

Well kiddies, it's official. Time Warner and Comcast have bought Adelphia. In an e-mail sent out to employees and in a press release sent out today, Adelphia's Board of Directors accounced that it has accepted a $17 billion offer from Time Warner and Comcast to buy out Adelphia. This will include nearly all of Adelphia's assets in the 31 states where they have service.What does this mean to me

I haven't mentioned my source of employ up to this point, as it is not really the focus of my blog. But at this time I should mention that the Weary Man is an Adelphia Employee. I work for the upper level tech support in the Buffalo division. As such, I feel it's important to comment on some of the things that have been going on in the media regarding Adelphia. Now, I won't get into corporate

Today at approximately 10 AM, Terry Schiavo's murder in a hospice in Florida was finally, agonizingly, completed. In a final act of cruelty, Michael Schiavo, the archtect of her demise, forced her family out of the room during her last moments. Then, the coward that he is, he did NOT stay with her as she expired, allowing her to die alone with no family around her to comfort her. Welcome to

Heh. Just couldn't resist. Yep, those are real turkeys. They wandered onto my suburban lawn not all that long ago and I got a few good shots of them. Just thought I'd share.

Today is March 17th, St. Patrick's day.All over the world, people are celebrating the life of one of the world's greatest missionaries by going out, partying and getting drunk.Here in Buffalo however, the mood is a tad less festive. With the city in the hands of a state mandated Financial Control board, and Erie County facing major budget shortfalls from 50 years of tax and spend politics,

Well here I am, my very first ever blog. And here you are, my first ever readers. Excited? I know I am. I suppose I should start out by introducing myself. My name is Matt, but you can call me the Weary Man. Why am I weary? Lots of reasons I suppose. Too many to count right now. But I don't want this intro to turn into a whine fest, nor do I want my blog to become that either. Who wants to spend
