2:03:52 AM   “The Fighting Whities”  Team picks white man mascot to make point  // Hmmm.....these folks can't be the first to do this, right ?   As I hear this discussed, I am amazed that I have been a baseball fan 30+ years and never once considered why the Reds were called the Reds ?  I truly believe I grew up in a generation which had (has ?) stepped away from the bigotry of our parents generation.   All too many things which are offensive just never seemed that way as when someone says Reds, I think the Cinncinnati baseball team.

1:53:11 AM   // Did anyone tape the 9/11 program Sunday night ?  Dish Player had a major hiccup (more like a gag) during the taping (disking?).  All we got was about 1 minute of black screen :-(  Can anyone help ?

1:50:40 AM   "United We Stand Against the Thief-in-Chief." Police Raid, Shut Down My Booksigning in San Diego  //  I find myself thinking only in America could something so American get this treatment.  If this was Chicago, Michael Madigan would be at the root of these kinds of shenanigans.
