President Barack Obama
Please click here to see how the Barackets are doing against the nation after Round 2.
After Round 1 of the 2011 NCAA March Madness Tournament, President Barack Obama’s safe “presidential style” Barackets is beating 11,336 of about six million brackets, or about 99.8% of them!
Da Prez is where he is after Round 1 by predicting 28 of 32 correct picks in the round! That’s 3 better than where he was at this point in 2010.

Welcome back to daylight savings time (DST), or what should be regular time as far as I’m concerned. This is actually the artificial time change to “spring ahead” the 1 hour for the majority of the year. But if it’s for most of the year, it should be the standard, in my opinion. It’s only a matter of time before you get revolutions and change when the minority rules.
It never ceases me every time I have to change the “clocks” of many many “clocks” I have to change. That doesn’t even include the ones I don’t have to change, like the one on my computer which changes itself after I had set it up to do so!
This year, I am “down” to a “merciful” eleven clocks/watches! ELEVEN!!!
I LOVE this quote because it is EXACTLY what I think of conventional wisdom for its value and people’s confusion over it and true wisdom.
Sometimes, conventional wisdom is just outdated. Other times, it was just stupid to begin with, based on any number of ridiculous “justifications”. It may be appealing to the senses, come with a good tag line, cheap to come by cause it’s everywhere, but it’s just bad, in general. There are exceptions, of course, but I’m standing by my perspective on the matter!
In late January, I proposed a Facebook meme to share a love song a day for February that contains Valentine’s Day.
Here were the first, second and third sets of seven songs I had shared.
Below is the fourth and final set of seven great love songs I shared, with some short commentary for each. Actually, for the Februaries with 29 days, I’ve included a bonus song.
