Apple Strike one

Well we called apple today and we apparently will have to PROVE that it wasn’t accidental.
My son is 18, this is the first computer he has ever purchased, he bought it with his own money. He is active in facebook and school and has a father who blogs loudly.
With currently life expectancy he has 50+ years of computer purchases ahead of him.
We are heading to the apple store to determine if any of those future purchases will be of apple equipment and to determine if my first personal experience of Apple quality and support will convince me to steer people away from the company.
So far it’s apple 0 and Squat 1 but we will go direct to the store and see. I’ll update you in a few hours.
Q: How bad a candidate is Dede Scozzafava?

Ny23 race? What NY 23 race?

I’ve been checking the channels looking for the Palin endorsement story.
I have not found ANYONE mentioning it.
Zip, Zero Nada!
Fox is talking about debating Al Gore on global warming.
Morning Joe is talking the Health Plan, (and O’Donnell was rather fair on it), the Airplane stuff and Chuck Todd’s shaving.
Imus is talking the plane stuff and the baseball playoffs and a bit of racing.
CNN, is talking swine flu and reports that Joe Wilson’s wife has it
But I haven’t found a word on Palin and NY-23. What does that tell me?
There is a whole hour to go but we will see.
It tells me that either these guys are just not on the ball or that they seek to minimize the effect of the Palin endorsement. My guess is they figure Hoffman may have it and they don’t want to point the finger at Sarah on this.
Democrats don’t want this because they don’t want to promote a potential Palin victory
The NRCC doesn’t want to promote it because it is an embarrassment to them and their candidate.
Thus nobody wants to talk about it. We will have to wait till Rush’s show to see things happen.
If big news happens and everyone ignores it has it happened? The MSM wants to find out.
Update: the Washington Post has it online. If they can push TV coverage to the weekend they might be able to minimize it. From the Fix:
Sarah Palin’s decision to endorse the Conservative party candidate over the Republican nominee in a special House election in upstate New York is the latest example that the former Alaska governor’s allegiance is to her conservative principles rather than the edicts of the party.
“Republicans and conservatives around the country are sending an important message to the Republican establishment in their outstanding grassroots support for Doug Hoffman: no more politics as usual,” wrote Palin on her Facebook page.
She also cited former president Ronald Reagan’s belief that “blurring the lines” was not the way to re-build the Republican party and added: “The Republican Party today has decided to choose a candidate who more than blurs the lines, and there is no real difference between the Democrat and the Republican in this race.”
Will the deluge of coverage come, or will it wait till the democrats and national republicans come up with a counter.
