Boy, I thought this town was tough for DUIs.

This officer arrested his own wife for driving under the influence…

Either I have a lot of alcoholic friends or this town is really tough though. I can honestly say that only 3 out of the first 15 male friends that come to mind have not received a DUI at some point in their life, while living in this city (Bismarck).

Remember I don’t condone drinking and driving, but I think the rate of DUIs in Bismarck is increased due to our completely sub-par public transportation service (or lack thereof).

Maybe if the city would direct funds towards bettering the public transportation instead of hiring more cops the problem would rectify itself (to an extent).

What do you think?

With the recent close of NetBank, I wonder if the FDIC limit is too low?

Apparently there was a combined loss of over a million dollars by the members.

With inflation over the last few decades, is a $100k limit by FDIC too low?

Our house is officially on the market as of today. If anyone wants to buy an almost 4000 sq ft house with a pool, hot tub, and huge bar in a great neighborhood let me know. 😉

On Friday afternoon we got an accepted offer on a house just out of town on an acre and a half lot. Hopefully our current house sells in time to make the deal come to reality. I think it should though, it’s a great deal for a humongous house…

The new house is a little smaller and no pool, but it does have a seven car garage!

Looks like a State Representative (who just happens to be a democrat) got caught with some nude pictures on the thumbdrive he was using for his presentation.

I stumbled across this on digg.com and the best comment was this (in response to another commenting that he was a democrat):

Of course he’s a Democrat, if he was a Republican it would’ve been a little boy.

I can’t wait till this becomes a reality!

Your next laptop could have a continuous power battery that lasts for 30 years without a single recharge thanks to work being funded by the U.S. Air Force Research Laboratory. The breakthrough betavoltaic power cells are constructed from semiconductors and use radioisotopes as the energy source. As the radioactive material decays it emits beta particles that transform into electric power capable of fueling an electrical device like a laptop for years.

This will totally revolutionize how we work and play with longer lasting gadgets…
