Some of you may have heard, and others perhaps not, but in any case… it’s true, I am now an expectant father! Jess and I are both very excited, as are our families. I realize many of you are saying to yourselves, “well it’s about time!” but now is just really the perfect time. I can’t wait!

Now for the meat:

So in Fedora Core 3 we now have SELinux enabled by default in the installation. I decided to leave it enabled because security is a “Good Thing” (right?) and I knew I was going to have to get familiar with it at some point.

Man. All the left leaning folks I talk to/read the blogs of (none of whom voted for Kerry, but rather, against Bush) have sure been belly aching since the dust settled from the election. Everyone is saying things like “are Americans really so stupid?” IMHO, it’s fairly obvious we’re NOT stupid enough to vote Mr. Wishy-Washy Charile Brown into the white house, which should be considered a good thing. And with the lack of a better alternative, we chose the only candidate we had left, who, in all honesty, isn’t doing a bad job whether you agree with his principles and policies or not.

What has struck me as particularly funny about the aftermath is the “disbelief” expressed by the bloggers out there. This article captures it. My fave quote:

“The longer the Democrats pretend that their vacuum of righteousness is actually reaching the public at large, helped by NPR, the more trouble they will be in. Be it an internet wasteland like New Mexico or fat pipe rich Connecticut, it doesn’t matter. George W. Bush kicked your blogging ass.”

Update: FWIW… I never stated above that Bush has done / is doing a “good job”, and never said there aren’t any problems with how things are being run. The point of this post was to note the apparent disbelief of the bloggers out there who thought their endorsement of Kerry signified more than simply the notation of their own opinion.

This is an excellent commentary addressing a lot of points that are commonly misunderstood about the Macintosh. If you’re a Windows user who has become disenchanted with what you might have thought was a decent system, this is definitely worth your time to read.
