McCain's RNC Backdrop: Walter Reed MIDDLE SCHOOL (9)
on
Talking Points Memo (246) permalink
A lot of people were asking tonight: what the hell was that mansion up behind John McCain tonight during the first part of the speech? As I noted below, the TV close-ups only showed McCain's head against the grass in the picture, which made it look like he was reprising his famed green screen performance. And when they panned out, it looked like McCain was showing off one of his mansions. Well, several readers have ...Shared by Brian (24) Chad (127) Florian (2) Graeme (82) iBspoof (12) Kristina (28) Michael (33) rkalajian (39) siwaporn (348)Contribute comment -

Sure, it sounds like a kids’ cereal or, if you’re going in a more adult direction, an alcoholic apple-based drink—and isn’t it weird that those two things share a name—but this AppleJack is something else entirely. We’ve mentioned the troubleshooting and repair utility before, but there’s good news for folks who have been having trouble with their Leopard-based machines: the newly released AppleJack 1.5 is at long last compatible with the polka-dotted cat.

But, then again, when isn't the mood right for a Demi Moore story about breast milk? (Answer: Christmas dinner.

So it's official - John McCain has thrown a Hail Mary and tapped Alaska Governor Sarah Palin as his running mate. The trad med types are ga-ga about what a game-changing choice Palin is. And they're right. It is a game-changer. The Palin pick takes a race already leaning toward Obama and pushes it further into his corner. Why? Because Sarah Palin is the most unqualified VP nominee in modern history, with the possible exception ...Contribute comment -

Sheer awesomeness: this week at Nvidia's Nvision tradeshow, Mythbusters hosts Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman used a massive 2100 barrel paint gun turret to create a pixel art rendition of the Mona Lisa in under 275 milliseconds. The thesis of the experiment was absurd — something about how only an Nvidia GPU can handle the raw processing power required to generate 45 square pixels of pixel art — but we're still impressed.
