Rush Limbaugh

Curious on why I haven't been updating my Weblog everyday?
Well oddly enough Rush Limbaugh voiced his opinion of Weblogs in the closing minutes of his show this afternoon. He says that weblogs are created by want-to-be journalist who have nothing else to do.
Well I have been very busy of late. I have updated my personal website with some neat Quicktime commercials and PDFs. I am also working on other projects off line.
So while most people have the time to write long complex weblogs everyday, I just write one whenever I have the chance, or something worth saying.
Did you know:
It appears that Disney will be releasing a new Haunted Mansion Book The Haunted Mansion: From the Magic Kingdom to the Movies to tie in with the new movie coming out later this year!

As expected there was no traffic heading down to Cape Cod at 5:33pm this evening. I suspected that most people would have taken the day off
and drove down earlier. I did hear that the Sagamore bridge had a 7 mile backup earlier in the day. It took exactly two hours to get from the
Fleet Center on ramp to Orleans.Permalink
