Potpourri

Thats right a variety of items are going to show in this post:

The Democrats have gathered in Beantown (thats Boston) for the Democratic National Convention. My only complaint about it is that it is there that they announce who is getting the parties nomination. It seems like Kerry got that months ago after the second or third primary was held. So there has been no real anticipation as to which the Democrats will officially endorse, that was decided months ago.

Moving on

There is some discussion as to when digital Tv will be a standard, and what that means exactly. Here you can find out some of the details as to what it all means. I have been trying to push off getting a new TV until I get one that will accept the new digital signals without the set top box. Time will tell, I may buckle before that happens.

Oh that was the other thing, a girl from my old high school is now Playboy's Playmate of the Month (August). Pilar Lastra looks fantastic ~ whew!

A new Hey Rube was posted today. Of course HST is talking politics & football, right on schedule.
