These are both so wonderful !
Cant' we have 4 more?
Come on ... Face it ! There is no one better qualified to be the next president. Make him be the next one, he should have to clean up his own mess. Whoever follows this guy has a tough road ahead. All that he has done, all that we have let him do. We will be 20 years recovering, if we can. I am thinking that the next president is just taking one for the team. A cleaner. Or, more like a janitor.
Just around the corner.

Joost - My 1st Impression
I got my invitation to Joost Friday morning at work. During lunch, I shot home to download and install. ( yes, I was a little excited)
I am located right in the center of Georgia, a small town. ( We are getting our 1st Starbucks next month ) Installed with no trouble at all. It is installed on my Sony Vaio Desktop, 3 ghz, 1 gig of ram, running Win XP. I have a cable modem (ISP: COX) kicking the internet in at 7k.
My purpose is to actually "use" Joost. I have a cable modem, but no cable TV ! We get TV from our rabbit ears, 6 channels. We do not watch much TV, just the news and Survivor. Mostly PBS when we do sit in front of the glowing box. We spend allot of time doing other things...
My wife took little interest, ho hum. (She was not impressed by Ubuntu either) As long as she can surf, she's happy.
Overall, Very Impressive.
The navigation is intuitive, easy to pick up. A great channel selection. I enjoy documentaries and there are plenty to choose from.
I spent an hour watching a deep sea diving doc. Picture was perfect, sound was great. There was no lags or jumps.
There are commercials, short and sweet. A total of 3 during an hour. There are some 'brought to you by' 10 sec screens before music vids.
My wife watched 'Rehearsals' for a good while. Bands jamming and playing in the studio. Actually had to search and download a band, "Jupiter Rising". So, you get exposure to a wide scope of global programing.
There is a lot of "on demand" programming. Indi movies and short comedy or sports programs.
I found I could still use the computer to surf while Joost played. Surfing, checking email ect with no problems or annoyances.
Built in are some widgets, a chat box to talk to other viewers watching the same program. An RSS reader, which I have not set up yet.
The program guide is a little busy. Probably because you are expecting something like a time and channel scroll. Took just a short time to get accustomed to it and now it is no trouble.
As I went to bed, I selected "Comedy Centrals" channel and just let it play while I slept. Got up, still running, no hangs during the night.
In closing, Joost delivered to my end of the swamp, a great product, easy to use and with content I enjoyed.
