U.S. Economic Confidence Best Since 2008

More realistic news on the economy. This is what happens when you keep the GOP out of office long enough for them not to be constantly raping the economy to the advantage of the wealthiest Americans. Still no credit from most Americans, it seems, for Obama's amazing steady hand in turning around the economy, in the face of what was going to be the second Great Depression. It defies all understanding. If GOP Americans care about deficits, in deeds, not empty words, they will keep Obama in office. No, growth isn't spectacular, but fast paced greed is what got us into the mess. Remember, slow and steady wins the race and the world economy is not helping the American economy to recover faster, as both Europe and Asia are facing problems with growth in their own markets.

Bahamian Jubilee time: The PLP and Dame Marguerite Pindling

While many Bahamians were aiming their televisions, radios and internet feeds towards the Queen's Jubilee ceremonies in the United Kingdom , Bahamian PLPs were having a little Jubilee party of their own at Government House . It was a sad day for democracy , transparency and accountability in the Bahamas . Unbelievably, the new Bahamian government, under the leadership of the PLP , has decided to appoint Dame Marguerite 'the champagne lady' Pindling to the position of Deputy Governor General .

Thank you to Being a Geek for sharing. Game of Thrones is fantastic. If you haven't read the books , read them. In the world of fantasy literature, there have been a lot of average writers, but three great writers stand as colossi . In my view, they have defined the genre: J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings and the mythology it spawned. Robert Jordan's The Wheel of Time and the mythology it spawned. George R.R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire and the mythology it spawned. And if you haven't seen the HBO show yet, then get on it. The show is approaching the end of Season 2. Season 1 was fantastic. Season 3 should be amazing as the show's popularity has amped up HBO's spending. It's available via HBO On Demand or catch it on HBO on Sunday evenings. Another HBO show that is amazing is Boardwalk Empire , be sure to check that out. It's about Prohibition and features Al Capone as one of the characters.
