Fox Shakeup

Changes.

As the new year rolls on and the new president takes office, Fox News has announced they will not be renewing contracts of several prominent contributors. A network spokesperson has confirmed that conservative political commentator George Will, actress Stacey Dash, and Republican strategist Ed Rollins will not be renewing their contracts with Fox News, along with journalist Marvin Kalb and columnist Cal Thomas.

But it’s on the App Store….

I have a great idea! How about I let China know everything about me so that I can look googly-eyed on my selfie.
Security of your person and privacy is and always has been your job. It’s a silly request, but I’d ask that people start taking that job seriously. Especially if you’re one of the special ones who demand access to the company network on your own device.
Things you should think about before installing anything:
1. Do I really need this application?
2. What do I know about the people who wrote this app?
3. If I install this app, do I know what it is really doing?
4. Is there anything past, present or future that I wouldn’t want Russia, China, the kid down the block or the mafia to know about me on this device?
5. If it requires a network connection, where and who in the physical world am I giving that information?
YMMV based on your level of paranoia, but those are my guidelines.

Time Remaining

Bye, bye citizen Obama.
As many of you know, I wasn’t a Trump fan. I didn’t believe he could defeat Clinton. I had great doubts. I lacked understanding. I still have concerns about his presidency, primarily because I am a western Canadian. I am a believer in trade and I think some of the promises that President Trump has made will impact my region and my country. C’est la vie. Mea culpa to those who knew better, I didn’t.
Having said all that, were I an American citizen, had I a vote, I would have crawled over broken glass, volunteered to clip the wire at the Somme, been on Utah on the 6th of June to vote against Hillary Clinton.
I would have voted Trump.
She who lied over the caskets of fallen diplomats. She who instigated the entire Libyan folly. She of the “Russian reset”. She with such disregard and disrespect of American, Canadian, and the other ‘Five Eyes’ confidentiality that she decided it was okay to send it in the clear. That beast had to be kept from the Presidency. Regardless of what happens, regardless of my doubts, regardless of the whiny D’s in the States, this is the best day this year.
She had to lose and I am grateful to the American people who, with their vote, with their franchise, are always right and in my opinion, made the correct choice.
I’m happy for you. Drink ALL THE BEER because I am.
*Note, posting after this will be light to non-existent from me today, mainly because I’m drinking all the beer….Happy Inauguration Day!
