Somewhat blustery here so far, but otherwise we’re not doing anything especially different. Hope all is well where you all are.

It was one of those things where, even though you knew it was coming, you weren’t entirely surprised.

On Usenet, a fellow named Greg D. posted, “I’ve been searching, with no success, for a Kingdom Come Theme for Windows 95.”
I have no idea what this means. I’m sure that lots of other people do, but I don’t. However, anyone who reads this column on any sort of regular basis knows that lack of knowledge on a subject has never slowed me down before.
So, ever-eager to be helpful, I composed the following, which I dubbed, “The Theme To Kingdom Come.” Considering I wrote it online in about ten minutes, it’s not half-bad. Not half-good either, but not half-bad. I’m not even going to bother to tell you what super-hero-related tune it’s set to; it should be fairly obvious. Heck, if it’s not obvious, then telling you wouldn’t help.
Live blogging the final debate

It must really bite to be Leonardo DeCaprio right about now.
Fourteen nominations. Titanic picked up fourteen nominations, and he couldn’t score one for Best Actor despite the nominations of his co-star, the film itself, the director, and an assortment of other nods. The film is that rare combination of box office and artistic juggernaut, and with all that momentum going, he still didn’t get nominated. And the killer is, if he had gotten a best actor nomination, the film would have set a new record, beating out All About Eve (with which it is tied.)

Live blogging the Presidential debate will begin here
My long-term prediction: Election day will launch a lengthy legal battle and on December 21 the Supreme Court decides in favor of Romney…thereby fulfilling the Mayan calendar end-of-the-world-date.
That said, I will endeavor to be even handed in my commenting on the debate. See you shortly.
