Sign Suggestions for the Rally for Sanity

Since I can't go to the rally for Sanity (since well I have work to do, okay I'm not a big fan of big crowds) I am helping contribute my suggesting sign slogans for folks who might need help coming up with slogans. I call these my Sanity Sign Slogans (or SSS's)

Mr President. I know you were born in this country. I know you aren’t a Muslim. I know you aren’t a socialist. I know you can do better.

Disagreeing with something doesn’t make it communist.

Louder isn’t better.

Let’s not take opinions as facts and facts as opinions.

I don’t care whose fault it is. It’s all of our faults if we don’t make it better.

It’s easier to complain about something rather than fix it.

Yea for sanity! The other mental state.

Sanity may not sell in short run but it’s much better for the long run.

This sign made in the USA. (So see we do make stuff.)

Anti-defamatory Pro-Sense.

“We the People” pretty much means everybody.

I’m only here cause there’s nothing good on TV right now.

I’m not angry but I still think things could be better.

Compromise is not a sign of weakness…

I would have been here soon but I’ve been working.

Things I don't understand... (Note not comprehensive)

Why they have to wrap dog chains in tightly sealed plastic containers that I need a knife to open...

Why anybody would want to run for politics?

What makes Jennifer Lopez qualified to be an Idol judge at 12 million dollars?

How could TBS cancel My Boys after not letting two of the stars work on other shows due to contractual agreements?

The Mets...

Why people don't seem to comprehend that if you disagree with an opinion that doesn't make the other opinion wrong?

Calculus... It truly was take it and then forget it.

Carrot Top...

Why did Roger Clemens and Barry Bonds feel the need to take steroids?

The Bills...

A Brief History of Time.

Why do I like pizza but not spaghetti?

Is there really a need to Twitter?

Apple

Okay I admit it. I watched the Apple press event today. I even delayed my lunch so I could eat while watching it. Yes I admit it I am a geek.

My thoughts.

First the negative: I am not impressed with Ping at all. I really don't care what music my friends are downloading. I like music because I like music. I'm glad they didn't end the event with ping because that would have been ending with a ping instead of a bang.

Now some kind of negative: not sure what to think about the new Ipod nano. Sure it's cool being touch and all, but they removed the video. I always thought that was a nice touch.

The complete indifferent: Apple TV. The price is cool. I guess if i didn't have digital cable I would be more excited. It's still not something I want. At least not yet.

The good: IPOD touch. Now we are talking. A great game machine. A nice camera and HD recorder. A beautiful screen. Finally a mic. Lots of memory... Finally a front facing camera. Now they need to make a mac version of facetime. Of course I am still not sure what facetime offers that skype doesn't...

Now if they add all the new Ipod touch goodies to the Ipad-2 we've got a real winner. We've got the product I will replace my macbook with. Yes, yes I will.
