This and That...

*On my honor, I will only buy Mac computers forever. End of story.

*I've been following the Heisman hype on http://www.stiffarmtrophy.com with their own projections of the winner. It is very interesting. I really don't care who wins as long as it is not Tebow.

*According to the Dispatch, Gov. Strickland has asked state legislators to fix the budget or schools will suffer:

...A fiscal doomsday analysis released yesterday projected that a failure by lawmakers to close an $851 million budget hole by year's end could trigger the loss of more than $5 billion to education coffers during the next 18 months....

....The Democratic-controlled House approved Strickland's plan to delay this year's 4.2 percent rollback of the state income tax to shore up the budget.

The Republican-controlled Senate, however, has refused to vote on the Democrats' plan or any alternative....

If schools have to close in the state, we can point to Republicans for causing problems. It might be a good idea for Republicans to stop trying to raise their campaign funds and start working on solutions to fix the budget. Once again we see that the Ohio Republicans only care about themselves and their rich contributors.
