Repub Vice Prez...

She is married to Todd Palin, an oil production operator on Alaska’s North Slope. They have five children, including a son who enlisted in the Army last year.

Little known outside Alaska, Sarah Palin is a lifetime member of the National Rifle Association and takes part in two of the state’s popular pastimes — fishing and hunting, according to her biography on the governor’s Web site.

The last vice presidential nominee from a major party with less than two years’ experience in statewide or federal office was Spiro Agnew 40 years ago. Richard Nixon picked Agnew, who had been elected as Maryland’s governor in 1966 and inaugurated in January 1967, to be his running mate in August 1968. Agnew’s previous experience had been at the county level

so mcgeezer chooses her in case he croaks and then she would be president… even less experience… and from ALASKA… that is very representative of the rest of the United States and foreign relations. Our army will be retrofitted with polar bears and we’ll invade Canada for their oil and pancakes.

Oh' Steve

According to Nocera, the conversation went like this, “This is Steve Jobs,” he began. “You think I’m an arrogant [expletive] who thinks he’s above the law, and I think you’re a slime bucket who gets most of his facts wrong.” After that rather arresting opening, he went on to say that he would give me some details about his recent health problems, but only if I would agree to keep them off the record. I tried to argue him out of it, but he said he wouldn’t talk if I insisted on an on-the-record conversation. So I agreed.”

“Because the conversation was off the record, I cannot disclose what Mr. Jobs told me. Suffice it to say that I didn’t hear anything that contradicted the reporting that John Markoff and I did this week. While his health problems amounted to a good deal more than “a common bug,” they weren’t life-threatening and he doesn’t have a recurrence of cancer.”

“Take into account that great things involve great risks.
Learn the rules so you know how to break the properly.
Don’t let a a little dispute injure a great relationship.
When you realize you’ve made a mistake, take immidate steps to correct it.
Spend some time alone every day.
Open your arms to change, but don’t let go of your values.
Remember that silence is sometimes the best answer.
A loving atmosphere at home is the foundation for your life.
In disagreements with loved ones, deal only with the current situation. Don’t bring up the past.
Share your knowledge.
Be gentle with the earth.
Once a year, go someplace you have never been before.
Approach love and cooking with reckless abandon.”
—Dala Lamai’s instructions for life. - pea (via pushkin)

“We were very lucky — we grew up in a generation were music was an incredibly intimate part of that generation. More intimate than it had been, and maybe more intimate than it is today, because today there’s a lot of other alternatives. We didn’t have video games to play. We didn’t have personal computers. There’s so many other things competing for kids’ time now. But, nonetheless, music is really being reinvented in this digital age, and that is bringing it back into people’s lives. It’s a wonderful thing. And in our own small way, that’s how we’re working to make the world a better place.” —Steve Jobs told Rolling Stone in 2003 (via Inside Steve’s Brain) (via artistspaid)
