GM, Bing, and staying healthy

GM

I realize that GM is "too big" to fail, and that the federal government was forced into becoming a buyer/owner of most of its operations (debt). But really, when is enough, enough. GM made poor business decisions for a very long time. Their business model was built on a foundation of cars that the majority of people do not want to drive. They pumped out SUVs and other automobiles that were inefficient and of substandard quality for so long, something had to give. Do I feel bad for the "Joe" who lost his assembly line job he had for 25 years, absolutely. Hopefully when all is said and done, GM can produce a vehicle that I, and others, are happy to drive.

Bing

Really how many search engine choices do you need? And how many ways can you present a result set from a web search engine query? Bing's front page is pretty...looks almost "Windows" like in the color scheme and lines/shapes. But I am going to stick with Google. Search engines are search engines...and nothing makes Bing stand out.

Staying Healthy

So far, I have managed to stay out of the hospital for this final round of chemotherapy. I hope it stays like this.

Refire

Its time to re-fire this thing up.

Update pending...and its going to be amusing.

Lisa...my boxing, blogging, rock and roll, mom of 3, friend, thanks for the kick in the gut to get this going again.
