Objective & Subjective, but always Respective of the Collective

Using Mickey Mouse to smuggle guns? Now I’ve seen it all! I’m still surprised they didn’t charge the husband, although they may arrest the wife if his account is true. Update: Switched video with the YouTube version to avoid auto play (sorry about that).

Tomorrow is my TwiBirthday! @MLaine convinced me to sign up 5 years ago and thus @HiddenNook (my first Tweet name) was born. I later changed it to @DarnellClayton and lastly @Darnell (which then Tweet CEO @ev gave to me after a spammer was causing mayhem with the username). A brief twihistory for those interested. :-)

Obama To France: Please don't raise taxes and increase spending

Wow. He’s basically telling France not to implement policies that his own administration has attempted to do (Obama increased spending but didn’t raise taxes…yet). Perhaps he realizes that doing so would send France into a recession, dragging Europe into a depression which would affect America and China. (Hat tip: Doug Powers on Michelle Malkin)

Obama needs to stop being lukewarm and come out for or against gay marriage. (via Jake Tapper to Carney: How about you cut the crap and admit that Obama supports gay marriage?)

LaserSaber: A Sith Lord’s best friend. Honestly, do they expect people NOT to use this as a toy? Especially after watching that video? (via The Verge)

I guess I can't use @Vimeo to upload my video. :-(

I really don’t want to use @YouTube (as it sports less features) but I’ll probably have to for large videos as well as videos shot at 60 FPS (yes, there are video iOS apps that shoot in 60 FPS).

Chen to exit China as a "Student"

Finally some closure for this man and (potentially) his family as well. Not thrilled with how the State Department handled this though.

The specs on the Galaxy S III are impressive! Not only does it run Ice Cream Sandwich (aka Android 4.0) but it sports an 8mpx camera. This should help Samsung remain competitive against the iPhone 4S.

Facebook IPO: $90 billion strong

Truth be told I’m surprised it isn’t even higher. I know analysts were underwhelmed with Facebook’s revenue for advertising, but last I checked Facebook is one of the few social networks that is actually profitable.
