PipStop

Or late, whichever way you look at it. It's currently 3:18 a.m. on the west coast of Canada and it's actually quite cool outside (I've had the window open) - 12C. It's time to get a few hours of sleep in before my daughter starts jumping all over me and poking her fingers in my eyes.

It's a fairly boring market night for me with cable moving within about a 30 pip channel for the past 20 or so hours.

But I have CNN running on the big screen in the background and am watching American Morning. There's an iReporter out traveling the country asking folks what they think of the whole presidential race.

The reporter was at a baseball game and was interviewing a particular gentleman somewhere in the South. Now this isn't an exact quote, but it's pretty close to what he said, when asked what he thought of Barack Obama's chances.

I'm a good old Southern boy, and I just can't see a black man making a change. The only black man making a change I've ever seen has had a cup in his hands.

Ahhh ... and CNN was nice enough to rewind it once because it's one of those, WHAT THE ... moments. What can you do but just shake your head? Sheesh, well I guess what we CAN do is to absolutely be intolerant of this stupid ignorance.

Later today I'll share some interesting thoughts including the progress of my space on the web.
