I’m tired of the blood banks playing the guilt card every time they need blood. I’m not bleeding people, why am I being blamed for the lack of blood in their bags? I don’t like the fact that people are dying and I could indirectly improve their chances of survival. But we […]
I’ve always been an avid video game player. I try to stay on or near the cutting edge when it comes to hardware, including PCs and consoles. I am starting to warm to purchasing one of the new consoles that were recently released. When I was younger, the only thing standing in between myself and […]
When my sister gets confronted by a bee or any airborne insect threat, she immediately covers her ears to protect herself from the insect’s attack.
Do you think that’s funny? I sure do. I think that it’s hilarious. Its just as funny as the American mentality and its response to terrorist threats. Just as my sister […]
I’m sure you’ve seen Apple’s recent advertising campaign starring the Mac Guy (Justin Long) and the PC Guy (John Hodgman). This really shouldn’t be a showdown, because the issue has been settled. Earlier last week Apple’s ad department decided to fire the “Mac Guy”. The reason is pretty obvious, but I think […]
This is a wonderful weekend. This weekend the clock in my car becomes correct again. No more disclaimers for my passengers, and no more embarassing explainations about my clock being an hour ahead. Today I can start saying the time with confidence and turn my embarassment towards more obvious matters. However […]
America is great because Americans are stupid. The majority of Americans have a simple job where they perform a simple task and get paid. They don’t ask questions, they don’t challenge the system, and they generally follow rules without questioning their purpose. This sort of cooperation makes for a very productive and […]
Some people just don’t see the big picture. I wouldn’t be concerned if ’some people’ just included your average white consumer with 2.5 kids and a two bedroom house. But thats not the case. I’m talking about the throttle of worldly knowledge; the looking glass between us and the world. I’m […]
This country is really in the toilet when it comes to foreign affairs. I’m speaking particularly of the continuing problems with terrorists as well as Kim Jong-il’s recently satisfied missle fetish. Unfortunately our only hope is a rootin-tootin trigger-happy drunk that has no concept of tact. That leaves it up to me […]
It should have been the story of the year for the NFL, as if they needed one. A community that has been ravaged by storms and political inadequacy for a year finally shines a glint of normalcy through the lens of the NFL. Finally the NFL has a story that deserves a media […]
Enough is enough. Its time to get rid of coined money in this country once and for all.
A few days ago I went to lunch with a small group, and I paid for everyone with my credit card. After lunch, I went ahead and divided the total cost by the number of people […]
Being open-minded and accepting is a great thing. Simply because I don’t like something doesn’t mean no one else is allowed to like that thing. People are free to enjoy whatever makes them happy with very few exceptions. I like to think that I am open minded and accepting of other people’s […]
Its odd how once you’ve done or noticed something, related things appear to pop-up everywhere. Like when you come back from a vacation that you think is exotic and rare, only to find that the Discovery Channel has it at #5 on their Most Exotic Retreats list. I know the standard response is, […]
