OK, I’m only going to say this once, so don’t worry. This won’t be a big thing. BUT, I watched an “interview” that Chris Matthews had with Pat Buchanan and just couldn’t quite believe I was hearing this right. So, Chris Matthews says in the clip: I am looking around for birthers. And I consider [...]
This is going to be fairly short, but it’s too long and important to be relegated to a status update. Social media has come a long way in the last couple of years, mostly due to the smart phones that have become so popular, even I bought one (and am writing this post with it). [...]
First off, this blog post has been in the works for a while, so some of the “news” could be a little old, but that doesn’t mean that it’s outdated, it’s just taken me a while to write this post is all I’m not one of those people that really trusts most scientists. I mean, [...]
Yep, I finally finished reading all the XKCD comics through to the beginning and found a few more of my favorites. Really, they’re just awesome! Movie Seating Guilty! I’m always worried about this when going to the theater with large groups of people. It’s just never optimal… Paths The only problem with the shortest path [...]
By now I’m sure you’ve seen the news that terrorists have attacked various places in Bombay, India. If not, what rock have YOU been living under? Anyway, I also read from the Times Online that terrorists “seized mobile phones and BlackBerries from their hostages and used them to contact each other and monitor world reaction.” [...]
OK, so maybe it doesn’t quite define me, but I was going through the comics the other night and found a number that represent some of my character traits well (for good or bad), so… here they are: Do make sure you read the alt text (hold your mouse over the images), it’s usually SO [...]
I need your help. Well, when I say “I”, I really mean refugees here in Tucson. THEY need your help. Here’s the short version. I just got back from visiting a few refugee families that have come into Tucson in the last 45 days and there’s a LOT of needs for them, I’ll post more [...]
Tagged help, iraq, refugee, tucsonThat’s something I like to say a lot. That I learn something new every day. The other part is that I tend to forget 4 or 5 things, but that’s another story… However, this past week I think I’ve learned at least 20 new things each day. With this new diabetes thing I get to [...]
But I figure it’s about time for me to write again, especially considering what has been going on with me the last couple weeks and culminated yesterday. For the last couple weeks, my mouth and eyes have been very dry and as time has gone on, it was getting worse. I also was urinating a [...]
Senate Bill 968 (PIPA) and House Bill 3261 (SOPA)
The web is in an uproar over Senate Bill 968 (PIPA) and House Bill 3261 (SOPA), and why shouldn’t they? The language is stern and allows for wide-ranging punishments for infringing websites (see http://americancensorship.org/infographic.html for the slightly sensationalized infographic, or https://www.google.com/landing/takeaction/sopa-pipa/ for a more wordy, but less sensational version).
