What Do Teachers Make?

A while back I was watching Def Poetry on HBO. It is an excellent program if you've never watched it. There was one poet I really liked. This poet was a teacher. He was very passionate reciting the poem that he had written. The title of his poem is "What Do …

Ann Coulter Needs to Shut the Hell Up

Ann Coulter, the poster girl for the Republican party needs to shut up already. I'm so sick of her lies and rude comments. In case you were not away, several months ago she came under fire for calling former Senator John Edwards a "faggot". She has also said, "If I'm …

Intelligent Design (Creationism) is Not Science

At least some countries are on the right path:

"The Register is reporting that the UK government has stated there is no place in the science curriculum for Intelligent Design and that it can not be taught as science. 'The Government is aware that a number of concerns …

Blogitforward.com

I no longer own Blogitforward.com. I was contacted this week about selling the domain. I was offered a fair price, and I sold. If you're curious as to who bought it, you can do a simple whois search on the domain and it will tell you. Apparently some big plans are …

Ben Harper- Black Rain

Ben Harper is someone I've seen perform on various talk shows for a while but have never listened to one of his albums. This is odd, because I really enjoyed his performances every time I've seen him. I recently picked up his 2006 double disc album Both Sides of the …

The Perfect iPhone Feature

I was in IRC today and came up with the perfect iPhone feature that needs to be implemented within the next 10 days. It is quite brilliant and can save the world of technology from one of their biggest problems..... fanboys.

SHRIKEE does the iPhone have teleport?

Entourage and Flight of the Conchords

HBO is doing it right again. They continue to bring quality programming to the masses. It's no wonder each year HBO has just as many entries in the Emmy Awards as your standard "free TV" network. They have a long history of great programming, The Sopranos, Arli$$, …

A 50-ton bowhead whale caught off the Alaskan coast last month had a weapon fragment embedded in its neck that showed it survived a similar hunt -- more than a century ago.

Rant: An Oral Biography of Buster Casey

I just read Chuck Palahniuk's new book Rant: An Oral Biography of Buster Casey. I am a huge fan of Palahniuk's cynical stories. Reminding me of Vonnegut, Palahniuk spins deep stories about how fucked up the world is and how poor society has become. My favorite book …

Bone Thugs-n-Harmony- So Good, So Right

My song of the week this week is by those guys from Cleveland that many people forgot about. With a member leaving the group (Bizzy Bone) and one member locked up still (Flesh-n-Bone) the group is down to three members (Layzie, Wish, and Krayzie). In my opinion, …

When in Rome, Do as Fanboys Do

So the web is full of fanboy talk after the long circle-jerk orchestrated by Jobs today. One of the biggest things Mac fanboys are heralding is Safari on Windows. Well, here's my thoughts. So what? I downloaded the browser to see what all the hype (which is 90% of …

If You Liked That WordPress Plugin

I really love this plugin. I was using it for a while, then quit because it was displaying the "If you liked that" on pages too. I notified the author and asked if he noticed this and was planning on releasing a version that didn't do this or if he knew how to easily …

Laptop Ram

So, I ordered some new RAM for my laptop last week. I need it because I only have 512 in my laptop now. I only really use my laptop at work (yes, I have to use my own computer and have been doing so for the past 3 years when I would work on and off for two different …

Red House Painters- Have You Forgotten

I have to admit, I know nothing about this band. I have one song by them, and that's this one. The only reason I have it is because it was given to me by a very special friend. I think it's a great song, so now I'm sharing it with you, just as she shared it with me. …

On Ringtones

Listen up! Yes, I'm talking to you, the person sitting near me in a restaurant with the extremely annoying ringtone. Knock that shit off! We don't care that you think you're super cool because Avril Lavigne is telling you one of your lame ass friends wants to get in …
