Partial Post Feeds

I really hate websites that only offer a part of their post in their feed. I know why they do this. They do this so you have to visit their site in order to read the rest of the story. The more visitors they get, the more money they make. Here's the problem though. …

You Forgot the Sauce

I was talking to my friend Trix today and we were discussing what's on the menu for dinner tonight. She is having Chinese and I'm having BBQ hamburgers. This confused her a great deal. She asked if I meant grill. I asked her to explain the difference. I'm always …

Why Dell Sucks, Part 2

So, Dell finally called me back Friday night. That's three days after they were supposed to call. Three days after they said they would call. Guess what the outcome was? Well, the "tech" told me to do the exact same things he told me to do on Monday. I told him no, …

Dell's Customer Service Sucks

I've been happy with my two computer and one mp3 player (1st gen Dell Jukebox from a long time ago) purchases from Dell. I've never had a problem with any of their products. I've never had to contact their customer service, and I've recommended them to others. That …

Strange things are afoot at the Circle-K

For the past couple weeks my traffic has been down drastically. I can't figure out why. Some days it's down to a third of what it once was. Other people have also mentioned how their traffic seemed to be down. Then I noticed that I didn't seem to be reading as many …

You are a Bad Parent

Yes, I'm talking to you. You are a bad parent. You don't discipline your kids, you let them run around and annoy the crap out of everyone, you tell them not to do something only to allow them to do it. What gives?

I hate going to public places where there are kids …

SOTW- The Honey Brothers

It's been a while since I did a song of the week. This is mostly due to the fact that I've been playing CunninLynguists' Dirty Acres almost non stop since it released in November. It is truly a great album. Anyway, a song from the band The Honey Brothers was going to …

Backing Up With SyncToy

Not long ago I bought a 500 GB usb external hard drive. I wanted to keep backups of all my documents, music, and pictures on it. I partitioned it so I could also back up my MacBook using Time Machine. I've been searching for a program to sync any new documents and …

Happy Birthday POS

For the past four years you, my loyal reader(s), have been getting a piece of shep. You have gotten to read my adventures through college, my thoughts on politics, religion, technology. You've found some funny posts and some that weren't so funny. You've sat through …

Disappointing Macworld

I am by no means an Apple fanboy. I only have one Apple product, and that's my MacBook. I will say that since I've gotten my MacBook, I now think all my future computer purchases will be Macs and not PCs. This has nothing to do with me being a fanboy. I just really …

Moving to the Desktop

There is something I don't quite understand. Maybe someone can explain it to me. A few months ago Google gave IMAP support to Gmail. Everyone was happy to have this sought-after feature enabled finally. In my opinion, it was a few years too late. I never use …

Nader Sheep and Paul Sheep are the Same?

It seems to me, and this is based on various people I know, blogs I read, etc, that the same people who supported Ralph Nader in 2000 are the same people that are supporting Ron Paul this election. The funny thing is, the platforms of both men are not that similar at …

Another Brainwashing in Hollywood?

This is getting sad. More and more people are being brainwashed into the Cult of Scientology. I can handle Tom Cruise going completely nuts. I've never been a Tom Cruise fan. Sure, Vanilla Sky was a great movie, and it's true I can't watch it anymore without …

Stay Away from Network Solutions

Thankfully I've never used Network Solutions. Before I started doing a lot of website work I just had one domain, this one. I registered it with Namezero way back in high school, I think. After becoming more familiar with the internet, I moved it to GoDaddy. I knew, …

KProxy Visitors

Hello my Kproxy visitors. I notice you visit once every few weeks. I'm pretty sure I know who you are. I don't know what to say, other than there's a note waiting for you.

Going on a Safari

More and more I find myself browsing the net using Safari. I used to loathe Safari, and on Windows I still do, but it's starting to grow on me a bit on the MacBook. On several Windows systems I found it to be much slower than Firefox, despite Apple's claims. In fact, …

Top 10 Signs You're a Fundamentalist Christian

10 - You vigorously deny the existence of thousands of gods claimed by other religions, but feel outraged when someone denies the existence of yours.

9 - You feel insulted and "dehumanized" when scientists say that people evolved from other life forms, but you have no …

Do You Have the Time?

After being watch-less for about a year I finally decided to get the battery replaced on my watch. I didn't want to make the trip to the mall. I detest that place. It's full of annoying cell-phone people trying to get me to change my service provider, annoying high …

Obama Wins Iowa

Barack Obama won the Iowa caucus tonight.

With all Democratic precincts reporting, Obama had the support of 38 percent of voters, compared to 30 percent for John Edwards and 29 percent for Hillary Clinton.

"The numbers tell us this was a debate between change and …

Happy New Year!

Just wanted to wish everyone a happy new year. May 2008 be a great year for everyone. I've not made any resolutions this year, yet. We'll see.

New Years Eve was fun. My old college roommate Charlie was in town with his girlfriend Lauren. He had some people over …
