Last night, I was walking down the street, and as I was approaching Toojays two old couples came walking out of the restaurant. As we got to the street corner, there was a sudden “clang!”, and I turned to see one of the husbands falling backwards to the ground after …
Living on the edge…
One thing that I especially deplore in my existence, is that due to my being in South Florida, travel on I-95 is a necessity. 95 is not like the quaint highways and turnpikes back home, but is rather a ramble of thousands of people who all want to get to …
Words
No purpose, no point. Just was curious about a few words this Christmas night. I’d just watched Equilibrium tonight, as i recently hit upon a dystopian movie watching streak. And knowing the adjective of the movie was dystopia, I wondered what other words also related to it… These are my findings: …
Even more counter-intuitiveness from Microsoft (Outlook 2010)
I recently set my bosses wife up with her own personal domain to send and receive email from. Seemed worthwhile, rather than her continuing to use the email address provided by her ISP. Not only does that tie her into that internet provider, but they only offer POP email retrieval …

Another Saturday came and went, and another piece of opinion wholly based on revisionist history or plain disregard of the facts was hit the newsstands. This time, it was Ari Fleischer, former President Bush’s spokesperson for many a year. To ask …
On Florida, Lake Worth, Etc
I hate Florida. Trully, I do. I didn’t set out to move here, it just worked out that way. Many years ago, I was offered an opportunity to move here for 6 months to work with a friend. It paid very good money, and having amassed a substantial amount of …
And onto bit coins…
From the get go. Or really, not from the get go, but from the moment bitcoins were brought to my attention, some 6 or 7 months ago by a friend, the phenomenon has made no sense to me. The US dollar is doomed because it’s got nothing backing it, they …
