Conundrum

Thursday, October 28th, 2004

I’m looking forward to the elections being over so all of this can go away. I don’t know what to do. On one hand, we have the choice between the lesser of two evils, of which I have my choice decided. But, the truth is that there are more than just two choices. There is [...]

John Stewart on Crossfire

Sunday, October 24th, 2004

By now, many of you have already heard about or seen this, but I want to make sure in case anyone else is left in the dark. John Stewart (of The Daily Show) appeared on Crossfire recently. It has to be one of the most amazing things I have ever seen. Instead of promoting his [...]

Why Voting Doesn’t Work

Saturday, October 23rd, 2004

A few thoughts while I am on the road (read – fudging with timestamps so that I make my daily post commitment). With all of the problems reported with voting – like this one, I am really worried about this upcoming election. I have already ranted about not liking the options, but what happens if [...]

Left or Right?

Wednesday, October 20th, 2004

A year ago, I couldn’t tell you the differences between democrats and republicans, conservatives and liberals, left and right. I have always thought that it was silly that there are such distinctions between these two groups, acting like it was the only option. At that point, I couldn’t tell you where I fell. I had [...]

Love the thought

Tuesday, October 19th, 2004

Have you ever fallen in love with a thought of a person? Your own picturesque, perfect image of someone? No, nevermind – not perfect – i don’t believe I could ever love perfection… But perhaps a memory from your past and a thought that that person would always be who you remembered them as; or [...]

Dear Microsoft Windows

Thursday, September 30th, 2004

Haha… this has got to be one of the best ways to ditch Windows that I have ever seen… An open letter to Windows – as if it were a girlfriend: Dear Microsoft Windows, In retrospect, this letter should be of no surprise to you. For years now I have stood by you despite the [...]

Vote!

Wednesday, September 22nd, 2004

Just a reminder to everyone that you should get out there and register to vote! I could go into all the crap about “no matter who you’re voting for….” but that’s bull – if you know me well enough, you know that I agree that Bush needs to be pushed out of office. As said [...]

I hate corporate IT

Tuesday, July 20th, 2004

WARNING INCOMING RANT That’s right folks, it’s been less than a month since I’ve started working full time in corporate America, and I’m fed up with it already. Is it the stress of a real job? Nope. Is it the long hours? Nope. Is it the fact that real life is setting in? Wrong again. [...]

Tuesday morning blahs…

Tuesday, March 30th, 2004

As I fight off tiredness and attempt to write a paper critiqueing a presentation that did nothing but use buz-words (coca-colinization – yay!), I can’t help but feel “blah”. I’m not sure – i may have a touch of a cold or something, but I just feel run down and tired. Perhaps I just need [...]
