Think I should use this space as my personal journal and FOR Rants, Raves, and Rhetoric as my place for reviews and stuff like that. Call it MPD (Multiple Personality Disorder not Schizophrenia which is hearing voices) or call me anal. Just don’t like mixing stuff about me with the rants. Changed some colors. Not as… Continue reading Multiple Personality Disorder

2 Giant Buddhas
It is unfortunate that the Taliban decided to destroy any non-Muslim artifacts in Afghanistan. Some fairly recent photos at Yahoo show that they destroyed 2 giant Buddhas thought to be over 1500 years old. I don’t quite understand the need to attack others that are different. For those of you that do not have it… I recommend… Continue reading 2 Giant Buddhas

Offline Web Sites

Violence in Schools
Interesting quote addressing the recent violence in schools. I’ll tell you what went wrong and it’s not TV, rap music, video games or a lack of prayer in school. What went wrong is that white Americans decided to ignore dysfunction and violence when it only affected other communities, and thereby blinded themselves to the inevitable… Continue reading Violence in Schools
Anti-Virus Software for Home Use
Security Focus article titled Evaluating Anti-Virus Software for Home Use . Looks like a great reference on protecting one’s computer from viruses. Updated the movie list… apparently I am quickly approaching the 400 movie mark. Sad, isn’t it? Need to come up with a very scaleable storage solution. Right now I only have a 100 count… Continue reading Anti-Virus Software for Home Use
Student of Socrates
Something that has tied my thoughts in knots for about a week now… this preoccupation many individuals claim to find my supposedly lofty intelligence intimidating bothers me. Really, I am not that intelligent… I usually score between a 126 to a 144 on IQ tests. School was a knack for me because teachers and testing… Continue reading Student of Socrates
Qualified for DSL
Just checked to see if I qualify for DSL… low and behold, sure enough, I do… yet people who are closer to the central office than I cannot get DSL. Go figure! Lots of stuff to troubleshoot today. Can’t wait to break this message board thing… 🙂
