What, do I need to comment on this? You people really like watching go around chasing my own literary tail, now dont’cha? Well… just in case this picture doesn’t speak volumes in and of itself (or otherwise in case you still haven’t had that morning coffee which usually kicks off your neurons), I’ll provide you with a little extra something straight from one of America’s most reliable news sources:
WASHINGTON—African-American man Barack Obama, 47, was given the least-desirable job in the entire country Tuesday when he was elected president of the United States of America. In his new high-stress, low-reward position, Obama will be charged with such tasks as completely overhauling the nation’s broken-down economy, repairing the crumbling infrastructure, and generally having to please more than 300 million Americans and cater to their every whim on a daily basis. As part of his duties, the black man will have to spend four to eight years cleaning up the messes other people left behind. The job comes with such intense scrutiny and so certain a guarantee of failure that only one other person even bothered applying for it. Said scholar and activist Mark L. Denton, “It just goes to show you that, in this country, a black man still can’t catch a break.”

As you can see, my pet cats are definitely cute enough to stand a good chance of winning this contest - particularly when they get all bundled up like in the picture up there. Unfortunately, my digital camera is broken and my cell phone is quite low-res, so I don’t think I’ll be able to get a decent picture in time for the contest. Oh well, maybe next time… who knows. In the meanwhile, if you have cool pets and a decent camera, why not consider giving this contest a shot?
What can I say? House MD is currently one of my favorite tv shows out there. I think that characters features a remarkably impressive asinine charm; he’s the kind of fiend we all love to hate. Fortunately, there’s a character in the series which keeps him in balance (sort of), even though he has been somewhat stray during the early 5th Season. Well, for better and for worse it seems like Wilson is back on the show’s character roster, and as a way to celebrate, I figured it would be nice posting this compilation showcasing the best House vs. Wilson moments. Those two might put up quite the act and they’re always messing with each other, but you can tell they’re actually good friends. What’s a friendship without a little bitter-sweet confrontation, anyway?
If you want to protect yourself, your children or your loved ones from the atrocity of watching bare naked people in their computer screen practicing the most unimaginable range of ungodly fleshy riff-raffs, here’s something that will probably keep your decency bloat floating. This software is like a hound dog for pornography, and it’s targeted to seek and destroy!
It’s much better than average internet filters (which have been proved to let slip by around 9% of all porn), and it’s actually capable of detecting pornography from a pen drive or CD-rom someones tries to plug in your computer. If you want to make sure there will be no pluggin’ in whatsoever next to, around, or within your computer (save for the occasional software patch), this is just the thing you’ve been hoping for.
Ah… it kinda makes you feel safer and more decent, now doesn’t it?
Ahh… the lightsaber. That wonderful piece of imaginary technology, which allows people from the Star Wars universe (most notably Jedi or Sith people, but also the ocasional racketeer), to slice and dice inanimate and animate objects alike, much to their heart’s contentment. Is there somebody who was suceeded in watching a movie in the Star Wars cinematographic epic without ever once nurturing the secret (or not so secret) desire to hack away at the surrouding reality with one of these in-lightened science-fictional weapons? I think not.
So just in case you ever wonder (and also because I think it’s a cool picture and I want to immortalize it in my little corner of cyberspace where I at least can easily retrieve it whenever I feel like doing so), here is the amazing selection of lightsabers which got used by the main characters in the Star Wars saga:
Okay, I’m just gonna tell this once, and for a change I’m discussing a serious matter… but first, I want to ask you to watch the following video, end to end:
As you can see, sand castles may be quite pretty to look at, but there’s something quite disturbing about these structures: how easily they can be destroyed. Now, this is not really about sand castles, but all the while I’m using this metaphor to try and imprint something very important in the mind of all aspiring web masters out there:
You should not let your websites become a sand castle metaphor.
This may sound like an obtuse comparison, but hold on with me. Truth of the matter, there are several ways of making this error… some of them are more elusive and hard to avoid, but regardless there’s one single sure-shot way of making your on line empire quite similar with a sand castle. That’s building it on a frail foundation… and the foundation to every website is the web hosting company it stands upon. So, unless you want to build an Internet empire that’s pretty to look at but easy to tear apart, you should get yourself a solid web host. Continue Reading »
Just to make something clear: at the time I’m writing this there is still no word on the result of the Presidential Elections… so everything can happen. But you know what? America is such a huge place, and even though there is massive moronity (as demonstrated in the previous 2 elections), there is also much hope and willingness to make a better tomorrow… after all we’re talking about the global cauldron. If there’s no hope for America, there’s no hope for the world.Fortunately though, I’m very confident there is hope for America, as well as for the world.
I perceive positive change all around, and some things are changing indeed. Let’s take this Obama guy, for example… it has been a few years since I’ve first heard about him, and I always got a distinctive feeling there was something… different - in a good way - about him; and it turns out I’m not the only one to think so. Like I said, at the time I’m writing this there’s still no word on who the next president of the USA is going to be, but in my mind, the answer to that question has been quite clear for a long, long time (even when I once stated otherwise… but that was just to confuse the Republicans). And the answer is:
I dunno how it’s like in your area of residence, but unless you’re living in the South Hemisphere, I guess you must be getting quite the chilly wheather, by now. I dunno what kind of car you’re driving, but unless it’s like one of those wonderful (hopeless) vehicles in the video up there… consider this: auto air conditioning. If I could offer just one advice for the upcoming winter, getting a decent A/C compressor would be it.
You may think this is unnecessary luxury, but trust me: it’s not. Besides, nowadays there are specialized auto air conditioning services offering quite reasonable prices, free shipping, and even repair parts. And if you don’t believe me, what can I say? … Just check for yourself!
Don’t you love it when different things without much apparent connection suddenly strike you as some kind of awkward match? As though it was some kind of universal puzzle fitting in with itself? This morning I caught glimpse of the picture up there while leisurely strolling (do not confuse with “trolling”) the Internet. In case you don’t get it, the newspaper headline says “Woman spotted yesterday reading today’s paper”. Well, to be honest I thought it was a nice picture, but I didn’t spend much time with it. Just until a few minutes ago, while browsing the insanely cool Subnormality from Virus Comix, I found the following cartoon (which by the way reads ” Local man devoured by newspaper box“: Continue Reading »
We’re all creatures of habits, and oftentimes we’re not even aware of such. Trapped in little worlds of our own creation, sometimes we offer resistance to new things which might provide us with outstanding benefits. It’s not uncommon to see people discarding alternate therapies simply because it looks different from what they’re used to seeing. When it comes to techniques which people usually disregard without really trying to understand or experience, Yoga is a shining example… unfortunately so.
In our modern societies, the fear of looking ridiculous is so thick it closely resembles paranoia. Sometimes it feels as though people have an instinctive fear of standing out from the crowd which makes them behave like robots. Even though our articulations are capable of an extensive array of motions, and still we usually constrain ourselves during our daily activities… sometimes at the expense of our numbing our well-being and health.
You see, while Yoga may look like a strange activity, it actually provides an outstanding therapeutic value. This is an ancient practice with strives to unite body and mind, through a series of physical postures and exercises, as well as a positive mental attitude. Yoga is not something concrete and static, it’s more like a state of being. There are several kinds of Yoga, each one providing its own subset of movements which will help you find inner comfort while stretching your joints and muscles in ways you never thought it was possible.
People who’ve allowed themselves to get immersed in the wonderful world of Yoga have consistently reported improved vitality and well-being, and you know what? You might yet become one such person, if only you leave your fears of inadequacy behind and just focus on improving your relationship with your own body, while discarding that nagging voice in your mind that continuously seeks for external approval from all the other sheepishly numb individuals. If you’re up for a lifestyle change and nothing seems to work, do yourself a favor and get some proper information about Yoga.
