Working in MIS for most of my computer life, I have always wanted to maintain a balance between the knowledge haves and the knowledge have-nots. One cannot rightfully expect a coworker to be able to program in C++ (one cannot rightfully expect anyone from MIS to explain it either). By the same token, there has […]
Don’t even begin to deny you’re reading this. It’s OK… it’s human nature.
It’s probably all over the media, a fact with which I’d be better acquainted if I checked out local media. As I understand it, someone threw a sex party. There were underage girls and boys in the fourteen-plus range. There were two adult […]
I’ve been falsely accused of racism in the past. Maybe you have too.
The first thing that comes to mind is that I’m not racist: I hate everyone equally. I maintain the same level of contempt for all of humanity. I don’t hold any one group above or below the others. I’m an equal-opportunity basher. I […]
The guy who happens to own the company that employs me asked me to take a look at his laptop. It was not downloading mail and Outlook kept crashing. He sent mail to Microsoft, who told him he was running an old version of Office and he needed to update. Thanks, Microsoft, you’ve been a […]
I’m not entirely sure what it was today but the Bad Driving Brigade was out in full force. They behaved reasonably well on the way in but on the way home all bets were off.
Pennsylvania has a new sport: light jumping. I’m not exactly sure that’s what it’s called but if you’re stopped at a […]
I’ve already mentioned my great love of local news. I don’t think I realized how inane it was until I saw it again after years of getting my news from other places.
My wife was watching local news when I got home from work today. They went to commercial, which featured the female lead […]
Chrysler announces WiFi-enabled cars: “We want to make the radio itself a WiFi port,” a spokesperson said. The service will require a subscription to a wireless phone carrier.
I thought it a good sign that in-car video wasn’t doing that well. Now we can get wi-fi in the car. Yes folks, here’s another thing […]
I got to work with about an hour to get something done before virtualization class. What did I find in my inbox but nothing new and only one small invite. To a meeting.
Jeez was it greaaaaat to see everyone (not really). Oddly enough there were Missing Persons. It’s really heartwarming to drag myself to a […]
Macrida Patterson, age 52, is suing Victoria’s Secret, claiming that because of a design problem, a decorative metallic piece affixed to her thong became airborne and struck her in the eye as she was…
This was very disconcerting, as I tithe to Victoria’s. The irony is that it’s my wife who actually spends the money there. […]
One of my favorite Lockergnome blogs, The Blade, has a very interesting post about AVG antivirus:
Grisoft, the makers of AVG, are now being accused of destroying web analytics with it’s LinkScanner technology. Grisoft had purchased the LinkScanner technology in December of 2007, and had incorporated the technology in its latest AVG Version 8 software. The […]
