Sure, he was dropped by his studio, but the man is worth millions, and still has no problem getting work. He brings in money, so he won’t go unemployed. But, this one has got to sting.
A movie is being planned about a German war hero, Claus Schenk Graf von Stauffenberg (I totally had to copy/paste […]

I suppose the time has come to show my true colors. I Help You Blog is encouraging bloggers to write great posts using their list of 101 Great Posting Ideas. This falls under the ‘Write a tutorial’ suggestion and possibly the ‘Write a funny post’ suggestion, but that’s really up to the readers. Now, on […]

A group of seemingly large and important companies is banning together to create the next YouTube Killer, or at least a competitor. TechCrunch has some notes from a press discussion posted. Michael makes some comments in the post about confusion and haziness. I’d say that’s a complete understatement.
I’ll try to sum up what I’ve figured […]

The mail guy at work told me yesterday, “may your day be full of sunshine” after I held the door for him. I was caught totally off guard. It’s just not something I’m used to hearing. I hold the door for people everyday, and they always respond with “thank you” or “have a good one”, […]

There’s a major subject lacking from our schools’ curriculum. It’s a very important subject, one of the most important perhaps.

My plan was always to monetize this site, so I want to see how that works out. Right now it’s displaying rug ads, per […]

Ben over at Instigator Blog noticed some funny business on Home Depot’s (Canadian) website. It appears as if a biased party has submitted comments on a couple items that he was investigating (in this case, rugs). The comments were very similar for 3 different rugs, but from different users. I’ll not steal his limelight and […]

I saw 300 last weekend, and I thought it was great. Sure, the dialog was just what you would expect from a cheesy action flick, and it was absurdly gory, but this is what’s to be expected. I was totally into the dramatic lines. The “This is Sparta!” scene rocked my world.
In addition to the […]

I’ve been working on a new project recently. It’s a blog idea that I don’t think I’ve seen done before, but I don’t want to get into it too much yet. I hope to be launching it this week though. It’s much different than what I’m doing now, and I think it will be a […]

Article here. Ran into it over at Get Rich Slowly.
Bun B held up his silver chain to show off the 4-inch-square, diamond-encrusted “B” hanging at the end. It flashed in the spotlight.
“If you’re gonna buy a chain for $30,000, be sure it’s not the only $30,000 you have.”
This is probably where I would have […]
