Inflammatory? Yes. Untrue? We will never know. For while Hitler is a figure of the past, Common (Lonnie Rashid Lynn, Jr) is a figure of the present. And Common likes to burn ex-presidents, and sings the praise of cop killers. I guess that is a good role model for children as well. Situational ethics is a very slippery slope. Barack and Michelle just slipped into the slime pit.
It is with great sadness I just learned of the passing of Karen Kenworthy. many of you in the land of geekdom (Windows version) will know who Karen is, and mourn as well her passing as she was not only a source of some great utilities, but also insight into how Windows Worked. From the early days through the later years, she provided us with those "Why did I not think of that!" or 'Why did Microsoft not do that!" utilities that made computing just that much easier. I have many ...
Those damn malware writers are getting better,. I had the unfortunate opportunity to run into the latest. You know the ones - "Your computer is infected!!!" and the infection is the warning. This one defied all tricks that I have learned and even some picked up from here! 1, It infected the "all user" profile, so no booting with a different account. 2. It polluted the registry with tons of launch points and actually replaced windows launch points so simple deletion ...
The word snaps at you like an angry dog. Violated. It is not one of life's better moments. And many have felt it before. Violation can occur in many different ways. From the very violent and lethal, to a more subtle form that occurs routinely - when your "space" is violated. So lumping all of them into one catch-all is not conducive to the feeling you get when you are - Violated. The form I was recently privy to was of the medium verity. Not of som...
A report out by NetSec Consultants Corp. is reporting that Samsung is installing a hidden keylogger on all their new laptops! While no official statement has been forthcoming from the company, a support person at the company has confirmed it. The key logger is invisible to the user and records every keystroke the user(s) makes. It can then send that information to any email it is set up to work with (or to any email that is hijacked by it). Keyloggers in a class room (...
PETA along with others would love for all people to forgo a diet of animals. They think, preach, and advocate that man can live by bread alone. Some even forgo animal by-products (that do not harm the animal, but instead are derived from them such as milk and cheese and chicken eggs). The problem is that man is not an herbivore. Evolution has made some animals carnivores, some animals herbivores and some animals omnivores. Man is the latter. In order to sus...
The Mainstream Media has been lapping up the latest "euphemism" from the Obama Administration on the war on Libya. Due to their never ending actions of covering up the incompetence and malfeasance and outright illegalities of the regime, they have yet to catch on to the joke the regime is playing on them. For in reality, they have been doing it from day one. Doing what? KMA - if looked at from Obama's perspective. Literally, Obama is telling the US to "Kiss My Ass", so...

I have several browsers on my desktop. I have XP at home (bought 3 years ago - BEFORE 7, and did not want Vista) so IE9 is not an option (work is Vista - I was right in my home purchase). So I am using IE8 both at home and work. When I use IE. I have Firefox which is my browser of choice, Opera, Safari, and Chrome. I know many will disagree with me, and that is fine, but my experiences show that no one is winning, just some are losing slower. Opera is fine if all yo...
The AG in Illinois wants to make you a target. If you do not own a gun! In a scary ruling on her part, the AG has told the Illinois State Police to release all the names of legal gun owners. Which by default will also show who does not own a gun (or at least a legal one, and that would be the vast majority of the owners). Her rationale is that it "may" reveal some who should not have a gun due to a complication. But it will also make all who do not own a gun ripe ta...
Obama has proposed a budget and deficit reduction plan that would save $1.1 trillion over 10 years. The senate, run by a democrat has proposed one that would save $00 billion over 10 years. Both are just an example of newspeak as neither saves anything. They spend out the wazoo. To put it in perspective, we are running a $1.5 trillion dollar deficit PER Year. So these grandiose (/sarc) plans are basically cutting less than 10% on a budget that is bloated beyond control...
For those of you who have not had a colonoscopy, do not sweat it. It is fairly routine. However the prep is the bitch! You have to drink a gallon of nasty tasting stuff (the WHOLE gallon) to make sure you are clean inside and out! Even the purpose (and effect) of the nasty stuff is not as bad as the Nasty stuff! But I have had to do it now 3 times. And within the next 6 months, a fourth. My wife of the same age has had to do it ONCE. The reason for th...
The House, by a large margin (not only Republicans) just voted to repeal Obamacare. Reid of the Senate promises to block the repeal, even though his state is one of now 27 states that have sued to block the law (or the worst parts of it). The most interesting aspect of the list is who is not there. First, the states not there are those that are running the biggest Deficits - California, New York, Illinois. Second, with the exception of Maine and Washington, no New England...
