Like Amazon doesn't know what I've been buying.

What's good to have for Weasel Stomping Day?

I knew that I had forgotten something today. So don't be a slacker! Put on your boots and stomp some weasels!

Still sticking with my laptop. It is still more capable and flexible than tablets but the gap is closing fast. Besides. I do weird stuff that tablets aren't doing.

Got to hand it to William Shatner. He's a great sport. Even if the video game is crap, the ad was brilliant.

Jerry Jones and Tony "Mr. Inconsistency" Romo deserve each other. He's a "Cowboy for life" because nobody in their right mind would have him.

Oh great. Now they have my whole library.

The Koreans have fallen into a pattern. They throw a fit, act like brats, blow up something and extort aid. When their neighbors send them a check, the Great Leader disappears in his bunker for a while with some Viagra and under-aged girls and comes back out when the money runs out. The real question is who will throw him some money this time. South Korea and Japan could but they are both very tired of the Great Leader's shit. Obama could but it would damage him politically (weak spend-thrift).. Russia is in no position to. Even the Chinese are distancing themselves from their pet monster. Going nuclear would be suicidal for the NKs. They are popping devices that yield in the low kilotons. We can deliver up to 25 megatons. Even so- the DOD has contingency plans for using TAC nukes (low yield nukes) and precision munitions to barbecue large parts of NKs military, their leadership and most anything dangerous they have.without sending massive waves of fallout to China. NK is on Washington and everyone else s shit list because they already have mass stocks of chemical and bio weapons. What they do with those weapons could invite massive retaliation that could render South Korea an island. It could turn into a really ugly, genocidal war. Most ugly to NK as their 1960s military gets taken apart in detail by modern equipment of the South and their American allies. I don't know. It just might be time for this war. The North can't go on like it is. They are so backward that they don't even know how f*cked they are.

Happy Easter

I was able to resolve this late this afternoon. The boss came clean and admitted that he was cash short until he got paid by the customer. Thankfully- it's all worked out before the lawyer stage.

I loved some of the obscure gags like: The IE key card didn't work. She had to use the Firfox card to get in. Facebook: everybody hates it but its shows you around- ie. you log into everything with it. reddit pulling the blinds on digg- all the cool kids are on reddit now and digg is a fossil trying to reinvent itself. youtube being the dumb pet that everybody loves There was a LOT of very subtle stuff like that embedded in the vid. I'm sure that I messed half of it.

Late in February I was recruited by a contractor to be part of a team to upgrade a number of stores that had been purchased by a national chain. I was offered a nice hourly rate and mileage so I went to work installing network wiring, equipment and point of sale stuff so that the new stores data systems were up to their national standard. I spent about a week working at each of three sites in rural Mississippi. I put in over 100+ hours and several thousand miles on the road. Now the company is all excuses about paying me. We cut the check. It's in the mail. Bullshit, bullshit and of course bullshit. Now what do I do? I've spent a lot on gas and expendables to make the work happen and I'm left hanging for several thousand dollars. My rear end in in a sling. I'm so broke I can't even pay attention... or start another job.

Hydrogen in space (near vacuum) is inert. Either as an ion (H+) its diatomic form H2 there is simply nothing for it to react with for combustion to occur. Yes- we need to do a lot more in space. Space (near vacuum, close to absolute zero in hard radiation) is the most common environment in the universe. Oxygen/Nitrogen rich atmosphere, between 273-300 degrees kelvin with so many average bars of atmospheric pressure is actually so strange in comparison to the rest of the universe that it makes for very poor laboratory condition with which to study the rest of the universe.

I remember reading that: the average density of space is 1 atom per 3 cubic centimeters. That's pretty close to vacuum but it is an average meaning that density will be greater in some places and less in others.. While over short distances, this makes little difference but over many light years the effects add up. One way that we see it is in the effects on the spectra of OB class stars and types of novae. Their spectra are very uniform and are often called a "standard candle" because of their uniformity. However- as their light transits light years of space, the absorption lines of interstellar gas and dust are superimposed on these spectra. It is useful in that you can tell what the gas and dust are- typically hydrogen and carbon respectively. It gives us some idea that there is a lot of matter out there that we can't see. We can only induce that it is there by indirect means.

It has been known for some time that different things can effect the speed of light: most notably gravity and gaseous matter.

A book that I suggest: The Only Grammar Book You'll Ever Need Susan Thurman ISBN: 1-58062-855-9 http://www.amazon.com/Only-Grammar-Book-Youll-Ever/dp/1580628559/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1364184949&sr=8-1&keywords=1580628559

*purrs contentedly*

The intensity of homophobic reaction is proportional to homo-erotic arousal. While our frog is not phased by the sight of a penis, those that become somewhat unhinged are coping with some sort of internal struggle with their own homo-erotic feelings.

that's leaving the solar system. Leaving the galaxy is a much bigger challenge.

Ole Miss beats Wisconsin, 57-46

AWE! He's almost as cute as the guys on your book covers. Almost...
