State Sues Automakers????

UPDATE 4-California sues carmakers over global warming�|�Reuters.com

Give me an F**'n break. The auto makers are not responsible for global warming. Take some god damned responsibility for yourselves. Motoring began long ago and no one, I repeat no one even knew of the dangers of the emissions issue. Only over time did we learn more about the potential problems. If there is anyone to blame it is us who continue to purchase these vehicles. In our economy it is the consumer that will dictate what is going to "win". If we can educate ourselves, the stupid, then we can improve our future.

All I can say is STOP FRIVOLOUS LAWSUITS!

Who Can You Trust?

Well, I guess to be in business you need to know how to cheat. What drives this need to cheat? Everyone seems to have this desire to cheat. From gamers to grad students, and even in the work place, cheating is the norm.

Minimum Wage

Not again! Minimum wage is raised again! What the hell are people thinking?! Can someone explain to me how raising the minimum wage helps anyone? Anyways, I wrote an opinion on this very subject a couple of years back. You can find it here. Minimum Wage.

Thanks!

da Vinci Code

I plan on seeing the da Vinci Code, how about you? I cannot believe there are people so insecure about their religion that they must boycott a story. Fiction. That's all it is. Who really gives a crap whether there is any truth in there. Is it a good story? I thought the book was good even though there are those who think it was poorly written. No Pulitzer, but it was a good story. S---T----O----R----Y.

Maybe I will go this weekend after work. It's either that or that over publicized Flight 93 movie. I hope I just offended someone just now.







Truth is, I don't think I am ready to see or be reminded of that dreaded day. I still have pangs of anger at this whole crazy world we live in.

Cell phones that do everything

How many out there really want a phone that does everything: play music, watch TV, record conversations, keeps contacts, is a walkie-talkie, takes pictures, shoots movies...? You get the picture.

Do you want your phone to do everything or do you just want to make calls to your little friends?

My phone for work is an electronic leash. At the same time it gives me the flexibility to not have to be in the office all day. I have a Treo 650. Nice phone. Bulky, though. It syncs with everything and then some. With the right apps I can keep current documents as I go or even VPN into the network (though I have not done that as of yet). Do I really need it? No. Do I want it? No. But then again, on the geek side, the answer is yes. Too bad it isn't a bit easier to carry. Maybe someone will come up with a shoulder holster or something better than a belt clip that makes it look like you have a tumor under your shirt.

What features do you like and dislike on your phones?
