The Undecided Voter Is Getting Tired Of The Snark

Sunday, September 14th, 2008

I am an honest undecided voter in this presidential election. This baffles my friends on both sides of the divide who can’t believe I don’t see what they are seeing so clearly, but honestly I can still see myself voting for either of the major candidates. That said, I am getting tired. I am getting [...]

Targetted Spam

Saturday, September 6th, 2008

Like most people who get email I get spam. Google handles the mail on my main account they do a great job of filtering but every now and then they get too aggressive and I have to bail some piece of mail out of their spam jail so I check the spam jail once [...]

Be careful what you wish for, you just might get it. Not in my back yard!

Return of Today In Historys

As many of you know, I post up whatever interests me or whatever I think might be of interest to my friends. This is how I blog and always has been. However, I have drastically reduced my reading of news feeds as I noticed they were distracting me from my job hunting and this has [...]

If it is Wednesday it must be Emo Music video day.

Wednesday, July 9th, 2008

Yes, I am aware that neither of these is actually ‘emo‘ Mr. Internetknowitall. These are two great depressing songs that I am in love with today. Both are beautiful and haunting and great to listen to when you think life has you in its bulls eye to dump on. Gah. What a week.

We American’s [...]

I am doing some work on the design of this website so if you see anything broken or miss something let me know. I will be reworking the site’s theme, adding support for Gravatars and generally poking about for the next couple of days.

To Those Who Come Here Searching For

Saturday, March 15th, 2008

To those who come here searching for “the rise & fall of ruby woo” torrents. You can sample most of the music on the album at their website and mySpace page. I understand wanting to listen to an artist before you buy and support that, but if you are just looking to steal their music [...]

Hold The Bastard Accountable

Thursday, March 13th, 2008

Ok, I do have some sympathy for the descendants of Admiral Byng, but not much really. They have put a petition to Parliment to ‘restore his honor’, but not pardon him. They say
It has been a long time … but if we were moved by the families of World War One, which was a long [...]
