There’s talk of a possible nationwide ban on the use of cell phones and other electronic devices while driving. This would also include phones that sport the “hands-free” feature. I won’t bother boring everyone with detailed information about who is recommending what but I at least wanted to share my thoughts on the subject.
Personal
The working lower / middle class get the crap end of the stick. They make just enough money that they don’t qualify for any form of assistance but hardly enough to live comfortably. Some people combat this by going to school in the hopes that a degree will earn them a better paying job or by working insane amounts of overtime. Is it really beneficial however to work all those extra hours?
The year was 1966 and the Batman television series was running strong. Twice a week we (or in some cases, our parents) were treated to Burt Ward backing up Adam West with both his boyish charms and his quotable, “holyisms.” Someone decided however that corny fight scenes and facepalm worthy dialogue weren’t enough so they made a movie. Did the movie hold “Bat-water?” Hold on to your utility belts…we’re about to go for a ride.
I often joke that I’m pretty “nerdy”. I admit, I do a lot of “nerdy” things. What’s ironic is that most people use the term “nerd” to describe someone they hardly know anything about. It’s people like this that makes me proud to be the person that I am…”nerdy” or not.
What’s cute, furry, and makes a soft purr-like cooing noise when you snuggle with them?
Yes, I’m doing it again. This week I wrote a rather unpopular article about sports and now I am going to bring up religion, a subject some consider so touchy that entire wars were fought over it. I must be a glutton for punishment.
People often ask me why I hate sports or poke fun at the fact that I don’t watch them. I hope you are ready to read because today the gloves come off.
Seventy years ago today was the attack on Pearl Harbor by the Japanese Navy.
I’m probably geeking out more than I should, but some of you may have no idea how important a discovery this is.
I’m going to warn you all right off the bat that I am in a foul mood so expect this particular article to be filled with rants that borderline psychotic. With that disclaimer out of the way, let’s talk about something else that has a disclaimer on it that millions of people ignore.

Working at a job in the city is much different from working at one in the suburbs. In the city you most likely have to pay for parking or pay to get there by bus. Either way, you’re shelling out more for transportation than you would normally working in the suburbs. You also meet all walks of life in the city, ranging from complete lunatics to corporate CEOs that would sooner step on you than be late for his or her tee time.
“Arena” is another episode from Star Trek: The Original Series that I have a love/hate relationship with. It contained a lot more action than the normal Trek episode but on the flip side it didn’t age very well.
Gene Roddenberry had a dream. He invented a universe where humans had eliminated disease, poverty, war, bigotry, and greed by banding together to seek out new life and to boldly go where no man had gone before. Sound familiar? It should. Unfortunately for us, that day is a long ways off. We live in a society where money does most of the talking, where absolute power corrupts absolutely, where the rich get richer and the poor get poorer. It’s important in today’s society to ensure you have good credit in case of emergencies, yet the reality is that some people either don’t care about their credit or don’t know how to repair the damage that they may have done to it. If you think that not all companies know or can find out about your financial history, then you’re not living in the twenty-first century.
Go ahead and roll your eyes, but it’s been a whole week since I’ve written anything “Trek” related and my final frontier itch needed to be scratched. Don’t visualize that, you’ll have nightmares.
Thanksgiving is more than just a day where you take off your belt, gorge on turkey, and then nap on the couch for a few hours. Like all holidays, there is a story behind it.
