bankruptcy, not bailout, is the right answer →
Congress has balked at the Bush administration’s proposed $700 billion bailout of Wall Street. Under this plan, the Treasury would have bought the “troubled assets” of financial institutions in an attempt to avoid economic meltdown.
This bailout was a terrible idea. Here’s why…

tumblr layout
i’m changing around my Tumblr format.
Griddle was alright, but i wanted something with a little more personality, which means sticking my own hand in the HTML/CSS pot.
the current background image is work by cloning over at DA, and this current theme is my Frankenstein work of an AW layout.

one of my tires was slashed. T_T i woke up before 12pm today because of the police officer repeatedly ringing my doorbell to ask me questions about the incident. apparently, along with my car, the…

faster firefox?
i found this link that claims to be able to help you increase your Firefox browser’s speed. curious to see whether altering Firefox’s configurations would really speed things up, i tried out four of the “hacks,” and decided that i was happy w/the results.
although nothing was “ridiculously” sped up, there was a noticeable increase in speed leaving me with...

After high school i started the “NoVA” plan; which means I entered Northern Virginia Community College with hopes...

EA Relaxes Rules on Installing 'Spore' (The... →
Spore will forever be remembered as being one of the biggest flops in PC gaming history. the game that got bombarded with one-star reviews at Amazon.com is not only boring, but Spore’s DRM (digital rights management) restricted and punished EA’s paying customers—until now.
EA has announced that it will be relaxing its three-install policy and constant phone-home authentication...

UPGRADING to XP from Vista
I don’t care what you say, Vista blows fucking balls. You can argue it all you want, but no matter what you say or what data you present—you’re wrong.
With that said, I’ll get to the topic at hand:
I successfully made the “downgrade” from Windows Vista to XP on my HP Pavilion dv2000 series laptop; specifically, the dv2745se. And because I know that there are...

battling viruses
Part I
So apparently recent malware is being created to swiftly attack your anti-virus software. This means that even if you’ve got Avast! or Norton installed, they become dead weight on your computer’s hard drive. Even Spybot and AdAware become unusable, and what’s more surprising is that you can’t even search a solution on your default web browser! That’s right,...

Vatican agrees with evolution
The Catholic Church does not read the Genesis account of creation literally, saying it is an allegory for the way God created the world.
Some other Christians, mostly conservative Protestants in the United States, read Genesis literally and object to evolution being taught in biology class in public high schools. -news link
it’s hilarious in a way. the Roman Catholic Church, responsible...

Watchone of the stupidest things you can do on the internet, or in life for that matter, is reference wikipedia. it’s a good place for citations and what not, but other than that, you’re really just making yourself look stupid.
hell—if you quote wiki, then it’s possible that you could be quoting something i said.
