At least, according to Ralph Nader. Why people have ever listened to this guy, I have no freaking clue. They should stop encouraging him. Why anyone would vote for him is beyond me. Nader said:
“I haven’t heard him have a strong crackdown on economic exploitation in the ghettos. Payday loans, predatory lending, asbestos, lead. What’s […]
Everyone’s favorite religious wacko, James Dobson, has pretty much invalidated many of his own moral arguments. And it seems he’s too short-sighted to even realize it.
It seems that Mr. Dobson has taken umbrage with some comments made in a speech by Barack Obama. He went on his radio show and did his best to tear […]
So yeah, true to form and what should have been totally obvious to me from the start - I should not have scheduled the MySQL Developer I exam for Friday the goddamn thirteenth. The first omen was when they called me earlier in the week to tell me that my testing center no longer existed, […]

*sigh*
Yeah. I’m back in the doldrums again. I mean that very specifically - I am in a stagnant pool in my life. Again.
First let’s roll back to my last “real” post about the haunting in San Francisco. On a random whim, and after much debate, I said “screw it” and called Kyra, fully expecting her […]
Screw it, let’s just make it Gabriel&Dresden Thursday, since I have nothing else going on right now. This is on my favorite songs they’ve remixed, featuring Amy Lee - I find her voice to be amazing.
Evanescence - Hello (Gabriel&Dresden mix)
Is this all I have to post lately? Sorta. I have things to say about my SF trip still, but I haven’t gotten around to putting, uh, finger to keyboard. Other than that, I have nothing to talk about. Work is work and that’s all I got - my personal life seems to have gone […]
