If you’re going to drive on the road with me drive at a constant speed! This mornings ride in was a mess of trying to keep a constant speed with maniac truckers pulling ahead of me, idiots slamming the brakes on right in front of me, and assholes tailgating me. Just make up your mind!

Dear News agencies of the world, CNN, ABC, Fox News, CBS, NBC, and others (I am using the term “news” very loosly here). Thanks to you I have ceased to give a shit about anything that is happening beyond my front door. I don’t care about what is happening in the middle east, Washington, England,

I’m stuck in Windows again. I decided to go to the Netscape radio site, where I was the last time I was here. They had a nice little javascript player that loaded up RealPlayer and had a decent little interface to listen to internet radio stations. No better than the alternatives, but it worked, didn’t

Oh just get it over already, I’m sick and friggin’ tired of all the chest thumping, posturing, and complete and total bullshit that is being thrown around about war. I’m not for war, war is always a bad thing, but the crap that’s going on just makes me hope they start so they can get

“He may destroy the missles as part of his campaign of deception” — Someone at the whitehouse on Saddam destroying his missles What drugs are these people on? Correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t Saddam doing exactly what was asked, ordered and demanded of him? Without getting into the political BS (which I could
