ISP Bandwith Hikes are a joke

Another insightful piece by Robert Cringley.

Basically we continue to pay way too much while the costs go down for the ISP's.

Gmail Man



Very funny video and some good points made by Microsoft. I've never been a huge fan of gmail, partly because of the scanning of the context for ad purposes.

One of the dirtiest poker plays ever



What a disgusting angle shoot. He should have been kicked out of the tournament since he had done this multiple times in the same tournament. He pulls this stunt at the final table of the biggest EPT event of the year. I can't believe the US player wasn't more upset. I got the vibe from him he didn't even understand why this was such an angle shoot. You can see the disgust from the player Macerias next to him. Just awful.

Amazing space images from Nasa

It is a shame that our space program will practically be non-existent for the next few years. So many discoveries and inventions have come from space and not mention the pride we should have as a country. The United States has accomplished a lot in it's space program and I believe still will.

Michele Bachman on CO2



God, if you do exist please do the right thing and don't let her get elected. The best part of this speech is when she says "What part of human activity creates carbon dioxide" "Human activity only contributes 3% of the 3% CO2 in the atmosphere"

Man she is truly dumb. First in case she isn't aware, the human activity of breathing causes CO2 to be expunged from our body. Right there is a human activity that contributes. Now of course that is negligble but our increase use of fossil fuels and our destructioon of rain forest and other natural habitats increases the CO2 amounts. It is scientific fact that CO2 concentrations in the atmosphere have increased year by year and decade by decade. This is indisputable. Why people of Bachman's ilk continue to believe otherwise is horrifically dangerous to the world and poor representation for their constituents. But then again, ignorance, naivete and a severe lack of caring runs rampant in this world, especially in America.

Wow, this could be our next president



Would a gay republican actually vote for her?

Pawlenty's ad



How is this advertisement for Pawlenty's campaign do him any favors? How did he win if the state government shut down and a lengthy transit strike took place during his term? What do I know though, maybe Minnesotans like not having a functioning government and no transit service.
