| !URL CHANGE! Much like my alter ego, I, too, have decided it is time to infest some other part of the internets. I will still update this with the occasional rant, but my favorites, along with the posting of new ones, have been moved to THIS SITE. The benefit I find in moving some of this content to Blogger is that I can also have co-authors who can rant if they choose so...and I'll be the boss! HAHAHAHA!!! ... Erm... Not goodbye...I've just got a second family now that I spend more time with. ^_^ | | |
| Flight - the dream of any land dweller with an active imagination on a beautiful Saturday afternoon just staring at the blue sky, watching the birds go by, wanting to go where no man has gone before...well, go where Icarus had gone, but not melt your wax wings and plummet to Earth.
Wouldn't it be awesome to have a flying car!?! To be able to fly yourself? To be able to not feel the limitations that gravity has on you? To look like a total badass hovering above the ground as you pass everyone stuck in a traffic jam on the express lane?
Too bad. I'm here to crush your childhood fantasies.
It'd be nice to own one of these luxuries, but let us think realistically for one moment. First, safety. Now, I can guess that at least one or two of my readers have been in a motor vehicle on the road before. Just a hunch. Anyways, we are always told to drive defensively. You know why? It's because you are supposed to assume that everyone around you is a terrible driver. If you make an hour commute every single day, you are almost guaranteed actually spotting one of these people. People are naturally stupid and irresponsible. Give a person a new axis to roam on and you are giving the bad drivers the upperhand to kill. Get a drunk teen in a flying car, the kid is gonna wind up in the second story of someone's home. Nobody's going to be safe.
Secondly, regulation. Pretty much, you are putting the public on free roam. How can you possibly keep order without a systematic approach to keeping the airway in check? It works for airlines because flights can easily schedule when they are coming and going. A metropolitan area, on the other hand, would be a bit trickier. By rush hour, everyone is trying to travel and there's no way you can get from Point A to Point B without a case of Flying Rage.
Lastly, cost. Let's ring up the bill, shall we? A flying car would prolly cost around $100k when first made 'AFFORDABLE' to the general public. After that, you have to buy fuel, which it would use more of to propel it vertically, and at a much faster rate than a standard automobile. These are only DIRECT costs! Don't forget you are still a taxpayer who owes the federal government money to be able to regulate air transportation with new construction and outfitting the police force with both ground and air vehicles.
Yeah, reality sucks. Let's go back to what we were thinking of...

| Once again, I draw your attention over to ANOTHER FOX News story...this time, by a local station in LA:

Now, I don't know about you, but I'm scared for my life! This group of hackers on steroids is going to pillage our internets until there isn't any more internets to pillage! I mean, they are tricking our most intelligent of users into giving out valuable information! Examine this picture of how the 'Internet Hate Machines' are more or less offering candy to little kids if they hop into the back of their Party Van:
Truly the work of evil masterminds. It doesn't stop there! These cyber-terrorists tell people to access their C:/Windows/ folder, completely ignore Windows warning message of the risk of tampering with files, and tell them to delete the System32 folder to get Windows to operate better. WHAT MONSTERS! Making us ruin our lives like that. The internet is SERIOUS BUSINESS! We can't have people having EPIC LULZ at the expense of these poor, well-educated people who send money to Nigerian royalty, waiting for that $1000000 check to come in the mail any day now, or send 25 emails out to people stating that your love will be waiting on your doorstep tomorrow at 4:15PM. It's not like they had it coming, or anything...
The War of the Anonymii is upon us. Members of this faction known as "Anonymous" are believed by many insiders to be people who are not named or identified. In other words, ANYONE could be an anonymous person. The mailman, the guy who gave police a tip to a crime, the person who submitted a poem online, even your mother could be one these unforgiving members of cybersociety. We must be on the lookout for anyone who could be specifically nobody. Anonymous never forgives...and never forgets...
And, if you have become a victim of anonymous, remember the most important rule: buy a dog. That'll surely protect you from cyber-terrorism.

| This is just a quick one. Watch this YouTube Video, but be warned: Fox News wants to rape your childhood.

Now, time to say a few things...
...ahem...
WHAT THE FUCKING FUCK!?!? ARE THE PEOPLE AT FOX NEWS FUCKING RETARDED?! I didn't think that conservatives could get THAT extreme. O'Reilly and them are so fucking psychotic! Can you honestly think for one brief second that giving a child praise unconditionally is a TERRIBLE THING?! You know, I grew up in a stable home, but there's kids out there that needed someone like Mr. Rogers.
I mean, WOW! You have to have the biggest set of balls in the world to make a claim that Mr. Rogers was a bad person for children!
Fucking Fox News...

| We all know of that infamous street within about an hour of our homes that we always mention in jokes about penny-whores and the ways a person could spend a paycheck. For me, Division St. in Grand Rapids is that special place. Unfortunately, I've been down there. I have yet to be there at night when the hookers are out, for I am white, and as a person of Caucasian descent, I have a Suburbia-type paranoia that forbids me from going into run-down urban environments after dusk.
However, I feel for those young ladies. They are seen as lowly citizens and cast aside, left only to be a slave to a pimp and a criminal to the law. What kind of living is it to have a job that is not accepted in our society? A living that isn't an honest living is not living at all, for sure! We got to help these poor women, men, and trannys out!
We must legalize and regulate prostitution!
Yes, America should follow in the footsteps of Nevada. There, prostitution is perfectly legal in counties that don't exceed a population of 500,000. It works, too! With regulations as far as getting checkups for AIDS and other types of VD, very few, if any, cases of the spread of disease has been reported.
Each state would abolish their prostitution laws and renew them with laws that contain prostitution within brothels. If you can make an establishment out of prostitution, you can TAX the clients, the prostitutes, and the employers! The government makes money when they aren't stingy, uppity assholes about everything and just tax the hell out of everything they previously deemed 'wrong'. Worked with tobacco in the 1600s in Virginia; it can work now!
There is one flaw with my plan. In the Netherlands, where it is legal to have a prostitute, you run into the problem of the employers bringing in people from outside countries to work in the brothels because they work for much less, pretty much like a sex slave. Yes, human trafficking could prove to be a problem. With the opening of jobs all over the country thanks to the new job market, employers will want to get the cheapest labor to save a pretty penny. So, they will drive for days, if necessary, to round up the only people who will take a terrible job and do it for significantly less: Mexicans. A tragedy, really...at least to those who don't have a thing for Latino women.
So please, support the Immigration Bill!
