Android Forums
Why does Android Forums have to fail to load just because Phandroid.com is down? What is the connection between the two? I think it’s bad practice for one site to depend on another to be able to load.
Until this is resolved, I call for a boycott against Phandroid and Android Forums for going offline and denying users access!

Everyone is wondering WHY LJ keeps getting attacked, and I’ve collected up information over the separate times that it was under attack. You have to understand that LJ is like the biggest social media/blogging site for Russia. I have heard it likened to facebook,…

Ah… Really?
I have a few favorites. I like them all for different reasons, so I can’t really pick just one.
The Destruction of Isengard was pretty awesome, and no mistake. How many other battles in the War of the Ring were Ents and hobbits vs. Saruman and orcs? And I like the idea that the…

More online surveillance needed, officials in Europe say
Limited Government
When republicans speak of limited government, they mean limited government for the big corporations and the wealthiest ten percent of society. For the rest of us, they want government to grow bigger and bigger until it crushes the life out of us.
Alex Trebek
How long before they are aired are Jeopardy episodes filmed? I just heard about Alex Trebek injuring his Achilles tendon while chasing a thief in their hotel. Does this mean he won’t be on the show tonight, or that he’ll be on crutches?
Dear PayPal
It’s like this. If you’re going to get political by blocking people from donating to a popular site like Wikileaks, you can expect Anonymous and Lulzsec to come after you. If you piss off the general public, they will hand you your ass on a silver platter.

A few months ago I was out at a fancy ice cream place with my eight-year-old daughter. She got chocolate chip, and I asked for a taste of tarragon and pink peppercorn on a lark. It was delicious, and I wound up buying a cup.
I offered her a taste. She declined. I thought she’d really like it,…

I’ve spent the last few days doing a lot of reading over at FreeRangeKids, a blog of which I wholeheartedly approve.
One theme which has cropped up again and again on that blog are rules and laws that discriminate against the childless. No kids? Don’t you dare hang out at a park with a…

Something's technically wrong
With Twitter? No shit, sherlock! You’d have to have your head examined to rely on that POS website!
I have no qualms
About smashing the shit out of any cell phone that loses its data connection for no reason and requires me to reboot it. I had to put up with this shit on that Metro PCS BlackBerry and am now starting to experience it with my Verizon Wirelless Droid 2. I cannot understand how outages can occur on a network as supposedly robust as Verizon’s. It just boggles the mind.
I hit and threw the...
Google+
To hell with Google’s new app. All it does is freeze and crash. What’s so great about this piece of shit?
