Hulu just offered me a choice…one “long-form” Scientology commercial and then the rest of my show commercial free, or more commercial interruptions during the show.
I chose more commercials.
When I was a kid, I was very naive. I bought a copy of Dianetics by L. Ron Hubbard. I never read much of it, but there was a postage-paid card inside to mail in with a survey. I filled it...

I don’t even know what to make of it anymore.
For several weeks in a row, news reporters were claiming that new unemployment claims were dropping to record lows, even though the number reported was 351,000 new applications for unemployment every single week. It held steady at 351,000, or it dropped by 2,000 to 351,000…and yet the 351,000 was a constant.
Today, they are reporting that...

Client: Great! Now can you add Mickey Mouse to the page?
Me: There may be some licensing issues with that. Do you have an affiliation with Disney? Can you supply me with an image you have permission to use?
The client sends me the first Mickey Mouse image he finds on Google Images.
Client: Can you add a football and animate it so he is kicking it?
Me: No, I’m not an...
Debunking myths about Trayvon Martin →
My stepdad is someone who watches Fox News. Tonight, all I heard about Trayvon Martin was how we have to wait for the facts to come out before passing judgement. This would be a reasonable statement if they weren’t making up their own.

Late Truthful Tuesday
When I was a little kid, I had Winnie the Pooh footie-pajamas that I loved wearing to bed. I wore them even after I had outgrown them and had to squeeze myself in.
The zipper went from my neck, diagonally down to my right thigh.
One night, after going to the bathroom in the middle of the night, I experienced what can only politely be referred to as “zipper trouble.”
That was my last...

The education system surprises me sometimes. It preaches knowledge, yet shoves an innumerable amount of propaganda into our faces, purposely giving us no room to breathe or to explore the real definition of the word. Imagination is taught in lecture halls, with guide lines and boundaries to demonstrate that there are no limitations—oh, the irony. Cultivate your minds, but with what,...

I was reading about Al Jazeera having video of the shootings in Toulouse, and someone had left a long ranting comment about how all Muslims were evil and should be wiped out.
I couldn’t let it slide, so I wrote a long ranting reply to his comment. By the time I finished, his comment had already been pulled down by moderators, so suddenly I had nowhere to post this.
Well, that’s not...

Time to call it a rare early night.
Been about 34 hours since I woke up, but I’m finally starting to nod off. Guess I’ll go to bed about 6 hours early today.
Tag me if you need me…I’ll see it tomorrow!
