Crime Shoppers

It's one thing to provide the authorities with information leading to an arrest for something one has knowledge of. But calling the tip line with specific amounts one needs and informing the officer or other person taking the call as to what the reward money is needed for is beyond pathetic and...

The cackling of anti-quackery

You cannot patent nature. This is why Big Pharma seeks to reverse engineer naturally occuring compounds. It is also why it is difficult to get FDA approval for homeopathic compounds. There's no money in it for the pharmatuaries. However if they could be successful at replacing all seed on the planet... Sign in to see full entry.

The illusion of making ends meet

Making Ends Meet is basically a neurotic shell game whereby the consumer tries to balance positively their income to their expenses and can be likened to trying to cinch a belt of a fixed length around an ever expanding mid-section. You try sucking in your gut and holding your breath and straining... Sign in to see full entry.

RFID Chips and the Tunnel Vision of Business

Business always seems overly eager to adopt new technologies without much apparent examination of what the wider implications are beyond their own compartment of use. Questions need to be asked that aren't being asked by people in business and while they're rushing to be the first to outfit their... Sign in to see full entry.

Lock out

I haven't had a locking cap in over 20 years. I didn't even have one when I lived in Los Angeles. Gas prices in the United States have risen nearly 300% in the past five years...personal incomes not so much. The tighter we're squeezed, the more attractive criminal acts become to people who would... Sign in to see full entry.

Goodbye Stranger

I just finished watching Perfect Stranger, starring Halle Berry, Bruce Willis and Giovanni Ribisi. It was really good until the last scene. They blew the very last scene. If a man informs a woman that he knows that and how she murdered someone and then says to her, "Have sex with me or I'll tell the... Sign in to see full entry.

9-11: Truth Rising Prescreen @ Alamo Drafthouse

I attended the 9-11: Truth Rising pre-screening this afternoon. I met Alex Jones. He and I both ended up in the same parking lot with $20 bills needing change to feed the slotmonster coin box. The public are waking up from this fog of official tripe. There are still quite a few people who cannot... Sign in to see full entry.

On Summer Glau in Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles

If she kills you, you get to stand in the same line to find out if you get to heaven and since the line is really really long (From what I hear Adam and Eve are still standing in it. Occasionally ticket scalpers show up. But eventually they get beat up by angelic security and thrown out.) when... Sign in to see full entry.
