1994? 96 maybe?

Sunday, February 21st, 2010

Why did it have to change into this? Everyone hates when you’re forced to change plans, but drastic shifts in society which work against you, which you try and fight for the next 5 or so years, watching yourself fail over and over again and praying for something to change. They say they are happier, [...]

Nostalgia Gone Wrong

Sunday, February 21st, 2010

Sometimes people listen to music because it reminds them of something. Except (in my case) it has come to a point where I feel miserable, either because I’m not there anymore, or that it came from a more hopeful time. Right now, it’s this game I used to play – the game demands constant play [...]

Two things gone

The UrbanTerror server and the YouTube channel.

Disappointed in an effort that could have been…

Friday, February 19th, 2010

For the past several weeks I was working on something – mentioned here before, an attempt at a calculator RPG which doesn’t use excessive amounts of memory, unlike other programs which would freeze up at the very beginning of the game. After weeks of being up at night listening to my favorite night talk radio [...]

7 Sites To Make Up For Wikipedia’s Shrinking Article Count

Friday, February 19th, 2010

Wikipedia’s mission of becoming an Internet-based user-edited encyclopedia is looking pretty grim, as its article count is shrinking by the bulk.

The children in the show listened to a music group “The Beets”, a hybrid of The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Ramones, and The Clash.

Repeal Freedom of Speech – it’s 230 years old!

Monday, February 1st, 2010

This video is scary. A conspiracy theorist goes around the streets of California trying to get signatures for a “Repeal the 1st Amendment” petition. He markets the 1st Amendment as outdated and tells people signing that a repeal will prevent “hate speech” and will ban criticism of the President. No joke! Watch the video: Video [...]
