My fellow Americans! Is it just me or does the whole world seem to be a little distressed over the rising cost of fuel, food, and the general cost of living? Also the declining job market, low wage increases, companies leaving the good old USA in favor of countries where they can pay far ten to twenty people what they have to pay one of us Americans... plus they work harder and longer which increases productivity.
Now this is just my opinion and should not be in any way a view of reality, but companies like Fruit of the Loom that closes the doors of companies like Vanity Fair should have their products removed form every single shelf in every single store in America. Their company should be burned from the face of the Earth. After all their are other companies that make t-shirts and underwear.
The companies like this are one of the main causes for the lack of jobs and increase of debt in our country. If things don't get better soon some of our fellow people having a strong need to live may start taking things into their own hands by robbing, raping, killing, rioting, and all of the bad stuff that falls into those categories even more than they do now.
Then you have these software companies that charge your an arm and a leg for their games and systems and some even charge you monthly fees helping to take even more hard earned money form the mouths of our nations children.
Lets take a look at one of my favorite games World of WarCraft by Blizzard Entertainment! Now this is a company that charges you $19.95 to buy their game and then turn around and charge you $14.95 a month to play the bloody thing. Now here is the kicker... they have over 1,000,000,000 people playing this game but to make it a bit easier we will figure on just one million.
Say one million paid $19.95 for just World of WarCraft not counting The Burning Crusade... which would net Blizzard a few million because the stores have to get their cut. Forget about that let's take that same million and have them pay $14.95 a month and Blizzard makes a whopping $14,950,000.00 a month or a mind blowing $179,400,000.00 a year.
Now if they only charged $5 per month they would still make over five million dollars each and every month and that should be more than enough to run something that they already have setup and running. These greedy bastards have had more than their share and I'm adding to their riches at $179.40 a year for myself and double that because my wife has an account so I pay $358.80 a year!
That's more than my monthly rent, water, and trash all combined. They are not the only software company that is bleeding us dry look at Microsoft, Sony, and Nintendo they all want way too much for their systems and too much for the games. The systems and the games should all cost half of what we are being charged.
Oil companies are dry fucking us until our asses bleed and we scream in pain! Sorry for such graphic use of terms but it is how I feel and thus needed for accurate depictions of how I see this matter! Companies like Shell, BP, Chevron, and others have made billions over the last few months, it's no telling how much these kind and generous people have made form squeezing every last cent from people around the world.
Oh, and if any company wants me to remove their name from this list I can be bought for a couple hundred thousand to a couple million... maybe! Just contact me I'll be happy to accept free products like games, systems, electronics, gas, cars, houses, boats, whatever. ;)

A couple of weeks ago I got a BlackBerry Curve and so far it has been a real good phone aside form not having a built in video camera and voice memo which would be really nice. So far I've had no use for the GPS or the satellite radio.
I use it mainly to check my email, check my stocks, make phone calls, keep notes, play a couple of games, listen to music, read e-books, and stuff like that. I would have more use for the video player if I could make my own videos of me and my wife... well it's the truth, the only other thing that I deem worth making videos of are my kids.
Once the new update to the OS comes out some time later this year it is supposed to have video and voice notations capabilities which will be great for perverts like myself. It could come in handy for web-casts and such, or news events like a wreck or shooting.
I only wish that they had more games available along with, the micro SD card slot was easier to get to like the BlackJack that my wife has... having to remove the battery to add or change SD cards really, really, really sucks.
For the price that AT&T charges for the bloody phone it should come with a two gig micro SD card, case with a belt clip, blue-tooth ear piece, and other little odds and ends at no extra cost. That would have been really nice to have had a packaged deal like that... they even forgot to ask if I have a corporate discount, which I do!
I really like being able to sync my BlackBerry calendar with my Google calendar, so I do not need to check my phone all of the time... plus it is a really easy way to share events and such with my wife and allows her to mark events on my Google calendar so when I sync with my BlackBerry my wife and I can keep up to date with events when I'm at work. Things like doctors appointments, the kids school events, movies we may want to watch, a birthday that I would otherwise forget, and other stuff like that.
The one thing that I want the most out of my little BlackBerry Curve is some software for my computer that would allow me to take a DVD movie and make it about 100 to 200 megabytes, make ring tones, make e-books, compile Java games, and so on. One program to do it all would be very nice, be a couple would do... so if some programmer that feels all gun-ho and should create such useful programs please by all means send me a copy of your finished work, I would be happy to like to any such programs from this little post.
So all in all I would have to give the BlackBerry Curve four out of five fingers put them wherever you like. Sorry... I've got a rather odd sense of humor, you'll have to excuse me! I have to get back to World of WarCraft.

Yeah it Summer and time for fun in the sun, but sometimes we get a we get a little lazy, a little wrapped-up in fun, a little to busy to clean out all the old junk at we collect and just lay down with every intention on moving but somehow months later it's still right where we put it down... but now it's been joined by a few friends.
You know the friends that I'm talking about... dust-bunnies, cob-webs, and other little surprises that magically appear out of thin air. No-one ever knows where this stuff comes from, but never-the-less they get there and they need to be removed.
Cleaning during the Summer in just a part of our everyday life and if you do a little each and every day you will have a less stuff to do in the long-run. I rather make a to-do list of all the tasks that need to be done and set a time frame for each task. I try to leave about an extra half an hour to complete each task just in case I need a little extra time to finish a task before I start a new one.
This is just basic cleaning, not organizing, and decorating. It does not take much time, energy, or money to get the job done. A rag, a trash bag, some glass cleaner and Pledge is all that's really needed. Just take a couple of minutes twice a week to wipe the dust off your things, clean the computer and TV screens, throw away junk mail, trash, and other items that have been left lying around the house.
It may only take you three to ten minutes to get everything done unless your a little behind and then it could take a few hours to a few days to get everything back in order. Remember to do a little here and there, but whatever you do be sure to finish what you started before you move on to the next task.
Cleaning is a part of everyday life, I'm not the cleanest person just ask my wife! When I start cleaning I get the job done fast and done right so I can go about my business. I know what needs to be done, I make a plan of how and in what order I'm going to do it and I get it done. It's a real pain sometimes but I know that if it's not done that roaches and other pests are going to have a field-day.
You can make a kind of game out of your cleaning... like say you have ten tasks to do and you set yourself a time limit to do each task, you can award yourself a set number of points, you can even give yourself bonus points if you finish a task sooner than expected. Another thing is set it up where you and your partner if your married rewards each other with sexual delights for each task that is completed with a finishing act when all the tasks are done.
Well that's all for now, I'll have more short and to the point articles to come later this month, but not much later as this month is almost over. I should have had more articles done by now, what happened... damn World of WarCraft!
