Ugh: Wife Beater Brand Is Purely Disgusting

Wife Beater Brand Woman's Shirt

I'll be the first to admit I find sick things funny. I listen to metal music, which is wrapped with sick imagery, usually for the sake of shock value. I get it. However, Wife Beater brand clothes cross my own arbitrary line of what I can take. Maybe because I'm a victim of childhood abuse [...]

Unleashing the Content Harvesters

The UK Government wants to introduce a law to allow anyone to use your photographs commercially, or in ways you might not like, without asking you first.

I've been thinking a while about the case of Google Books massive scanning project. It reminds me of the Harvester machines from Terminator Salvation. Google was hell-bent on acquiring books and it eventually became a battle between publishers and the Google Harvester. Publishers at least had the funds to hire attorneys and the ramifications of [...]

Cynical Business Dealings

Allianz wants to sponsor an NFL stadium (see Company once tied to Nazis may name stadium) and the decision is causing some controversy. The New York Giants and New York Jets are considering awarding naming rights for their new stadium to a German company that once had ties to the Nazis. Officials from German-based Allianz [...]

As Cynical as It Gets

When things like this happen, it's time for all of us to start to figure out why our culture is so cynical. As stabbing victim LaShanda Calloway lay dying on the floor of a convenience store, five shoppers, including one who stopped to take a picture of her with a cell phone, stepped over the [...]

Where Did American Leadership Go?

I feel like ranting tonight. A small hiatus because of some surgery had me convalescing and watching TV news more than I normally do. Like a slap across my laproscopic incisions, I noticed the absolute absurdity of today's America. I'm horrified at reality and I still don't want to believe what's going on. The complete [...]

And the Political Pandering Continues

You can swap out the players, but Democrat presidential candidates continue to condescend to black voters in black churches. It's as if they believe if they try hard enough, they can channel Martin Luther King, Jr. However, they are actually channeling John Kerry and his sick Jim Crow rhetoric. La Shawn Barber has the scoop [...]

The Victim Bandwagon Rides Again

La Shawn Barber writes today about a side-effect to the Duke rape scandal (see Nifong Hits the Circuit; Unusual Leftist Recommendations). What caught my eye in her article was this: Hopefully, the report will elaborate, but my guess is that black students used the “rape” hoopla to vent frustration about feeling shut out of campus [...]

Squeaky Wheels

This is how terrorism works in the real world. An unusual spam war has erupted on the net, pitting an apparently irate spammer against an Israeli antispam firm that claims it's making junk e-mailers think twice about bugging its customers. Blue Security's controversial method uses reverse spam, if you will, returning massive quantities of opt-out [...]

Electrical Plumbing

So my wife and I were having a conversation today about women in the work place. In a past life, she was in law enforcement and complained regularly about how some women behave at work. One thing that bothers her is women who want to be one of the guys. That is to say they [...]

The Bitter, Angry PR of Katrina

In my last post about Katrina, I criticized the federal government a little for being slow. I've had some time to think and analyze some of the facts. As an ex-National Guardsman, I know how the system works. I was in the Air National Guard for eight years before switching to the Air Force Reserves. [...]
