Complete and Utter Waste of Time... yet, highly amused.

xkcd

This has been my obsession for the past hour... or two. Blah! I’m worthless and I realize this, but it’s so damn addicting. Maybe it’s just that I see so much of myself in these.

Dude, you're right about gas

I'm totally with Frugal Dad on this one.

He writes about how gas prices really aren't that high if you consider it on a personal level. And when you think about the people who do the complaining, like the guys who drive big trucks just so they can go muddin', it's really just ridiculous.

Take a look at his article, and while you're at it, check out his whole blog. I know that I'm adding him to my blog list... Once I get a blog list up.

Underground Revolution

As I was browsing the headlines of the day, I came across this article.

Basically, the Cuban youth are getting around the government restrictions of Internet using thumb drives and illegal satellites. People are exchanging information that the media would never broadcast.

It was interesting because I guess that I hadn't realized how restricted Cubans are by their government. No wonder the US hates Castro so much. No internet cafes, no service for the locals. Oh, but there are places where foreigners are allowed to access the net, provided they display their passport. Intense.

I'm rooting for you guys on your island. Keep fighting the Man. We'll win it soon enough.
