Book Review: The Undercover Economist

Saturday, July 22nd, 2006

One of the primary reasons that I picked up this book was because it was endorsed by the guy who wrote Freakonomics. That might be one of the best things that this book as going for it.
I’m sorry, but this book was a complete bore. Sure, the author made some great points about […]

Ha ha ha! They Strike Again in Ocean Township!

Saturday, July 22nd, 2006

I love it - I absolutely love it. From the Asbury Park Press:
It’s happened again.
For the second time in a week — and the seventh time this year — police broke up an underage drinking party in town, this one on Westfield Street late Thursday.
How great is it that the people in this town […]

Who Funds This “Research?”

Friday, July 21st, 2006

Sometimes, you don’t even have to go off on a tangent in order to explain how ridiculous this world is becoming:
Study: Moms Prefer Smell of Their Own Baby’s Poop
I’m speechless.

Wrestling Content Update: BB & Wish List

Friday, July 21st, 2006

Some wrestling-related updates for you guys…
The latest BB column is entitled “Extremely Corporate Wrestling.” Here is an excerpt:
I can’t quite put my finger on what it is that makes me strongly dislike this “ECW” brand. It’s a mixture, really. I think the biggest annoyance is the fact that WWE insists on calling this third […]

Anything to Blame America First…

Thursday, July 20th, 2006

So the latest thing on the boob tube is these fanantic talking heads who have somehow spun the continued fighting in Lebanon and Israel as being caused by America. Let’s understand this a little bit better…
Hezbollah kidnaps two Israeli soldiers.
Israel begins military actions to retrieve their soldiers.
We have a low-level, small-scale fight erupting in […]

What is Ocean Township coming to?

Tuesday, July 18th, 2006

Hey teenagers - you can no longer have a gathering at your house in Ocean Township. That’s right, the thrashing of your civil liberties continue in this demented town. Apparently a few kids were having a few drinks and hanging out with each other and they got charged with underage drinking. Ok, […]

Contemplating Condensing Some E-Mails

Monday, July 17th, 2006

Like any of you even care, but I’m contemplating condensing some of my e-mails addresses. As it stands right now, I have addresses @sigmapi.com, @usablewebsolutions.com, @yahoo.com, and @gmail.com. I’m hoping that I can just forward the @sigmapi.com and @usablewebsolutions.com addresses to my Yahoo and GMail accounts.
If any of you have any thoughts on […]

Figuring out individual pages

Sunday, July 16th, 2006

Wordpress has a feature where you can create individual pages on the blog. So I’ve been spending some time figuring that out. You can look on the righthand sidebar and see the “Pages” area. So far I have a generic “About Joe” page and my DVD Collection posted.
I’ll have more on there […]

No Movies This Friday

Saturday, July 15th, 2006

Sorry folks, we didn’t go to the movies last night, thus I have no movie review for you this week. We didn’t go for a variety of reasons ranging from lack of money to lack of anything worth going to pay for.
There’s no WAY any of us was going to pay for the stupid […]

Sick and Tired of this Bullshit in the Middle East

Saturday, July 15th, 2006

I am sick and tired of hearing about these fucking animals in the Middle East. I’m sick and tired of moron investors running up the price of a barrel of fucking oil everytime those idiots in the Middle East go apeshit. Enough is enough already. America’s new message to these thick-headed morons […]

And the Slumlord Strikes Again

Friday, July 14th, 2006

I write this at 8:00am on Friday morning after waking up in a collection of my own sweat. My electricity went off during the night (again) and this time, there seems to be no way to turn it back on. Our refrigerator is melting and apparently has been for the last few hours. […]
