I went to a lawyer, paid a few hundred in fees and fines and am done.

The moral of the story?  Fuck KCK.

Holy shit

One of the better comedy sites I have run across. Thanks to DJ Suptic for the links.

California had a rather interesting court ruling, allowing for state sanctioned marriage of homosexual couples. This ruling will no doubt set a large, convenient election year battle for about marriage. The largely republican court did something that seems so right and forward thinking in an election year in California,  they upheld the civil rights of ass pirates and bull dykes to ass fuck and lick to happiness. What goes on behind closed doors is ones own person affairs and not the matter of the churches, employers and the state to decide so long as no murder takes place.

In reality the supposed “defenders of marriage” aren’t defending marriage, they are protecting divorce. Let the people do what they please, I don’t see the reason why we are protecting homosexuals from the “horrible stigma of divorce”.  Great work, assholes.

For 2005….

Somehow with computers racing ahead in raw power almost daily, we still have almost 3 year old data to work with!

When Republicants ran the show in DC, they constantly larded legislation with pet projects for the mouth breathers back home. Now they are the ones forcing Democrats to be more open about Congress’ pork barrel ways.

Now….

This smacks of hypocrisy, big time.  From September 11th, 2001 on, our government has run deficit spending non stop.  Iraq is the biggest money pit we have right now.  Without that, our nation might be able to say protect the borders, fix a failing infrastructure, fund education completely, etc.

Call me crazy, but if the majority can’t do it, the minority can’t either.

And this is why I stick with my car whenever it breaks down.

LEAWOOD, Kan. — Kansas City defensive end Jared Allen will serve two days in jail for driving under the influence of alcohol.

The sentence came Wednesday after the defensive end pleaded no contest in Leawood Municipal Court. The judge then found him guilty of the charge.

Allen’s two-day stint will be at the Johnson County Jail. He also must spend two days in a lockdown treatment program and one day on house arrest. The case stemmed from a September stop in Leawood. It was Allen’s second DUI charge. In January, Allen was found guilty of DUI and sentenced to two days in jail after being stopped in Overland Park. He had been granted diversion to have that DUI charge dismissed, but an Overland Park municipal judge revoked the diversion after Allen was charged a second time.

So the guy gets busted for DUI a 2nd time, and gets a whopping 5 days of trouble.  I imagine if a non celebrity were to do this same act, they would be given months of prison time.  Stupid judge, stupid system….

Not.

Fuck this shit. I think the paper said it best with this. Diamonds:She’ll pretty much have to.

Other than that, I am busy.

I hate teen targeted shows.

The chances of pulling anything out even remotely close to winning would be for us to

1. Cut and run.
2. declare a technical victory and cut and run.
3. Nuke the shit out the place and everything in between Israel and Afghanistan, and then resettle the area with people of Jewish and Christian descent.

American cannot even claim a technical victory at this point, but I am sure our government is going to try and spin it as hard as they can. I think once we can get 3 days without a bomb going off in Baghdad street market, it will be assumed that we can start to bring troops home. I think they will put as many people over in Iraq as needed, to quell the insurgency just long enough for the 2008 election season.

The reason we are in the shape we are in now is the fact that we were too scared to question openly and productively about what we were being told every day. The fact that it can’t be openly discussed without raising tempers is proof that the plan worked perfectly. If their hadn’t been an insurgency that took root in Iraq, and a semi-smooth transfer of power took place in a timely manner the republicans would not be the minority party now. 2004 was closer than many people realize. Of course, all the political scandal didn’t help. And democrats are in the same boat as the republicans on that issue.

Now that we as citizens of America have to force the people we elect to represent us do something weird and foreign to many politicians today which is to actually represent the interests of the people who elected them to office. Will that happen? Maybe as a promise, but not in reality.

Finally, someone put one of those stupid fucking elmo dolls to good use.

I am making this post from my linux desktop. Suse 10.1 with KDE on an old P4 1.5Ghz with 1GB of RDRAM. I have decided that my next “new” computer will run Linux instead of MS. I have tried RH, Gentoo, Suse, slack, free BSD, and a few others that I just don’t remember the name of. Gentoo held great promise until it failed mysteriously in the night…And since I am not a Linux wizard AND I am lazy, I bitched out and went with Suse. If you want to blather to me in e-mail, web forums etc about how great Gentoo is, thats fine. I like the idea of the build and would really like to make it work.

Regardless of that fact I have come to the conclusion that while its a bit more work than Windows to maintain, once you get a few things down, its very easy to make the switch. Especially if your work involves being telnetted into a remote server and your local OS doesn’t mean squat, or a place that run Unix anyway. I say let MS feel the heat a little bit, they haven’t offered a big enough reason to be a paying beta customer, which is what anyone that uses a new MS OS for the first 2 years or first service pack. Even then, you could get a SP2 or 6.
Honestly the only thing people really get out of Vista is DirectX 10, big fucking deal. My still images won’t look any better with a DX10 over my current DX9 card.

If I were to have to choose between paying for a new OS or better equipment, I would rather buy a newer motherboard or something rather than pay for software that really isn’t ready.

When you smoke, use the fucking ashtray in your car and don’t throw the butts out the window.

Sadly, the customer care center for my airline is in Denver, of all places.  So until they get more people in to answer the phones or something, I am pretty much boned.

Yes, in Houston Texas a gay rapist is running around and “robbing” and then raping men.  wow.  Congrats, I guess.
