When I got it, it was Mozilla Firebird 0.6. It was on a disc that came with an issue of Maximum PC, a computer magazine I have been reading for years. It was given great reviews for being faster than MSIE and it had the ability to have tabbed content. I figured I would give it a try. Soon after...

You would think that in all of this time of waiting for it to come out that I would have shelled out the money for a HDTV and a PS3, but I have not. I have loved the Metal Gear series since the first one on the NES. I believe I was in the fourth grade at that time. I may end up waiting awhile...

The first released song from an album is usually the pick of the litter, historically. If the rest of the album is like "Inside the Fire", I may skip out on this one.

I've been a Firefox user since it was Firebird beta 0.6. Even then, it was better than today's MSIE. The only problem I have with Firefox right now it its memory hole; occasionally, over time, my memory usage will shoot up higher than 400,000 K and will not drop unless I completely close the...

Wow! Kids are being taught to vote for something fucked up? That sounds like what is happening in our High Schools and Colleges. I didn't think they would go this young. With all of the bullshit parents fill their children's heads with these days, I am surprised that the child has this sort of...

Many things above irritate the piss out of me. You guys make me feel more than justified in how "cranky" I am.

Do you really care about this movie?

The only way it depends is if that job is particularly dangerous and you are given a monthly incentive pay [ie: Flight pay, parachute/jump pay and a few others], which you must qualify for. Aside from incentive pay, it doesn't matter if you are an electronics technician or a cook - if you are...

We were broke and slept on a futon for the first couple months of our marriage. Then we used a blow-up mattress. Then I had some extra money after a deployment and we bought a king-size bed and box-spring/mattress set. We've been sleeping on that for awhile now. I tried sleeping on that futon...

Transformers - more than meets the eye?

I haven't seen it or read the reviews. My prediction: They forgot their fan base and were trying to appeal to a different crowd. They deviated from the magic formula. They introduced something new to the series that doesn't work. Am I on the right track?

One problem is, you may have to take a loss on the truck. People don't want to buy trucks or SUVs right now, so in order to entice someone, the price may have to come down well below what you want to get for it unless you get lucky.

You are saying that I should go out of my way to be kind to people based upon the fact that they are "different and unique" looking? I have a hard time accepting "regular-looking" people. Put yourself in the shoes of an employer. Unless there is an impressive resume on the table, are you going...

That doesn't make it worth knowing, or accepting.

The days are rapidly changing, and that phrase is becoming null. When I see a "scene kid" walking around, I don't really care how unique and complex they may be on the inside, no matter how much they want to broadcast how complex and unique they are on the outside.

I don't think many will do one of the most amazing things ever, which is in the works right now. How do you kill God? If the LHC project is a success and proves with concrete evidence that the Big Bang could actually have happened, there might be a bit of outcry and criticism from the public...

I went in to the local Chase, and paid $900 on my credit card balance in cash. I thought that this would make it available very quickly, or at least faster than an online funds transfer from one bank to another. I was very wrong. It took 4 days to become available, where an online transfer would...

My brother is 4 1/2 years younger than me, but the generation gap has never been more evident than in a study of us two. At age 18, I enlisted in the Air Force. I delayed the enlistment to help my family move cross-country, from Florida to California. Nine years later, I come home to find my...

Do not worry, because none of your problems are your fault. My best guess is that you already know this, because you have been told this for most of your life. You act that way, and want to know "why", because your parents and teachers allowed you to talk back without repercussion. Your...

I'm somewhat of a quarter-breed, but I feel generations apart from this block of humans. Born in 1979, I fit outside of the block of time for birth into Gen Y - by most definitions. I am very tech savvy, sure, but the new generation of teenagers, and even my brother who is younger than me by 4...
