According to Fox News, there is some fuzzy math going on in West Virginia at the moment…
…and now Massachusetts
I tried one of those fun “How old is your blog?” sites and it came back with this…
My domain is over 6,000 years old, in case you were wondering. Thank you for playing!
Just about every blogger and their brother is posting this video. I was just getting into technology and development when the first internet bubble came and went. It feels the same this time, just new buzzwords and younger faces. Without further ado…

Edit 2: ..and it’s back, minus copyrighted work, plus credits.
Author side note: I was originally going to sit down tonight and write part two of my “distractionless browsing” article. In short, I’ve had little to no success with the systems I outlined in my previous article. They are as different and quirky as the mainstream browsers they intend to co-exist with. Instead I’m going go on a little rant about my job as a web application developer.
So, what do you do for a living?
Great… cue eye roll. Here we go…
We are the species that has mastered tools. Shouldn’t we be proud of ourselves!?
SOUTHWORTH, Wash. — A man trying to loosen a stubborn lug nut blasted the wheel with a 12-gauge shotgun, injuring himself badly in both legs, Kitsap County sheriff’s deputies said.
The 66-year-old man had been repairing a Lincoln Continental for two weeks at his home northwest of Southworth and east of Port Orchard and had gotten all but one of the lug nuts off the right rear wheel before getting frustrated Saturday afternoon, Deputy Scott Wilson said.
“He’s bound and determined to get that lug nut off,” Wilson said.
From about arm’s length the man fired the shotgun at the wheel and was “peppered” in both legs with 00 buckshot and other debris, with some injuries as high on his body as his chin, according to a sheriff’s office report.
“Nobody else was there and he wasn’t intoxicated,” Wilson said.
South Kitsap Fire and Rescue personnel treated the man at the scene before he was taken to Tacoma General Hospital with injuries Wilson described as “severe but not life-threatening.”
He said deputies were unable to get a full statement from the man, relying only on what they could learn while medics treated him at the scene.
“I don’t think he was in any condition to say anything,” Wilson said. “The pain was so severe, and the shock.”
Wouldn’t you have just wanted to have been there to see that? What was he thinking?
