If all you’ve done is stick a ring through your banana bunch and hung that banana bunch from a closet rod, you are not hacking. You are being clever. Hacking involves actually doing something to the bananas, like inserting a caller-ID unit into each banana to display incoming calls on multiple lines. You know, something […]
Washington D.C. is pretty cool. Not “I’d like to live there” cool, but “I need to go back for more than 2 hours of tourism” cool.

I’m out for the next few days, off to our nation’s capitol to hob-nob with politicians, researchers, and vendors. Well, ok, just vendors and a few fellow customers, but hob-nob I shall! I’d ask for places to go, but I don’t think I’ll have the time. I’ve never been to DC so I would have […]

And, although it’s only correlation, isn’t it somehow fitting that Michigan also has the third-highest rate of hate crimes in the US? Congratulations Michiganders; you really showed […]
Got your attention? Good. You took the time to surf over to this site and, let’s face it, you’re not reading something in the top 1,000,000 pages on the Web so you’re scraping bottom here. You obviously have the time. Go pick a governor, vote on some propositions (PDF), maybe elect a judge or two. […]
