A while back my sister Kimmy asked me to post about the software I use. And, you may be surprised to hear that people ask me about programs they should have weekly. It is probably just a coincidence that I actually spend way too much time researching

This post has been in the works for over a month. I had decided to install Linux on Selena's Laptop alongside Windows several months ago. Since there is so much buzz about Ubuntu lately, including posts from a blog I visit , I decided to try the live

Check out this video of part of a documentary of high voltage line repairmen. I am not really afraid of heights (only the fall from them), and grew up around electrical stuff, but this is pretty wild. I wonder what the pay scale is for a job like that

These pics are all over the web, but I was reminded of my high school / college days with these. It was my high-school habit to answer everything I didn't know the answer to with 'communism' or simply 'Ron Veenstra Sucks' ( He was my best friend in high
