'The point is, ladies and gentleman, that greed, for lack of a better word, is good. Greed is right, Greed works. Greed clarifies, cuts through, and captures the essence of the evolutionary spirit. Greed, in all of its forms: greed for life, for money, for love, knowledge, has marked the upward surge of mankind.' - Gordon Gekko (Gekko was the main character in Oliver Stone's 1987 film Wall Street) As long as someone has money, they'll spend it, and when they do, we'll have jobs. |

My alarm clock went off at 6 am.
I got up, took my shower, put on my five layers of clothes, and sat down at the computer, to play with some programs. The truck was buried in snow.
I had to dig my way through to the windshield. The roads were icy. I ended up coming into work late. When I got to work at 8:30,
the parking lot was empty, I remember thinking, Maybe my job went bankrupt!!! The good thing about this morning:
I finished a program that lets me take pictures from my camera and put them almost directly to this website. That means, most of the 17,000 pictures I've taken will soon be here. Cool, huh. The program is a Visual Basic.Net program. Also, LvDude is finally a .Net website. I converted it today too. What a day!! |

That leaves Best Buy and Walmart for Electronics. Of course, there is Ultimate Electronics and Frys in Vegas. Remember CompUsa? Remember Chrysler and General Motors? Hmmm.....Things are happening slowly, so slowly that a lot of us don't even notice. |
01/16/2009 07:32:29 jim Awwwe Cool!!! Its -8 Degrees in Pittsburgh | Fri |||||||||||||||||||
What we've got here is another ICE AGE ! Questions pop up into my head like: Will my car battery work? Will my hand stick to metal? What temperature does gas freeze at? Oh, and why is gasoline called gas? I broke down, and bought a game computer. It should be in the mail any day now. Its a Wii. My thinking was, its so cold out there, we're not going anywhere this winter. Staying at home could save our lives. This winter, Wii is saving Us. |

01/05/2009 21:38:00 jim The Mayans and You | Mon |||||||||||||||||||
Doomsday predictions are so cool. The Mayans supposedly predicted a doomsday event will be occuring on 12/21/2012. Catchy, isn't it. It kind of has a ring to it. While this may be true, a lot of people thought dooms day was going to be 01/01/2000. And then again, a lot of people thought Nostradamus predicted the Chinese would start WWIII in the 1980's.We didn't see much happen, but that doesn't mean something terrible isn't going to happen. Of course, some natural event is going to wipe out most life forms on this planet. Of course it is. You've seen dinosaur bones in museums and fossils in your own back yard. Even the rocks in your driveway appear to be melted by something. Ever notice that most animals on this planet have the same organs? We're all either survivors, or as I'd like to think of it, children of the last "Doomsday". Like they say, life for billions of years has always found a way. As a whole, it is smarter than we will ever be. I doubt our brains are capable of handling the "truth". The end-of-the-world as far as you are concerned is much more predictable, and will probably come much sooner. Every 80 years or so, all life on our planet is recycled. If only we could remember where we came from. All fear of death would go completely away, and the "end-of-the-world" would seem more like a spring shower. At least, thats the way I like to think of it. I like to think we have and will go on forever, |
