No Selling Out Here

I have the greatest host in the world of hosting. My host doesn’t tell me not to host content. She doesn’t turn off my site to “save other users,” and she doesn’t ignore posts in her support forum. There’s a reason I call her the hostess with the mostest.

As a bit of [...]

Okay folks, it’s time

While some people are sticking their hands out for money, begging for a few coins, pimping their amazon wishlists, and loading their pages with ads, I’m not doing that.

In fact, I’ve never really asked anything of my readers until now.

On October 17th, 2004, I will be joining thousands of people from the NYC Metro Area [...]

Look what I found!

My back was killing me yesterday. Badly.

But I got a lot done at work and the day was surprisingly productive. Then, while digging for a tool in my office, I found it… Sitting in one of my tool bins…

How do you spell relief?

R-I-N-G

Back’s still killing me today, but at least I’m [...]

Optimum Online Filtering Outbound Port 25 (SMTP) To Reduce Spam

You’ve probably noticed that the volume of spam you’ve received has grown dramatically over the last few years. What you probably don’t know is that much of this spam is being sent through machines belonging to broadband customers who have been infiltrated or “hacked”. [...]

First time in almost a year…

For the first time in almost a year, I awoke to something I’m not accustomed to anymore… A painful back.

I used to get them quite regularly, but a new bed mostly licked the problem. Weight loss over the last 7 months has definitely helped.

Unfortunately, now I’m aching. Badly.

I was thinking it might [...]

Welcome to Crazy World

Imagine a drug that’s so bad for you that it may kill you. It may even cause you to go deaf. But it has some positive side effects as a pain killer and it’s perfectly legal. It’s called Oxycontin.

Imagine a drug that could cause blood pressure increases (or decreases depending on your [...]

Ch Ch Changes…

Funny thing this whole “weight loss” thing.

Wife and I went out to dinner last night. That’s not the weight loss part, don’t jump ahead

Anyway, we ate a really good dinner. Appetizer and entree, and we knew we were going to be high on the calorie scale for the day. So [...]

Assholes in the Wild: Yuppius Assholius

Anyone ever wonder what kind of slob leaves their bag from their trendy coffee shop (no, not Starbucks, another trendy coffee shop that’s more momandpoppish) on the subway?

Wonder no longer.

Caught in the wild, I bring you Yuppius Assholius, litterer of the subway.

In picture number one, we see the item in question… A brown paper [...]

Bring it on? Fuck you…

You know, John Kerry spent yesterday defending himself from SBVAT and President Bush spent yesterday saying he’s never questioned John Kerry’s “noble” service.

Isn’t it quaint that with a band of radical islamic fundamentalist nutcases trying to kill us wherever they can, we’re still (STILL) talking about the damned fucking Vietnam war?

Are these two talking heads [...]

Tyler Hamilton, one of my favorite Olympic athletes, won the Gold Medal in the Men’s Individual Time Trial (Cycling) yesterday by a pretty good margin.

Congratulations Tyler!

Dress Rehearsal

Back in June I heard Carolyn Dawn Johnson for the first time ever on Sean Hannity’s show. She was pushing her new album. After hearing her, I went out the next day (the day the album came out) and bought it. After getting totally hooked on it, I went and bought her [...]

Sometimes people open your eyes…

We all hit bad times on the web now and then – – I think the important thing is would not to let it make us absent or silence our voices.

I think Uptown Girl may have woken me up.

You know, when I said I was going to bag IT, I had no idea people would [...]

IT is moving

No more insignificantthoughts.com guys. It’s run its course.

I have a new domain ready to go, and if you would like it, drop me an e-mail. The site isn’t there yet, but it will be soon.

I’m tired of IT… Tired of it all…

This isn’t goodbye, it’s just a move to greener pastures [...]

I couldn’t resist

I know I said no more news and politics, but this story is just so ripe it had to get a mention:

Globes [online] – Magal to participate in tender for European separation fence

Israeli companies will participate in tenders to build hundreds of kilometers of fences along [...]
