Any reason that many perishable foods have a longer shelf life than an HP ink cartridge

I’ve championed HP printers for quite some time.  The last two I’ve owned I’ve not been so impressed with.  The one I still have uses their 02 cartridge.  Not too long ago, I changed the cartridge, it’s still has plenty of ink, but I have to walk across the room to hit the OK button every time I print something because it keeps saying the cartridge has expired.

My printer (C6280) frequently has a paper jam on the first page of a print job if it has been sitting idle for any length of time.

I’ve also noticed (over the last couple printers) that their drivers have become overly bloated and extremely buggy.

I’m done complaining now, but I do hope HP doesn’t expect to see more of their revenue coming from my wallet.

Obama, you did it again.  Now who’s to blame

During an interview with “60 Minutes” you said, “When I came into office, I inherited the biggest deficit in our history.”  True, it was 459 Billion.  Today you just won the election, and managed to pass on to yourself a 1.1 Trillion dollar deficit.

What will you pass on to the next administration?  What will you pass on to our children and grandchildren?

It was inevitable

Doesn’t matter who won.  There was not a decent candidate on the ballot.

Yes, I voted.  I used the write in option.  Due to the election laws in the state I live, my vote for president will not be counted.

I do not consider my vote as wasted, I did not vote for either candidate, instead I voted against all names on the ballot.

Putting it in perspective

It is estimated that there are between 100 and 400 billion stars in our Milky Way galaxy.  That is a truly astronomical number, so large the human mind can’t realistically comprehend it.

So try to wrap your head around this… If we had a dollar for every star in the Milky Way, even going with the high side of that estimate of 400,000,000,000 stars. It would still take over 40 galaxies the size of the Milky Way to pay off the U.S. National debt of approximately 16,231,649,000,000 (at the time of this posting).
