The way I see it...

I’ve seen many posts (here & on my main stream) regarding posts being made to public communities going to a users public profiles.  I tend to agree,  Since the people you know and circle have different interests than you they not wish to see these posts (and you may not want them to see them either).  People also would like the ability to cross post to their circles and other related communities.

It seems to me this could be accomplished if communities were treated as an aggregate circle of all community members. Would that be a viable solution?

I think I’ll like this…  Kinda like NNTP on steroids!

Save the Coffee

I’ve not been on the Climate Change bandwagon.  Has the global temperatures been rising, yes.  Have they risen in the past, yes.  Global temperatures have been higher, even before the beginning of the industrial revolution.

That doesn’t mean my position can’t be swayed.  I just seen that a new study shows that global warming might wipe out my coffee.  Reading the story changed my mind in a hurry, now I’m all about stopping global warming.

My 3 step approach would reverse this trend quickly:
1)  We must start with permanent worldwide bans on all commercial industry and the use of all fossil fuels.
2)  Since all animals emit CO2 we must also annihilate all animal species, including humans.
3)  These must be a zero tolerance global initiatives, after the last human squashes the last cockroach he must promise to jump off a cliff.

Problem solved, the earth is saved and so is the coffee.  Too bad no one will be around to enjoy it.

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).

Mother Nature does what Occupy Wall Street couldn’t

OWS demonstrators merely got themselves arrested.   #Sandy  just shut down NYSE by flooding the market, literally.  3′ of water reported on the floor of the Stock Exchange.

The headlines will sound somewhat contradictory…
“Trading down while volume is up on NYSE”

Edit
Now they say the earlier reports were wrong, it’s now sunny and 70… Or maybe the water is still rising,.. Come on people get it right.

Thought I’d get acquainted with Windows 8 tonight…

Now the commercial is over and I didn’t make it to the fridge.
