  • League of Legends Kid Justin Carter Behind Bars, Abused and Suicidal

    There’s been some controversy over a 19 year old kid, Justin Carter, who made some exceptionally threatening remarks while playing League of Legends. League of Legends is known to have a rather rowdy and toxic community. It seems that Justin Carter was one of these people who contribute to this typecast, but unlike other players,…

  • NSA Spying Situation

    Something I wanted to talk about that has garnered quite a bit of attention lately is the whole NSA “spying” issue. A lot of people are offended and perhaps even shocked. That said, all things considered, I really have to wonder why people should be surprised and even offended. People talk about their privacy being…

  • Boston Marathon Attack

    Not quite as dramatic as 9-11, today’s attack during the Boston Marathon still was quite unexpected. The only thing significant about 4/15/2013 was that it was tax day. So it’s pretty odd that in light of this, the attack wasn’t done against something like the IRS. Also, unlike 9-11, no one has claimed anything for…

  • Message to Obama on Cutting Spending: Kill the TSA and Homeland Security

    I was reading about the new so-called “plan” Obama just sent in for spending. It includes taxing the rich and cutting social security. Obama desperately is trying to find ways to deal with the deficit the country has been under. Well, if you examine the track record for some of the worst offenders, look no…

  • Gun Control vs Controlling Gun Industries

    The topic of gun control is pretty hot. I’m not a fan of guns except in fiction. That said, the ruling that people are talking about for gun control is nothing short of outrageous. Obviously, gun owners will always be unwilling to relinquish their weapons and it is constitutional to bear arms. People want to…

  • North vs South Korea: War?

    North Korea apparently just announced that it’s in a state of war with South Korea. The cause: the US flying some bombers nearby. Well, that and the fact that the fat kid might be a bit looney and wanting a bit of respect. There’s been a lot of tension recently with North Korea becoming more…

  • Homeless Tent City in NJ

    Saw a sad article on Yahoo which talks about a tent city facing possible eviction from a judge. The problem about the eviction is that it seems the complaints are from local residents who criticize the group for the filth and various regulations. But outside of stench, the truth is that it seems these people…

  • Conspiracies, Illuminati and Bullshit

    I have a fascination with conspiracy theories as it relates to fictional ideas for good storytelling. I have a huge problem though with conspiracy theories when it comes to facts and what the authors of many documentaries want on their agenda. Today, I wanted to share my thoughts on that aspect as it relates to…

  • Prop 30 Is A Joke

    Okay, so they’re going to raise sales taxes in California because supposedly people said, “Tax us so our kids can have better education!” I wonder what most people think of when they put this theoretical money back into education? Do they think that suddenly teachers salaries will go up and thus improve kids’ education? Do…

  • America Must Be Rebuilt From Scratch

    I talked with my mom’s current social worker at the rehabilitation center earlier today. At the end of the conversation, she acquiesced that the whole social security, Medicare, Medi-Cal thing is far too bureaucratic, complex and frustrating. Then you look at all the convoluted things you have to do just to qualify for something that…
