Well, it finally happened today. I was in the library “doing homework” when it was time for Hardware Diagnostics.

I have it from a good source that my blog hasn’t been updated in quite awhile. I didn’t believe it at first, but after running an extensive verification process on the subject, I found that this terrible act of negligence was true. Therefore, in the interest of keeping everyone sane, I have decided to blog [...]

I’ve heard mixed reviews about this site out there that claims they will give you a free iPod if you do a couple things. After doing some research, I have concluded that http://www.freeipods.com is not a hoax. It is, however, a good scheme for that company to make money. Here’s why:

I like to joke around alot that I never get any time to do much of anything. Well, I take it all back because now it’s coming true. I just wrote an email to someone explaining the rest of my week and realized that I really don’t give myself enough “sit-down-and-do-shit” time. Here’s what I [...]

I guess I should double-up on posting today because I didn’t post yesterday.
First things first: I really like this skin, but there’s a major problem with it. As you can see in the post below, it right-aligns the text next to the picture. If it doesn’t happen to you, then it’s probably just my massively-wide [...]
