    Wisconsin Passes Voter-ID Bill

    I am just going to say that this is not a big deal most people have a photo id and if you don't have one you can apply for one fairly easily. I mean if you have the energy to go down to the polls on election day you can go down to city hall or the dmv and get a photo id so you can vote. As for...

    What is the best U.S. State?

    It angers me that The Greatest State in the Union, Wisconsin, is not on that list. Us Wisconsinites take particular pride in our state. Especially after 7 or 8 beers, at that point I will gladly pick a fight with some one just because they aren't from Wisconsin, especially those damn people from...

    Recommend to me your books!

    If you want more of a fun historical read try "Down the Great Unknown" By Edward Dolnick. It is about John Wesley Powell's trip down the grand canyon. Think of it about a bunch of rednecks climibing into large unwieldly boats, and rafting down a river no one has before, all while being lead by a...

    Give the 08 Presidential Canidates Civ4 leadertraits

    There is no possible way to produce enough ethanol to end fossil fuel dependence, it can put a dent into it but is ultimately a dead end. Nuclear energy has much more potential. If you work for minimum wage, you shouldn't expect what some one that works for much more is able to achieve. Although...

    Florida Police Dump Quadriplegic Man From His Wheelchair

    Did anyone else chuckle a bit while watching the video, or am I just a horrible person that laughs at the misfortune of others.

    Favorite Metal Band

    Sonata Arctica got me into metal, and they are still my favorite band to this day, although my collection has grown to include quite a few others. One thing I have noticed is that it is really, really expensive to try and get some of the more unknown european power metal albums shipped to the...

    US city gets tough on underage drinking, uses Facebook to find evidence

    By just looking at a picture alone is it possible to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that the kid is drunk, and that is alcohol in the bottle? The kid could be just acting goofy for fun, or for some reason decided to fill a beer bottle with apple juice. After saying that the prosecution could...

    The insane toughness of Indian competitive exminations

    Well seeing as how I just took the Chemistry, Physics B, and Calculus AB exams less than a month ago I feel I can make a comparison. For one it seems that the AIEEE is a about twice as long as an AP test. I looked around and found the schedule for examination, and it takes 5 hours and 30 minuets...

    Rural Farmland Map

    Last weekend my internet went down and I was forced to use the computer for productive means, so I loaded up the Civ3 map editor, and started monkeying around. After a few hours of intense map making I made this. The Map is pretty basic, I am not sure what you would use it for but here it is...
