    Random Raves XXIII: Everything went better than expected

    I got a raise! It's a dollar an hour. I work 11 hours a week so its not much and the boss is going to want her money's worth. I prefer it not be whopping anyway. I can only earn so much more this year before I get bumped into a higher tax bracket.

    Will we ever see a Republican president again?

    They don't seem to have anyone on the bench who could step up and be a candidate for someone other than the wealthy and severely religious. Either way we're going to get a corporate shill.

    "Price Tag" Settlers Labeled As "Terrorists" By US State Department

    I'd be tempted to call their bluff. It might be win with the Palestinians in the end when Israel fights against other Jews in their defense.

    Texas High School opens 60 Million Dollar Football Stadium

    I like how sports are in Europe. The football clubs have their own youth academies and the schools stick to education. In America for some reason our schools are used as a feeder system for pro sports even though they are wealthy enough to fund it themselves.

    People aren't rich because they drink and socialise too much

    Bill Gates didn't even work up from the bottom. He went to an exclusive prep school and Harvard. His mom was on the board of the United Way along with a top exec from IBM. Nice to have connections.

    NHL 2012 Playoffs

    My Kings....won? There are no words. They should have signed a poet. Wish they booed Bettman though. I was looking forward to that all playoffs. Vids of last year will have to do, Vancouver did enough for two. Any reports of drone riots?

    Random Rants XXXIV: Severe Cussing and VERY Illegal Pony Fights

    Dear Boss, You can't be a perfectionist and expect me to leave you alone. I can't do things the way you want without asking you first. No wonder my co-worker doesn't care anymore. He's been here way longer.

    How have your views of economics and ideology been changed since 08?

    I was a Libertarian who thought the free market was the answer to everything. Now I trust neither government nor business to do anything but enrich themselves. Everyone is trying to screw the worker, like always.
