wasting tax dollars

Sniper Goes on Hunger Strike


Am I the only one who thinks this is a waste of tax dollars playing a convicted murderer's game? Seems like he's expecting the whole world to revolve around him.He's a freakn baby who needs to be hand fed.
If a convicted muerderer wants to starve himself to death then let him do it. Anyone see the irony? He's going to die in jail anyway and plus if he starves himself to death now then less of my tax money goes to feeding and housing a criminal.

Mexico

I was gone in Mexico for just about 2 weeks. Here's a little summary:

Flew into Guadalajara airport but it took 3 flights (SFO->Vegas->Vallarta->GDL).
I could have taken a direct flight but it would have costed me another $100.
At each stopover I tried connecting up to the wireless network at each of the airports. What can I say .... I'm a freakn nerd. I can't live without my internet.

Once I arrived in GDL, I had my father, brother, and uncle pick me up. My parents had already flown in a couple weeks before I arrived.

On August 4th there was a huge party thrown for me for my bday. All of my cousins and extended family were there. It was acutally pretty overwhelming since I'm not really used to having a large family party. Typically it's just my parents and my two brothers.

3days later and we decided to drive across the state to a little beach right below Puerto Vallarta called Guayabitos. On the way there we passed by a valocano and volcanic rock all along the highway. I basically veged for about a week sitting on the beach sipping on my carona.

At the end of the week we stopped by Puerto Vallarta. We checked out some nice time shares along the beach. Later inthe afternoon we were dropped off at the airport in Puerto Vallarta and flew back to San Francisco. Well that pretty much ends my journey. Next time I return in Mexico I'll be in Cancun!

I'm in an article I didn't know about

I was looking at some of googles new features. I found this feature where you can run search engine searches based on Universities. So I decided to pop my name in it. A bunch of pages came up. There was this article I was in and I had no idea! The article was about undergraduate students promoting undergraduate research at the UC Regents meeting in UCLA. I actually was invited by the Vice Provost to fly down for the day in 1999 with my professor for support. Trippy...........

Blog Spam

I guess a new type of spam has originated. Blog spam. If you get an anonymous comment posted for one of your blogs...it's most likely some kind of annoying spam.
Trevor has some ideas to counter act spam. He proposed an idea of having a little hidden tag on a blog page. This tag would signify to spammers and their bots to not post spam on the site. If so then they are liable to be prosecuted. It's a similar idea with the DO NOT CALL list with telemarketers. If a telemarketer calls the second time after you have asked to take your number of the list, you'd have a right to prosecute. I don't know the fine details but it's the same idea.

My Birthday Bash



Boy was this a great birthday bash....I can't even remember the last half of my night. I can safely say this is going to be my last "college style" party but I hope everyone had a blast. Friends from work, college, and mutual friends were all there. There was a keg, pinata, and plenty of hard liquor. Ever get the feeling when you drink you end up doing stupid little things you regret?
