Nothing to say.
At least, that’s what you would think of me for the last six months or so. In reality I’ve had plenty to say, I’ve simply had far too little time to say it. So, while I’ve got some free time right now, I think I’ll pour my mind out in somewhat of a [...]

I can’t believe no one thought of this before!

I’ve never been a fan of U.S. farm subsidies. The idea of paying farmers to grow or not grow certain crops has always seemed directly contradictory to a capitalist economy but now I have even more of a reason to oppose these subsidies.
Here is a really great article from the New York Times that [...]

TheBudgetGraph.com is a very cool site with a visual system of where your taxes go. You can even buy a print version to frame and hang on your wall! Check it out!

At first glance this looks like a bill in support of Stem Cell research but since it was sponsored and fully supported by Republicans you can likely guess that [...]

Hi, my name is John and I’m a Google Addict. I wonder if there’s a support group?
I’m completely addicted to all things Google right now. They’ve just got the slickest tools now. I’ve moved all of my email over to Gmail, even my maine.rr.com and Johnhaven.net mail. You can retrieve POP mail in Gmail! I [...]

I’m often asked where I get all of my info. Or I’ll say, “I just read an article” and they want to know where. Well, I’m not exactly sure but here are the sites I visit daily for brain food: CNN, MSNBC, Foxnews, Digg, FARK, Slashdot, Portland Press Herald, WGAN, Drudge, Wonkette, Wikipedia and BBC [...]
