The new legislation, the “Pay for Performance Act of 2009,” would impose government controls on the pay of all employees — not just top executives — of companies that have received a capital investment from the U.S. government. It would,
Ok, this is just starting to be funny… Richard Locker is turning into the Star Trek movie series of the Commercial Appeal. First, his bias appears to know no bounds. Not surprising, given the company he works for. But, then, he tries to hide that bias, with only …
Yesterday, I received a monitor for computer that was dead at the time of order and delivery (but now is barely working), and a hard drive enclosure for a drive extracted from a very dead laptop. Today, I picked up 1000 rounds of .223, for an upper I do not …
After some relatively careful thought and consideration (I know, I know, how strange for me, eh?), I can only come to the conclusion that I am Simon Jester:
I can hardly put together a coherent response to this news:
It is my hope that the steps I am announcing today will go a long way towards answering many of the questions people may have about the future of GM and Chrysler. But just in case there are
The below blockquote came from a forum I routinely read, and the sources for this information are alleged to be eployees within the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation, and thus are requesting to remain anonymous (for obvious reasons, given the nature of the below allegations).

IT IS midnight on 22 September 2012 and the skies above Manhattan are filled with a flickering curtain of colourful light. Few
It is gos-se like this that makes me positively disgusted at what portions of America, and American culture, have become:
With the Oakland Police Department mourning the violent deaths of four of its own, a group Wednesday staged a vigil for the man authorities say gunned down the fallen officers.
Well, after all this time, my short-and-sweet review of the Battlestar Galactical finale is this: “That was predictable.” For those who are concerned about spoilers, I would recommend against reading any farther, because I am going to get all manner of spoileriffic. But, suffice to say, this series could have …
Apparently, when I turned off my computer by way of its power button (due to my monitor being unable to display anything, and me not remembering the keystrokes necessary to shut down Vista), my sole, solitary hard drive decided to go and kick the bucket as well. I have most …
Posting, commenting, or doing much of anything else computer-related might be somewhat difficult for the forseeable future, on account of my monitor deciding to go and die on me last night. And while this whole “Internet-on-the-phone” thing is undeniably shiny, it is far from a long-term solution.…
I am not sure which is more amusing: Option 1 – Our glorious President’s transparent teleprompters have been replaced with a big-screen television us peons can only dream of having in our living rooms (TOTUS would like to make it clear that it was still the brain behind the …
