To the Rulers of Myanmar

To The Rules of the Nation of Myanmar,

Who do you think you are!? Where do you get the authority to stall foreign relief to your own people. The people who YOU are supposed to be protecting and governing... not exploiting for you and your party's own advancement. With rumors coming out of the country that you're soldiers are taking fresh supplies from the relief supplies meant for the PEOPLE of Myanmar, taking it for themselves and then distributing deplorable replacement supplies. (I.E. distributing rotten, insect infested rice in exchange for the fresh rice sent to you by Foreign Aid. If I were in any position of power in your country I would be weary of the very serious threat of revolt amongst your oppressed citizens, AND if I were one of those citizens I would be looking to the nearest arms dealer to arm myself with AK-47s and other munitions to launch revolts against, you, the ruling junta... well I've already wasted enough words on your insignificant minds so I'll just leave it at this... GET OFF YOUR FUCKING FAT ASSES, AND DO YOUR DAMN JOB AS A RULER!
Sincerely,
William J. Deister

Laptop

I got a new laptop last Tuesday, I would have wrote about it sooner but I really wanted to get a feel for this thing before I wrote anything on it. I got the HP Pavilion dv6000, here are the main specs on it:

Windows Vista Home Premium (32 Bit) Operating System
Intel Core 2 Duo
3 GB of RAM
300 GB Harddrive
nVidia GeForce 8400

I know what some of you are going to say, "Ew! OMG! Vista OS wtf are you thinking." Well I have to say from what I've seen of it, Vista isn't half bad, when you boot up the laptop the first time during your first two-three hours of use you'll have a slew of updates coming at you. So far I have not encountered any of the "Vista bugs" that people love to talk about or any little glitches or anything that would irritate me. From what I've seen so far, I like it a lot better then Windows XP in terms of its user-friendly atmosphere, it has this side bar where you can add gadgets that suit your needs or your likes, on mine I have a WinAmp CPanel, a Wikipedia search bar, an analog clock, the temperature and hi-lo readings for my town, two news story feeds one for recent websites I've visited and another for any World News from several prominent news sites as well as a Google search bar and a Notepad for quick reminders and stuff. I really like it, also within the first 3 days it starts knowing your likes and dislikes it starts curving the way it works to the way you work making it even more user-friendly. Who knows though, maybe I have not had it long enough to notice any of the major flaws with Vista but from the time I've had with it I love it. BACK TO THE LAPTOP REVIEW! It works great it handles a heavy work load real well for a laptop, the graphics card is only 1 series below the one I have in my $1200 custom built PC and this laptop cost me $920 (without all the added bullshit you end up buying along with it) so I don't think that's too bad. The sound quality is really great for on-board sound, I have not found any major desire to hook up my surround sound speakers to it at all which is good cause I can't tolerate the on-board sound on either of my PCs. I also have a Dell Inspiron from about 5-6 years ago which still works amazing for it's specs + age. The touch pad is nice, I used to think I'd have to hook up my wireless mouse to it right away otherwise I'd kill myself using this touch pad, but it is surprisingly smooth it works really well and doesn't take to long to get used too. The keyboard is just a few inches smaller then a normal sized keyboard but all of the same buttons are on it just some are crammed onto one key, which to some anal retentive people would be a bad quality. The 15.4" monitor is small compared to what I'm usually staring into with my PCs but it's not that hard to get used to. The battery life could be better, the laptop barely being used only for Web browsing on a wireless connection and moderate chatting dropped it down to 5% in about 2 1/2 hours of use but I can't really say it hurt my opinion on the laptop considering I don't use the battery that much. I definitely recommend this laptop to anyone. But for those of you looking for a more numerical way to see how I'd rate this laptop I'll break it down for you:

I will rate the laptop out of 10, in 4 categories + the overall rating
Display: 10/10
Performance: 10/10
Battery life: 8/10
Cost-Benefit: 10/10
Overall: 9.5/10

There you have it, my review verbally and numerically of the HP Pavilion dv6000

P.S. This model is also made with an AMD Turion x64 Processor, make sure you know the differences before you buy.

The Day Off

I love my Wednesdays, because I know on Wednesday I have a day off. I love my days off after having school for 6 1/2 hours and then having to work for another 4 it gets pretty tiring, and working 4 days a week can really tire you out, but not Wednesday. On Wednesday normally all I do is just come home and take a nice nap for about 2-3 hours even if I'm not tired it just feels good to get some sleep. But not today, today I'm gonna check out Eclipse, this IDE that I downloaded awhile ago for Java and never really checked it out, so I figure what day is better then today. For anyone of you reading post what you like to do on your days off, even if you don't work what do you like doing on your weekends if you go to school. But if you do neither FUCK OFF you lucky pricks us "other" people have shit to get done. :P Just Kidding, but seriously you're lucky pricks either way. Lol

Bye Bye UK Internet?... Or Not

Virgin Media in the UK trying to limit peoples access to the internet... that's disgraceful. Watch this and make your opinion known.

College

I can't wait... only a year and a few months to go and I'll be a college boy. To quote Forrest Gump "Can you believe it... I got to go to college too..." I really am excited, my top 3 choices are U of M, SUNY Potsdam, and Gettysburg College, I plan to major in some kind of History and/or Comp. Science. The reason I include the 'and' in that sentence is because I can't decide whether I want to dual major or not. Who knows, I know it would be a lot of work but I don't really care, I love both subjects equally so I think it would be hard to pick one over the other. Maybe if I do dual major maybe I'll major in Comp. Science and Military History or I could just do Info Tech and some History major. Oh well who knows.

Wow - Welcome Back!

Well, it's been awhile... uhh what can I say I've had a lot of fun things happen I started writing for this gaming website - perhaps some of you gaming fanatics have heard of them, the Los Angeles CompLexity. I have 3 articles currently written for them up there here's a link to one of them http://lacomplexity.thecgs.com/The_History_Vault_3DNY. The other two seem to have been lost in transit.

I decided to open up a short story I hadn't looked at in years that I wrote that I believed was my best story and greatest idea to date even with all of my new found experience and skill in writing. I hope to finish it as a full length story so that I can say I accomplished the feat regardless of whether I'm published or not.

Well I guess all I got left to do is quote my good buddy Tigger from the Adventures of Winnie the Pooh, "TTFN - Ta-Ta For Now!"
