TECH: Search engines for blogs are fooled by something.

Monday, August 14, 2006

I have this defined in my rss reader:

http://blogsearch.google.com/blogsearch_feeds?hl=en&q=%22manhattan+college%22+-marymount&ie=utf-8&num=100&output=rss

AND it pulls up trash like this:

Any thoughts?

I admire their ingenuity, but it wastes my time.


MONEY: Cell phone offer … wrong and scam

Monday, August 14, 2006

I received a “long time” customer offer from Verizon. It said that I was paying 80 bucks for my two lines and 400 minutes. For the same money, I could have 700 minutes. So I called. In fact, I am paying 60 bucks. So, if I don’t want to pay more, (and who does?) I could have 500 minutes but have to commit for 2 years more. Arghh, waste of fifteen minutes of my life. Just goes to show, there’s no free lunch. And, marketing lies!

(August 10, 2006) — When Matthew L. McDonald tried to rob Stuart D. Miles at gunpoint, Miles responded by shooting and killing McDonald with a .38-caliber revolver.

Now Miles is in trouble for illegally possessing the gun he used in self-defense.

One has to wonder where they find such prosecutors. Didn’t they cover the Second Amendment in Law School? Clearly any law that abridges the right to defend oneself is, prima facie, unconstitutional. The old expression “better judged by 12, than carried by 6” applies here. Intelligent Designer help us if the juries ever run out of common sense.

Here’s a clear example of “concealed carry” benefiting everyone. One less criminal. And, don’t think the other criminals aren’t paying attention! Watch them start to prey on women, whom they perceive will give them less of a fight. Maybe Paxton Quigley can stroll, or troll, their neighborhood.

RKBA is for the control of the two-legged, and four-legged, varmints out there.
