A Ghost Town

Not sure about anyone else but I'm really tired of hearing the same thing over and over from every news source out there.  Perhaps they should really take a look before they make comments and write stories about it.  Yeah, I'm going to go off on the news again.

But I Found It Online

The age of the internet and digital files has changed a lot of things in our lives.  Digital content has given us millions of texts from around the world at our fingertips.  It's also done a lot for seeing photographs of areas of the world that would have never been taken before.  But it's also brought about a lot of issues regarding that content.

Electronic Insurance

I've got one that I should have gone off on before but I think I just didn't have time.  This is one that I was reminded of again tonight when my youngest dropped his tablet and the screen cracked.  He isn't the reason I'm ticked off though, it was an honest accident, and that's why I purchase the insurance for it.  It's really about the insurance.

I Need to Do It Again?

Tonight I have one that I have run into very often.  In fact, I ran into it once again just before my recent vacation.  It's something that needs to change but probably won't though it doesn't need to.  Read on to find out about it as it does effect most everyone, in the world.

I've Got an Appointment

I collected a couple of ideas prior to the vacation.  And since it was an actual vacation, I didn't fire the laptop up at all so I've got them for now.  This one is based on an experience that we had prior to leaving.  I just find it very annoying!

That's Parenting

I have to apologize for missing a week with posting but you need to understand that it is my first vacation in 8 years where we went somewhere.  And it's the first one in 17 or 18 years that we've gone somewhere that is a "vacation spot" so to say.  Very enjoyable for the most part.  And it was very nice to see such big smiles on the faces of my family.  So you may be wondering what am I going to rant about, read on and you'll find out.

How Stupid Do They Think We Are?

Not sure about the advertising in your area but here in New York one of the fast food giants has begun advertising for a new breakfast menu.  That's not what bothers me, more choice is always good for the consumer.  What bothers me is the advertisement itself.

What am I Paying For?

Another suggestion from a friend, yes it's the same one, I don't have all that many but I'm fine with that.  Unlike last night's post though, this isn't exactly what he suggested.  I'd tell you what he suggested but it'd give everything away.  And that's what they will tell you if you were to ask the people that tonight's rant is about, they'd ask if you wanted them to give it away.

When Was That Written?

So for tonight I've got one that was suggested by a good friend.  The funny part about it is that this friend (yes I do consider him to be that) is someone I've never met.  I only know him through interaction on Google+ and instant messaging.  A few weeks ago he posted something regarding the entertainment industry, it bugged me then and still does.  Now I have a few minutes to write about it.

A Problem with Social Media

As social media grows to be much more of a norm for a large portion of how we interact with people, several problems arise.  And these are going to become more and more relevant as social media grows.  And this is platform independent.  It doesn't matter if you are using Facebook, Twitter, or my preference, Google+.  What are these problems?  You'l have to click the link to find out...
