golf in space

I've been working hard to not blog while I'm at work (hence the lack of posts) but here is the second thing of the day I just can't pass up posting.

I'm an Artistic!

Got this from Ben. Dumb test (way too rigid) but fun anyway.

***Your Career Type: Artistic***


You are expressive, original, and independent.
Your talents lie in your artistic abilities: creative writing, drama, crafts, music, or art.

You would make an excellent:

Actor - Art Teacher - Book Editor
Clothes Designer - Comedian - Composer
Dancer - DJ - Graphic Designer
Illustrator - Musician - Sculptor

The worst career options for your are conventional careers, like bank teller or secretary.

Hmmmmm....

It is sad how quick people will jump rudely down your throat and say you are full of crap when they have an OPINION that is different than yours.

So Sue Me

In case you missed it, Apple is getting sued for not putting warning labels on their iPods telling people that you can get hearing damage if you turn up the volume too high.

Companies should be able to counter-sue in cases like this. This guy hasn't even suffered hearing loss yet! He just thinks he will because he listens to his iPod too loud. I guess it was blocking out that little voice of reason.

High Gas Prices Are Good

If this doesn't get people commenting on my blog I don't know what will.

Reasons that high gas prices are good:

#1 If people are paying this much for gas , then they can obviously afford it, and if people can afford it and are buying it, why shouldn't the oil companies be charging more? Hello, economy 101 here. Plus, people making money is a boost to the economy.

#2 Less people on the road. Can you imagine how crowded the freeways would be right now if gas was $1 a gallon?

#3 higher gas prices increase public outcry over lack of alternative energy sources and public transportation, both which need more money invested in them.

I bet we hit $3.50 a gallon or more this summer.

On a different note, this is so true:
