It’s the sweet sweet bliss of solitude. It’s not having to listen to somebody else’s bullshit day in and day out. Techno addicts lead lonely life. Capt. Fritter I’ll take solitude anytime.
What thievin’ bunch of criminals. Homeowners association rents house they don’t own. Used to be when you owned something you owned it. Not some half assed pseudo governmental power hungry rule makers. This is one instance where the Florida “stand your ground” law should come into play. It’s shit like this that makes me more [...]
As you might well guess April can’t end soon enough. Over half of what I spent those year went out this month. Taxes, new laptop, some software and other goodies. But the worst is about over and I can more or less settle back into a routine. The hunt for income continues. I’ve pretty much [...]

Apple just announced another record quarter with earnings of $39.2 billion dollars. At $50 a day I could live for 2.146 million years, give or take a decade or two. Analysts were worried that because AT&T only sold 4.3 million iPhones last quarter and it would bring down the Apple shares. Look, if you sell [...]
Monday I had some big plans. Take care of some Internet work in the morning. Stop by and pick up a package I was expecting in the early afternoon, head downtown for sunset. It all fell apart when I noticed the broken pedal on the bike was about at the end of it’s economical usefulness. [...]
