I guess I was sort of trying to ignore it, but the fact that I still don't have a job (and my mother's forceful words) encouraged me to go to the unemployment office today.

Go see it now kids. I've been a fan of Michael Moore from his meager beginnings. And if you haven't already, you should check out his web site along with his previous films and books.

You're Cat's Cradle ! by Kurt Vonnegut You believe quite firmly that free will deserted you long ago and far away. As a result, it's hard to take responsibility for anything.

The other night a friend of mine commented that people often misuse the terms "dork" "nerd" and "geek." I called him a dork, and he said that officially that must make him socially inept.

There isn't a lot of good stuff on network TV these days. Especially not good sitcoms. During the 1980's and 90's sitcoms were networks' bread and butter.
