X-Mas Week: Chistmas town...
Every day is Christmas in Santa Claus, Indiana. Every day is also Suicide Watch day in Santa Claus, Indiana...
From Wikipedia: Santa Claus, Indiana, is a town located in Spencer County in the southern portion of the state, between Interstate 64 and the Ohio River.
Santa Claus, Indiana, was established in 1854. In 1856, when the town was (then known as Santa Fe, pronounced "fay") working to establish a Post Office; the US Postal Service refused their first application as there was already another Santa Fe, Indiana. Several town meetings were held, during which the name Santa Claus was selected.
The town has the world’s only post office to bear the name of Santa Claus. Because of this popular name, the post office receives thousands of letters to Santa from all over the world each year. A group of volunteers known as "Santa’s Elves" ensures each child receives a reply from Santa Claus; this tradition has been around since at least 1914.

Rep. Baron Hill from Indiana
“And you’re not going to tell me how to run my Congressional office. Now, the reason why I don’t allow filming is that usually the films that are done end up on YouTube in a compromising position.”

Finetune.com sucks...
My last letter to them...
Hello, It looks like you have deleted all my playlists. I noticed a couple of weeks back that your service no longer allows anyone to ad songs to their playlists and instead asks them to buy the songs from iTunes. Tell me one things. Why would I come to you if I wanted to buy a song from iTunes. Couldn't I just go to iTunes directly. I could just cut out the middle man. Right now you guys seem as useful as an armed guard at the 99 cent store. Well since you have now deleted all my playlists and I can no longer make new playlists I would like to congratulate you on having what could possibly be the worst revenue model on the internet. I am sure the people at pets.com wish they had your monetization scheme right about now. Also I would like for you to delete me account since I can not find a simple button to do that. Yes I know you were providing a free service but at least figure out a way of making money from it or have some corespondance with your users. Thanks.

100 Essential Skills for Geeks
By Anton Olsen
As Geeks we are expected to have a certain set of skills that the majority of the population does not possess. This list is by no means complete, but I think it is a good sample of the skills required to be a true geek. I won’t pretend to have all the skills listed here. I even had to Google a few of them.
Click here for the list....

Guy Limits
by Kevin on June 23, 2009
Now-a-days there are age limits for just about everything. At 17-years-old I got kicked out of a hotel hot tub because I didn't have a parent guardian present. Our society places ridiculous age limits for things that we "can" do. However, I believe there should be a greater importance on age limits for things people "can no longer'" do. Besides an age limit for women wearing bathing suits (which is arguably 42 years old and/or 180 pounds), I haven't seen any problems with girls. However, everyday I see men do things that they should no longer be doing at certain ages.
With that being said, I have come up with a list of things guys do that should definitely have an age limit. Feel free to message me if you have anything to add to the list.
13-years-old: Guys can no longer wear whitey tighties, have a chili bowl, or wear shorts that do not exceedingly pass the finger tip test (Sorry frat daddies).
14-years-old: Guys are no longer allowed to suck on lollipops. Popsicles and ice cream are appropriate as long as they do not easily shape into phallic symbols.
16-years-old: Two or more guys can no longer share an umbrella. In fact, holding an umbrella is no longer appropriate unless wearing a business suit or holding it for a woman. In all other circumstances a hooded sweatshirt will do the trick just fine.
18-years-old: Male College Students can no longer wear Abercrombie or any brand of graphic tee.
19-years-old: Male Community College Students can no longer wear Abercrombie or any brand of graphic tee. You get an extra year because you are basically still in highschool. Hey now, take it easy big fella, don't get offended. We know, you're just getting the general classes out of the way and your transferring to State next year. It's only a temporary thing, no ones judging.
23-years-old: A man may no longer attempt to be funny by mimicking homosexual actions on another male. Such actions are no longer appropriate and now make straight males uncomfortable.
27-years-old: A man can no longer wear another mans jersey or ask an athlete for his autograph at a sporting event. Have some self-respect, most of these guys are your age or younger by now. It's time to find a new hero.
30-years-old: Men may no longer talk shit on Xbox live. There is no worthy comeback to: "Oh yea,well at least I'm not like 30 years old still playing Call of Duty."
33-years-old: A man can no longer dance to rap music. (If white, you can no longer dance period.)
50-years-old:A man can no longer argue with his son or grandson when they suggest that you aredoing something that is no longer socially acceptable.Chances are they are right, and you are creeping someone out.

George Carlin... One Year Later...
01. Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.
02. Swimming is not a sport. Swimming is a way to keep from drowning. That’s just common sense!
03. I wanna live. I don’t wanna die. That’s the whole meaning of life: Not dying! I figured that shit out by myself in the third grade.
04. I used to be Irish Catholic. Now I’m an American — you know, you grow.
05. You can’t fight City Hall, but you can goddamn sure blow it up.
06. If the Cincinnati Reds were really the first major league baseball team, who did they play?
07. The very existence of flamethrowers proves that sometime, somewhere, someone said to themselves, “You know, I want to set those people over there on fire, but I’m just not close enough to get the job done.”
08. The reason I talk to myself is because I’m the only one whose answers I accept.
09. If it requires a uniform, it’s a worthless endeavor.
10. If you live long enough, sooner or later everybody you know has cancer.
11. You know the good part about all those executions in Texas? Fewer Texans.
12. Reminds me of something my third-grade teacher said to us. She said, “You show me a tropical fruit and I’ll show you a cocksucker from Guatemala.”
13. Ever notice that anyone going slower than you is an idiot, but anyone going faster is a maniac?
14. I don’t like to think of laws as rules you have to follow, but more as suggestions.
15. I would never want to be a member of a group whose symbol was a man nailed to two pieces of wood.
16. Have you noticed that most of the women who are against abortion are women you wouldn’t want to fuck in the first place? There’s such balance in nature.
17. Catholic — which I was until I reached the age of reason.
18. Here’s a bumper sticker I’d like to see: “We are the proud parents of a child who’s self-esteem is sufficient that he doesn’t need us promoting his minor scholastic achievements on the back of our car.”
19. What year did Jesus think it was?
20. The real reason that we can’t have the Ten Commandments in a courthouse: You cannot post “Thou shalt not steal,” “Thou shalt not commit adultery,” and “Thou shalt not lie” in a building full of lawyers, judges, and politicians. It creates a hostile work environment.
21. Bowling is not a sport because you have to rent the shoes.
22. Thou shalt keep thy religion to thyself.
23. Atheism is a non-prophet organization.
24. “Meow” means “woof” in cat.
25. Most people work just hard enough not to get fired and get paid just enough money not to quit.
26. So far, this is the oldest I’ve been.
27. Instead of warning pregnant women not to drink, I think female alcoholics ought to be told not to fuck.
28. What was the best thing before sliced bread?
29. I don’t have pet peeves — I have major psychotic fucking hatreds!
30. I have as much authority as the Pope. I just don’t have as many people who believe it.

Civil Rights Act of 1964
On June 10, 1964, marked the 83rd day of filibustering for the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Strom Thurmond actually switched sides to become a Republican after all of this happened. For those of you who do not know... Filibustering is when someone in the Senate delays or prevents a vote on legislature. Well, the senate needed two-thirds majority to end the filibuster. Seconds before his name was called Senator Clair Engle was pushed into the chamber in a wheelchair. When the clerk tried to call his name he tried to speak but since he was recuperation from two brain operations he could not. So he raised his left arm, as though he was pointing to his eyes. He nodded his head signaling that he was voting 'aye.' He was wheeled out of the chamber minutes later and taken by ambulance back home. The resolution to end the filibuster passed by one vote. Nine days later on June 19, 1964 the Senate passed the final version of the Civil Rights Act, again with Engle’s vote. A month later, "congressman Fireball" -- as Engle had once been called -- died at age 52.

15 Rules of Drunk Dialing
Before you go out getting sloppy drunk and start phoning every friend, family, relative, or random person you can come across - there are a few rules you must know. Etiquette is very important, especially when drunk dialing.
1. Only drunk dial when you’re drunk. Everything else is false advertisement.
2. It’s okay to call someone 27 times in one night. If you don’t remember it, it didn’t happen.
3. If you’re going to drunk dial a family member, say something nice. Ex. “Mom I’m in McDonald’s and they’re playing our song. I love you.”
4. Dirty talk while drunk dialing is always preferred. Who doesn’t want to hear raspy, phone sex voice at 3 in the A.M. asking to get bent over?
5. Voicemails are always better. This way your friends can let their friends have fun at your expense for days, or even weeks to come.
6. Drunk texting is OK, but only if you’re prepared to read what you wrote the next day when you sober up.
7. It is definitely a good idea to call all of your exes and remind them that you were the best lover they ever had, and everything they know they learned from you. This way you can all sleep well at night.
8. You can also call this same ex and let them know, that you know, that they still love you. Then explain that I would still love me too!
9. If you are a frequent dialer, never get mad if someone dials you. Be happy they thought of you in this special time.
10. It’s always a good idea to sing on someone’s answering machine or voicemail. Especially a show tune.
11. Drunk dialing should be fun and light hearted, or dirty and sex crazed… Never angry.
12. Most likely you will never drunk dial your best friends. They’re usually the ones taking your phone away and reminding you that “you have a problem”.
13. If you deleted a number sober, it was probably for a good reason. Do not try to retrieve this number. Nothing good can come from it.
14. Always call someone you know. Finding random numbers in phone books is a bad thing which usually leads to angry dialing.
15. If your cell phone dies, remember everything happens for a reason. Never borrow a friend’s. It’s karma.

tech phrases you should be punched in the face for using
We're told that if you give a million monkeys a million typewriters, they'd create the works of Shakespeare - but what would you end up with if you threw a million typewriters at a monkey?
The internet shows us the answer: perfectly good phrases are replaced with rubbish, grown-ups talk like toddlers, and business bullshit is everywhere.
In an ideal world, anybody using these expressions would be punched in the face by their PC; for now, we'll have to make do with mocking them instead.
1, 2 and 3. Tweeted, Tweetup and Tweeple
What are you, four? The only person in the entire universe who can get away with this is Stephen Fry. Everyone else deserves to be pelted with bricks.

Umbrella Lights The Way
LightDrops looks like an ordinary umbrella but don’t let that fool ya. There’s more than meets the eye here. As water pours over the surface, potential energy from raindrops slamming onto the conductive membrane called PDVF transforms into electrical energy powering embedded LEDs sending your umbrella ablaze with light. The heavier the rain, the brighter the light to help you see your way.
