“The Game” by Neil Strauss aka Style outlines The Mystery Method

POSTED BY Joel on Aug 27 under Advice

Trent recommended reading “The Game” by Neil Strauss. I picked up a copy and started to read it and quickly got hooked. I finished the “The Game” in a couple of days, voraciously tearing through it. Neil Strauss is a great writer with a good, balanced perspective of an outlandish topic: how [...]

China Should Never Have Been Given The Olympics

POSTED BY Joel on Aug 20 under Advice

The Olympics are not about totalitarian governments that send their citizens to “re-education through labor” camps, but that is what China has turned it into. China designated three zones near Beijing as “official protest zones” and 77 people applied to protest and they were all turned down. Many of them have disappeared and [...]

Great Video: NEVER TALK TO THE POLICE!!!

POSTED BY Joel on Aug 13 under Advice

A prestigious law professor makes a great argument for why you should NEVER, under ANY circumstances, speak to the police about ANYTHING!  He discusses the fact that there are over 10,000 different laws, many of which no one has any ideas that they are actually illegal and by talking to the police you can eventually [...]

Seattle Critical Mass Bicyclists Assaults Motorist

POSTED BY Joel on Jul 28 under Advice

What is Critical Mass?
“Critical Mass” is a movement of bicyclists trying to assert their rights to the road.  Bicyclists do have a right to the road, but they need to be just as careful and considerate as motorists do.  I commuted every day on bicycle to and from work in Seattle until I moved in [...]

I bet the guy in this picture regrets double parking his car.  Read the note left on his car after he was spotted double parking.

Firefox: No Sound in Videos, Videos Stop Playing After A Few Seconds

POSTED BY Joel on May 28 under Advice

A significant issue has arisen with Flashplayer (video player for Youtube.com, Funnyordie.com and many others) in Firefox… many videos that I have tried playing at home and at work recently have not worked.  The whole video loads and I can move the cursor to any point in the video, but the video has no sound [...]

How the Government Gives Rebate Checks

POSTED BY Joel on May 28 under Advice

You think that rebate check is free money, right?  Wrong.

The government takes money from the public with one hand (the IRS) and gives it back with the other (Congress)… unfortunately it also takes a healthy cut of that money in the process.
