Ya'll are always comparing Eminem and Tupac, and saying Eminem's better. Let me ask you this: What do you think his response would have been to this if it was directed at him instead of Biggie Smalls and all them?

"The fact that we are here today to debate raising America's debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the US Government cannot pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government's reckless fiscal policies. Increasing America 's debt weakens us domestically and internationally. Leadership means that 'the buck stops here.' Instead, Washington is shifting the burden of bad choices today onto the backs of our children and grandchildren. America has a debt problem and a failure of leadership. Americans deserve better."

~ Senator Barack H. Obama, March 2006

Keep this in mind next time you say "He's still working on his plan!" You CANNOT spend almost 4 years LAYING THE FOUNDATION of a plan! You have that plan set and ready to go, and you spend 4 years IMPLEMENTING that plan! Romney--Obama--what's the real difference? None. They serve the same master, and that master is NOT the American People! It may not be too late for Ron Paul.

I've had this thought many times before, but I've been brought back to it within the past 24 hours. Human society is doomed. Look around you. How do people treat other people? What kind of respect, consideration, or appreciation do they show? None. It doesn't matter what you do--people take the happiness you bring them for granted--they take everything for granted, really. Now, look outside a window or open your door and take a look. How much trash do you see on the ground? They can't even respect the EARTH. This is not a new problem, by any means. Ever since the very first human walked the earth, it has been defiled. Humans are not worthy. Their actions prove that point. If I were God, I would kill them all--granted, not EVERYONE is guilty, but enough to sentence all to the same fate. Punish most, while putting the rest out of their misery. Death really is a reward. I do not exclude myself from this--I know I am just as bad as anyone else, and I, too, am undeserving. I've laughed at fat people. I've mocked the handicapped. I've hurt the innocent creatures. I've taken much of what has been given to me for granted. I've made jokes at others' expense for their kindness. I deserve hell just as much as anyone else. Do not be mistaken--there IS a God and there IS a hell. I'm tired of running. I'm tired of regret. I'm tired of wearing false smiles and offering fake laughs. I'm tired of trying to make you people happy. I'm tired of this whole charade--on my part, and on all of your parts, as well. You, me, him, her, them, us--everyone deserves death. Man is NOT nature. We destroy everything we touch. We are the scourge of this planet. Over thousands of years, we have proven that we are worthless time and time again. Those who disagree are far too full of their pride to ever see the truth. "How can *I* be evil? I donate to charity." Or "I gave that homeless guy a dollar." Deep down, do you do these things to help THEM, or do you do these things to help yourself? Don't answer that. I have studied you all long enough to know the answer, so there is no need to lie, either. We are nothing but liabilities. And so, as I said, if I were God, I would destroy us all. There is no redemption--and the few will NEVER outweigh the many. It is too late.

I have an HP Pavillion that is about 3 years old, and recently bought a new router--Netgear 300. I have a Wii hooked up to the wireless network, a PS3, and a Nintendo DS, but the HP will not connect. I have tried darn near everything I could think of--it connects to other networks at other places, but not this one. I really don't want to change the router's security settings again since I just had to change everything to match what it is now (WPA). I mean, is it too much to ask that when we fork over hundreds of dollars, we get a quality product?!

Okay, recently, I have started a relationship with this woman (we are both in our early 30's).... I have been hurt pretty bad a few times in the past, so I'm scared to death half the time. I know she cares about me--she introduced me to her kids, we all went down to visit my family for Thanksgiving, we went out Christmas shopping for her kids last weekend and she had me keep all the presents at my house, she sends me really cute texts during the day and things like that, and last night, I hung out with her and a couple of her friends, and they seemed to like me. She's even got me on lockdown on Facebook (relationship status with her name). I make her laugh and smile all the time and I am terribly romantic (and fairly erotic). Well, there are other parts of this that I will not mention, but from what I've said... she's got to be serious, right? Like, she's not likely to tell me to f**k off next week or anything, right?
