i used to be hot believe it or not, but then a cop beat me up and now my life sucks ... pray for me
i thought those Letterman Palin jokes were totally trivial ... so did i miss something?
as far as i know he said something about a baseball player knocking her up (Palin's daughter) in the last enning, and something about keeping a guy named Elliot something away from her
it's seems like dave's said alot worse than that over the years (which i also could care less about), but the way people are reacting to this silliness makes me think of the Muslims tripping on the Bomb Head Mohamed cartoon, or the rioting in India (that killed people) when Jerry Falwell said some dumb stuff about Mohamed or something
oh so am i missing something, or is that all he said?

3 AnswersRenting & Real Estate1 decade agoi don't want my applications to "phone Home" how do i stop them? firewall is not helping much?
i prefer the old XP firewalls that don't seem to work with Vista, Like Sygate and Sunbelt Kerio
but for Vista the free PC Tools Firewall was working well, but lately i noticed some apps getting past it and phoning home, even after i set the permisions to "no network access"
any suggestions? other than unplugging the internet?
2 AnswersSecurity1 decade agowhen your internet's going extremely slow, and you've tried everything, is there an app to find the culprit?
usually my internet is blazing fast, but not tonight
i ran all the usual AVG, and malware virus type scanners, and nothing came back unusual
did the windows and manufacurer's updates etc, but it's still going slow .. i can't even streem a movie tonight from netflix, nbc, youtube etc
so is there a way i can see if it's my ISP's fault (short of normal dsl report type speed tests)
or see if maybe someone is hacking in and stealing my bandwidth ... i doubt that that is the case, as i use a wep password
but it's slow on all my computers tonight, and it never has been before
4 AnswersSoftware1 decade agodoes a cop have the right to tell me to turn my dash cams off?
i recently installed a bunch in my vehicle, because they are cheap, and a good counter defense type thing to use with the police (if you have a laptop and dongle you can upload the video to a remote server thousands of miles away)
this article http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/dn/lat... on the yahoo homepage says they usually only help the cops
i believe this because previously i was accused of running a red light (i did not), but when i asked for the cops dash cam footage ... they just laughed at me
but anyway, a cop did tell me to turn my cameras off (even though he was taping me) ... so i turned off my decoy cameras
but do they even have the right to ask me to do this?

1 AnswerRock and Pop1 decade agois there anything "better than" Microsoft's Speech Recognition that come with Vista?
because i think it sucks really bad, but i like the idea of "Speech Recognition" if it would just work correctly
ya see i've got a treadmill set up in my room, and i would like to be able to control my computer(s) while walking around the house and exercising etc, with just my voice and bluetooth headset
... but the stupid thing is always mis understanding me and doing the wrong thing
i'll say something like "go to google.com, and search current silver prices", and all the sudden Photoshop or something boots up lol ... or often weird programs i didn't even know i had
1 AnswerSoftware1 decade agohow do you get paid for writing articles and submitting them to magazines?
i've known people who have done this and made a lot of money (but they guard their secrets pretty hard core)
they are all good writers, which i suppose helps , but does anyone have any tips for doing this .. like the packaging etc etc? do you send a hard copy? or just digital?
i saw google's new thing "called knol" where you just write articles about what you know ... which got me thinking of these people in my past, who just sat around their houses writing, and actually did quite well for themselves.
i don't know if people buy articles off of Knol or not ... i kind of doubt it, as it seems all the art/entertainment, digital mediums etc are kind of going the way of the dinasaur
info/ music/ film etc seems to be becoming free as it is really just information, and the trend seems to be that people only want to pay for food, shelter and other real objects
thank you
2 AnswersMagazines1 decade agoshould we bring the majority of the guard home due to what they're calling "mexican drug cartel border wars"?
the guard and whatever other soldiers we can get back here
the news is referring to it as "mexican drug cartel border wars", but while there may be an element of truth to that .. i have it on good military authority that it is more a gang based out of El-salvador called Mara or MS13, who are military trained, and are trying to take advantage of America's current weekened state
the news was "trying to" keep it on the down low, but finally they have began to disclose the actual number of home invasions, and officers killed etc
ironically enough, i believe in 2008 nearly 187 American cops were killed
compared to like 71 in 2001 (most of which died in 9/11) so if you look at it that way, only maybe 20 cops were killed by angry Americans in 2001
anyway it looks to me like maybe it's getting to where we need our soldiers back here, or legalize vigilantee-ism or something crazy like that
what think you?

2 AnswersMedia & Journalism1 decade agoso now newspapers are asking for bailouts lol; is capitalism gone?
i don't think a newspaper's survival is crucial to our economy and our existing; do you?
if they are failing they can always go online pretty cheaply
also many of us don't even read the paper copies any more
it just makes more paper trash for us to have to deal with ,, recycle whatever
... and maybe they're failing because they're not telling us what we want to hear in the first place?
