Today's Ann Arbor News has the front page of the business section showing an Indian female answering "qurestions" in India from American welfare recipients. And the news has some articles on the growing trend of outsourcing. In regards to legal work, the most interesting revelation is that "work is going to India because English is spoken there". Imagine that! In the past 10 years I've heard the dumbest questions about India - all from educated people. Should I call them ignorant? When it comes [...]

A crazy man from Athens once exclaimed "life is bigger, It's bigger than you, And you are not me". I have a personal belief that everyone on this planet knows that there is something bigger than them. And I think that each one of us long to be part of that "bigness" in some way. Our reasons may vary but the intent is there. I see this in religion, following God or a faith. Or in people who take up humanitarian or social causes. [...]

Authorities said that Leach confessed to the crime after seeing Mel Gibson's controversial movie, "The Passion of The Christ" and he decided to seek redemption. He told investigators he [...]

Checking Yahoo Mail I find this. Idiot spammers think that idiot internet users will fall for their gimmick if their message looks legitimate. Isn't it a bit obvious that messages repeating twice in your inbox fall into the questionable category? This sender probably hit the send button twice. I didn't check to see if they originated from the same source. I deleted them immediately. I hope everyone realizes that any spam email you open may bring you more spam or worse infect your computer [...]

This woman in Atlanta apparently aready was a millionaire. Three times over! Too bad the local friendly Wal-Mart brought her back to reality. On Friday, Pike tried to use a couple of Wal-Mart cards to pay for $1,671.55 worth of items. But she only had a total of $2.32 on the cards, police said, so she handed the cashier a $1 million bill. Pike then asked for change for her $1 million bill, police said. That would be $998,328.45. When police arrived, Pike pulled [...]

A girl from Belgium I met on the internet said she hated blogs. Why? Because she thought they were just the current fad. Although I know she was wrong, I do agree that the vast majority of subject matter in most blogs is inconsequential. Outside of technology related and politics related blogs, the remaining multitude are "personal diaries". I am a fan of these diaries, no matter how asinine or fickle they come across. I say this only because each of these particular blogs [...]

Well, I've owned my domain name for about a year now. I decided it was time to fix a long list of nuisances and issues on my website. Yeah, that's it. Sorry to disappoint but my "re-launch" was nothing special. Everything still looks the same, but it should look just a little bit better. Let's see if I can list my changes ... Much better navigation ... Lots more content - Links, some stuff in Pictures and "In & Out" sections ... Archives completely [...]
