work work

It’s been a while since I’ve made a post, but I’ve decided to once again post on the folly of job searches. I’ve currently got an internship with MannKind Corporation, a biopharmaceutical firm with a manufacturing plant in Danbury, CT, where I’m working. Out of about thirteen interns, I’m the only college grad, and yet, [...]

Isn’t humanity grand?

According to a Popular Science RSS feed article, wolves have recently been taken off the endangered species list. And three states already have plans to put them back on the list, if not wipe them out completely. I realize that the wolves are eating farmers’ cattle, but it’s a fact of life. The wolves were [...]

The Ultimate Badass

A while back I posted about an article on Wired.com that discussed how one would go about killing a 500-foot monster that was invading Manhattan. It seems to me that a lot movies and such are stuck in the direction of where the ultimate badass is some enormous monster, spewing fire and crushing buildings with [...]

WordPress gets a face lift

And quite frankly, Marsha, it sucks. I knew this was coming; the We-Town site I spoke of in other blog entries had the update, and I didn’t like that either. So now I’m stuck with this new look, which, to me, is less intuitive than the previous one. Plus, it doesn’t even look more flashy [...]

Imporant news!

NASA reports that life has been found on Mars!

Graduating and no possible jobs in sight

It’s hard to believe it, but the time is fast approaching when I accept my college diploma. This is quite a scary thought. And it is even more so because I’ve got no job possibility in sight. I’ve had one interview for a sales job I don’t want because I’m not charismatic enough for sales, [...]

Sony gets rid of the “crapware” for a price

I haven’t owned a new brand-name computer since my Dell Inspiron 5150 (gag) that was given to me as a going-away-to-college gift in 2004, but I do remember all the crapware that was pre-installed on it. What’s crapware, you ask? Well, it’s all of the ads, trials, and programs on your computer that a company [...]

Ten things you didn’t know about me

I got this idea from an article on the Tom’s Hardware RSS feed. I thought it was cool and wanted to share. I realize that my blog as a whole is supposed to revolve around media/new media/technology things for my class (and this is the second blog I know doesn’t really), but I should get [...]

Strong, agile, and scary as sh&t

No, I’m not talking about Arnold Schwarzenegger. I found this article on the Popular Science RSS feed while perusing an almost record-setting number of articles (for lack of a more technical term). It’s a new robot designed to mimic a pack mule. The robot is quite an amazing feat of technology, but is quite scary-looking. [...]

Government fail!

In an article posted on one of The Wall Street Journal’s RSS feeds has proven that once again the government has failed. It reached a record monthly deficit, for any month, in February. I’m not quite sure how it’s possible to do this in the shortest month of the year (even if it did have [...]
