  • Dvorak Invasion!

    I have to say, Dvorak has to be my favorite composer. Well, okay… Truthfully, he’s my favorite composer because my favorite classical piece is one of his. So, yeah. That’s why he’s my favorite. But this post has absolutely nothing to do with that. I’ve officially decided that I’m going to learn how to type…

    Today, in doing a part of the huge amount of reading that I have to do (for school, naturally), I’ve learned quite a few interesting things about the economy and how it works. I’m still pretty clueless when it comes to the recession that we’re facing today, but as far as how the economy itself…

    So, in the last little while, I’ve meant to post several rather interesting things, though I just haven’t gotten around to it. I suppose that I just need to get in there and do the stuff that I should. But, you know, procrastination and whatnot are so tempting! You see, in starting school again, I’ve…

    Apple Introduces Revolutionary New Laptop With No Keyboard I just had to include this. It’s not that I’m totally anti-Apple (not that I haven’t ever been), but I thought that it was pretty funny. So, I figured that I’d share it with all of you. It came from the onion, which is always a funny…

    I truthfully could not tell you how in the world this video ended up on my computer. As a matter of fact, somehow it managed to replace all of my old podcasts, like CNN’s daily news and whanot. Somehow, all of them disappeared, and this video (from over two years ago) appeared out of nowhere.…

  • Mr. Smith Goes to Washington: Wow/100

    I love old movies. I figured I’d say that. I suppose that it’s just something about the fact that they uphold good ideals and yet, at the same time, were ranked well for their time. As a matter of fact, after we, as a family, finished this film, Mr. Smith goes to Washington, reviewed the…

    I figured that I should write my own little review of a movie that I saw today. It was, overall, quite an entertaining movie. I was kept laughing through the majority of the film, and though that’s not the most difficult thing to make me do, it always makes a movie more entertaining. Aside from…

    I thought that you’d all like to know, pretty randomly, that I scored 55 (above average for the United States) on National Geographic’s Greendex test. I’m pretty proud of it, because being ‘green’ is trendy nowadays. I mean, everybody wants to be green, right? Anyway, I thought that it was pretty interesting, and I wanted…

    I know that I’m not the only one that greatly admires Google. Since I first discovered Google in the eighth grade while studying for a paper in my Social Studies class, I haven’t looked back. I haven’t once turned to another search engine. As a matter of fact, on several occasions, I have been heard…

  • Life – Through New Eyes

    Well, I suppose that cameras really don’t have eyes. But lenses and light sensors and whatnot are kind of close to eyes, right? In a technological sense? Anyway, last week I made a somewhat sudden (though also somewhat premeditated) decision to purchase a DSLR camera. I had been looking at them for the last little…
