Consume: Cons, U, Me.

That "genius" Glenn Beck said the video "The Story of Stuff" is socialist propaganda, so for that reason alone, you should watch it. Take 20 minutes of your time, stay with it, and learn. As you watch, take a look around the room you're sitting in, and wonder how you ever got so much stuff.

Tards Who Lose Their Phones

OK, so I've never actually misplaced any phone, ever, but I know some youngsters who lose everything they've ever touched. Here's a handy website that does nothing but dial any phone number you provide to make that phone ring. If you can hear it, you'll be able to find it. I tested it, and it really works!

Go there and try for yourself!

Quoth The Raven, Nevermore

While wading through the Beatles remastered CDs, I stumbled onto something quite entertaining for us nerdy types, on the world wide web.

The University of Texas in Austin's Ransom Center has digitized its Edgar Allan Poe collection. Pictured at right is Poe's fair copy manuscript of the last stanza of his famous poem, "The Raven."

In addition to the manuscripts of “The Domain of Arnheim,” “The Spectacles,” and some of Poe’s most famous poems, the collection includes many letters written by and to Poe, and books belonging to Poe . One of my favorites is Poe's own copy of the book "The Raven and Other Poems [and] Tales," from 1845, with handwritten revisions and corrections by Poe, himself.
