Lost Generation

This is awesome.  Tragic I don’t know that the kids that this is aimed at are going to completely understand it.  I can only hope they understand that GenX f’d up and we are trying to fix it.  Well most of us are.

Pirate bay… Bummer, just bummer.

A pyrrhic victory was the best term they could have coined for the judgment against pirate bay. It is a shame that the world has been taught by Hollywood that pirates/hackers are malicious people that want to see the world burn. Innovation is born from hacking/piracy. Such a disappointment. We can only pray that th appellate courts let these guys go free, and educate the world that innovators aren’t criminals.

Politicians and the Reno Aces.

This has been one of my biggest disappointments in some time.

I love professional sports. Sports of all types. I love going to live games. When we got a Minor League Baseball team in Reno I was ecstatic. I did procrastinate a bit for getting tickets. That was my fault. I couldn’t get opening day tickets. I went to the box office and tried to bribe someone, anyone. Just wasn’t happening. I did get tickets for other games already… and I am happy. Shame on me for not getting opener tickets.

I was at $DAYJOB today and I heard a receptionist calling someone at the Aces on behalf of $DAYJOB CEO, asking for another ticket for Opening Day. I took all I had to bite my tongue. Basically the politicians get to have tickets called in at the last second, and me the fan, they guy that was cheering on D-Backs for taking a risk on Little ‘ol Reno… The guy that has to scrimp and save to get season tickets is shit on.

Any thoughts?
