Well, we've done it...
We just purchased our first new car together. Given our proclivity for naming cars, this one is called "Widget".

2 posts in 2 days, holy crap!
Well, back again for another rant...
Why is it that people cannot respect other people's stuff? Wheather it be their car, their house, or even their lawn that they have spent years perfecting. If I was retired and had spent massive amounts of time on my lawn. Trimming it, making sure my lawn mower had a sharp blade so it would be cut very evenly, fertilizing it, all for the sake of making look as good as possible, and then some da,mn kid goes walking across it over the course of months/years...... Ok, here is what was reported to the news. What was not made mention of in the radio broadcasts, TV broadcasts was this. This kid has been vandelizing this old guy's lawn for years. He has made police reports, asked the kid not to go across his lawn, and generaly been nice about things (Never had any sort of criminal record). The kid has been a little shit and has been getting all of his friends to harass the old guy. He has been threatening the old guy and has been a general miscreant. The neighbors have all describing the kid as "A good boy". But, wasn't Jeffery Dalmer also described the same way??? The old guy finally got frustrated enough and shot the little shit. Two Times. In the Chest. Let's see. Un-authorized tresspassing, harassment, threatening behaviour. I hope he had threatened to kill the old guy, because that would make the guy be able to "Fear for his life".
How hard is it to RESPECT OTHER PEOPLE'S STUFF???

More "Nanny State" ranting
Oh, almighty government, protect us from stuff the big bad world out there. Keep us ignorant and helpless../.
Slashdot article here.
Lately it seems that I onmly post when I want to rant about shit. This is the latest. Australia (The land originally invaded by criminals and the unwanted from England has decided that they need to protect themselves from PORN! Oh my dog! The Labor Party has said that if they get control of the parlement, then they will enact laws that would require ISPs to filter out Porn and Violent content. Lets see, the multi billion dollar Porn industry is going to just sit back and not try to get around this filtering by changing how their websites work. They claim that they are doing this because the parents lack the know-how to install content filtering software on their PCs. Lets see, force the ISPs to protect the people who are too damn lazy to check up on their kids to see what kind of smut they are looking up today. Here's a fricken solution. If you are that stupid that you cannot install some of the easiest software in the world to install (Net Nanny, CyberSitter, etc...) then pay the teenager down the street $20 to install it. If you still are too stupid to do this, then put your PC in the livingroom! Don't let the kids on it unless you can supervise them! For dog's sake, don't give them a PC in their own rooms because they WILL find porn. Talk to your kids. Take interest in your own damn kids!
AAARRRRGGGHHHHHH!!!!!!!
