a small break
January 22, 2003
Taking a small break from working on some php projects to write about a few things.
Lately people seemed to wraped up about the whole Iraq issue and that there is going to be a draft when we go to war. Personally i dont think there will be a draft and i am sick and tired of people saying that there is going to be one. Granted i dont know that for sure, but its my point of view. Also I understand we need to get that loon out of power over there before he does something stupid (like start WW3). But one thing is that with the millitary force we have now, we will just end up bombing the shit out of his country and then send in the troops to mop up. If they need more troops they have plenty of reserve units to pull from.
Also as for North Korea, i dont think anything is really going to come from that. Granted things are tense, but its just the North trying to use blackmail in order to get what they want because they are in pretty bad shape right now. The funny thing is that they will get what they want…and the circle continues.
Now that i am done with the things out and abroad, time to hit in on a few things from the home front.
Recently there has been a lasting battle between groups such as the RIAA vs. the general public. First off i want to send a big fuck you to these groups. Everyday our rights as consumers are slowly being taken away from us. They sit there and nail us with high prices on CDs and wonder why everyone wants to swap music over the internet. But they will tell you well its because of the priacy that’s going on nowadays. I remember about 6-7 years ago, walking into a Media Play and dropping $11-13 dollars for a CD. Now fast forward back to present day, that same CD is now selling for $16-17 at places like Media Play and as high as $20 in the mall stores. Now in order to protect their interests, the RIAA is trying to push the goverment (more like buying them off) to pass all sorts of niffty piece of legistration that will do nothing but cause us the consumers more grief.
ok back to coding
