Amateur Radio Shows Steady Yearly Growth And Nick Can Suck Eggs (Rotten Ones, Too!)
When most people think of Amateur Radio, also known as “Ham Radio”, they think of a bunch of dusty old codgers sitting in front of a wall of wires and short circuiting old microphones, talking about the good old days and how they can’t stand the next door neighbor’s kid’s saggy pants.
Sure, those guys exist but Amateur Radio as a whole has taken quite a journey over the last 100 or so years.

Dear Video Game Developers; Please Stop Sucking.
That’s right, I said it. You suck. Well most of you, anyway, and it’s high time you stopped before Rob has to slap someone in the tooth locker.
I remember when I first started playing computer and console games. Back in those days, during the technology boom, things were infinitely better than they are today and it’s YOUR fault!

Review Time! Rift – A Contender For The MMO Heavyweight Belt? Includes gameplay videos.
If I was a betting man, I’d gladly put at least 12 cents in to the pot saying the folks over at Trion Worlds spent more than a little time perusing the World Of Warcraft forums and various websites, building a list of the complaints and wants of WoW players and then building their game.
We all know that WoW has been the undisputed heavyweight champion of the MMO world for years but let’s just say Blizzard better get on point because this “under the radar” MMO release may just steal their thunder, along with their customer base, as it catches on.

Irony, thy name is Sonic
So…
After the movie today I was a bit peckish and stopped in at Sonic to grab a bite and noticed the new hot dog menu they have. On that menu there was an item called the “All American Dog” which is pictured above.
I just want to point out that there’s precisely nothing about this which is American.
The hot dog itself is also known as a frankfurter; a type of sausage developed in Frankfurt, Germany.
The sweet pickle relish, aka “pickle chutney” has its origins in India.
The mustard is from France, developed by a bunch of monks, after getting some mustard seed from the Romans.
The ketchup is derived from a spicy Chinese sauce called “Ké Tsiap (茄汁)”
And then there’s the onions. I didn’t even bother to research those but I think it’s fair to say we didn’t invent those, either.
It was damned good, though.
What’s in a name? That which we call a hot dog, by any other name would taste as yummy.
Movie Review – Sucker Punch
When the movie first started, and through the first main sequence, I was delighted with the thoughts of how bad I was going to slaughter this movie when it came to review time. I even sent the staff a message saying “This movie sucks balls” and commenting that the stunning visuals and great sound basically amounted to wallpaper in a shithouse.
Then, I got it…
