HOW-TO: Laptop resurrection and upgrade – hack a day – www.hackaday.com _
I have been known to keep old hardware alive, long past it’s use-by date. Over the last year I acquired a couple of laptops. One of them had been smashed up (I think someone sat on it..) and the other got a drink spilled in to the keyboard. So I ended up with enough parts to make a cheap laptop.

White House dismisses Chavez assassination call

What in the crap is Pat thinking? He must have finally lost it. His comments are not what I call Christian, or for that matter helping our cause in the US.

These kind of remarks remind me of Jerry Falwell worried about the Teletubbies being gay, and Oral Roberts wanting a ton of money in what was it, six months or God would take his life? These people _do not_ represent me, and do not represent responsible leadership.

Notable People Who Died of Lung Cancer?

What kind of Stupid idiot would run this down the wire? and Why? Just because Peter Jennings passed away? I am sorry he died, but why doesn’t the Associated Press run an article on Notable People that Died of Cirrhosis? Gunshot Wounds? I don’t remember them running this when Renaldo Benson died on July 1st. (The second on their list). There are lots of others out there too as well as the Notable ones…

I don’t know, this just struck me wrong and seemed tasteless to make this sounds like a Who’s who list. Must be a slow news day at the AP.
