Do you really care? Ok...fine.I'm 25 years old..and I've been 25 for about 10 years now so BACK OFF! I'm a Sr. Programmer Analyst in my company's custom Microsoft software division which basically means I'm a computer geek and Bill Gate's b*tch--and I have the Microsoft certifications to prove it.I'm into quite a lot of things but to pick a few: *Reefkeeping (not to be confused with reefer-keeeping)*Martial Arts (doing, not watching)*Movies (watching, not doing)*Photography (it's hereditary)*Playing computer games where I get to kill people (it saves me from having to do it in real life)Happy now?

In 1968, a white firefighter saved a black baby girl, touching the heart of a divided city. The two did not meet again. Until yesterday. (Nice Video)

Fashion critic Mr. Blackwell dies in Los Angeles Posted: 1 year ago by Fizz71
You may not know the name, but you know the lists! Mr. Blackwell was responsible for some of the most critical "Worst-Dressed" lists that hammered celebrites from Zsa Zsa Gabor to Britney Spears.
I think they should all go to his funeral wearing the garbs he trashed!

An Olympic Story NOT about a Spoiled or Cheating Athlete Posted: 1 year ago by Fizz71
This is an article about one of Somalia's athletes...One of TWO athletes they sent. Put in the wrong event by her country she got her butt kicked, but still got a standing-O from the crowds. I just felt like posting a link to something other than a negative story since there were a lot of them out there.

Microsoft sued over Xbox Live outage. Posted: 2 years ago by Fizz71
XBox Live had some issues over the holidays with the massive influx of new users. Some people could not access the service and so they are now sueing Microsoft for damages.
Wait...A game server is down and you're damaged? I guess they had nothing else to do if they can't play online. For God's sake...read a friggin' book!!!
BTW..They plan on giving a free acrade game to everyone.

Man mistaken for a terrorist while reading a book about a man mistaken for a terrorist. Posted: 2 years ago by Fizz71
Define Irony: A man was asked to leave a pub after other patrons were paranoid about the book he was reading titled "The Unknown Terrorist." The book is about a man who is mistaken for a terrorist and subjected to a witch hunt of paranoia and false perceptions.

Pay your respects to Mr. Whipple (1916-2007) Posted: 2 years ago by Fizz71
Richard Wilson, the actor and pitchman who played the uptight grocer begging customers "Please, don't squeeze the Charmin," died Monday. He was 91.
Another part of my childhood dies. And sorry, he really went by the name D*ck Wilson but the profanity filter didn't like that. :)

Researchers made 102 phone calls to IRS employees and posed as computer help desk workers. They asked for their user names and to change their passwords to one they suggested. Out of 102 people, 61 complied.
The good news is at 60% that's 11% better than 6 years ago!!! Way to go IRS..by the year 2010 maybe we can get it down to only HALF of your employees being idiots!

Drag Queens and Hippies and Disco...Oh My!!!
This video is from the AGT Season 2 finale with some of the failed acts singing "We Are the Champions" by Queen. It was LIVE and contained folks that got X'd off previously for being totally ridiculous, as well as some so-so talented folks that just didn't make it.
I actually liked the Sax guy, and the big black woman in red is actually a male comedian..not a singer. The flaming pogo stick was sweet too!
