This looks and feels like spam/scam/. The goverment should know about this.

In Texas a 12 year old girl was "seized" from her parents by child welfare. The parents were alleging blocking her radiation treatments. So where did they find the 12 year old when the state issued an amber alert, 80 miles west of Corpus Christi, TX with her mother on their family ranch.

It does seem like abuse of power when they are using the amber system to track down a kid that is with their mother on the family ranch.

In addition to arresting the mother of the 12 year old for interfering with child custody, they also took away 3 sons of the mother and put them in a foster home.

The girl has cancer, and before the state seized a daughter away from her mother, she went through chemotherapy already. The parents wanted to wait until after the chemotherapy was done to make further decisions about their daughter’s life.

This is the land of the free and the parents, as long as they are not showing signs of abuse and neglect, should damn well have the final say so in what happens to their own daughter’s life.

Would you like the state to step in and make decisions on your life and how you live it? Force your family to split up and change your life completely?

If the child has been through enough and wants to make their own decision, there shouldn’t be anyone stopping them, only supporting them.

The girl is 12 and by law her parents are responsible for their daughter. And if the state governmentdoesnt like what they as a family have decided on, oh well, get over it. The state doesnt own anyone.

Of course doctors want you to listen what they say, of course they do, they went to school for many years to remedy a situation like this. They can give their input and thoughts. Thats as far as they go. The state doesnt pay my medical bills, so how can the hospital be in with the state goverment?

But when it comes to the state government, tracking you down, taking away your kids because of something they think is right, bullshit, not happening here.

I hope this is not as bad as it sounds. Maybe it is a good thing we have militias.

As we all know google runs adsense, the revenue maker for google. As I ranted before google has free rein on what and where they can advertise. Take for instance searching google for "free email".

A lot of us have heard about google's gmail. Since its announcement, its sign up has been closed to the world. Sure they have allowed invites and one day advertised on google.com for signups to the google mail sevice.

But what makes no sense is how google can take the top advertisements for the search term "free email" when you can't sign up for gmail. Go to google and search for "free email" and then try to sign up, you can't. But google can take first dibs to make sure everybody that searches for email, finds gmail but cant sign up. And the other free email providers that are paying to be listed on googles results, sure as hell have a sign up form so that they can have a return on the $1.00 or more a click they pay google to deliver traffic to their free email service.

Over the last several months I have been monitoring google. Google has a very strange way of doing business. For the entire time I have been monitoring Googles search results and search results ads I have never seen google advertise thier blogger service on the right side of their site. They have always taken the more expensive route by displaying their advertisements where only $50,000 advertising budgets get listed, directly above the search results.

The right side of googles search results pages display paid advertisements. To have an ad displayed there you must be a member of adsense. Adsense is also run by google.

Previous to this day when we started advertising on the word "blogger" at google, their was no ad from google to be found.

Today, this day in history google has decided to do what it does for its webmail service. It takes top rank over all the advertisements. To anyone this sounds like no big deal, maybe its not for you. If you are interested at all please read below.

So what we have here is google the search engine, google the manager of the ads displayed on google and blogger a service google bought and now own. As of today when you search for blog, blogs, blogger, free blog, no longer is google advertising at the top of their search results but on the right hand side, were advertisements are supposed to be placed for paying companies to drive business to their own site.

The way adsense works is advertisers place bids on words searched by google. The more you are willing to pay for the traffic, the higher you are ranked in the listing of advertisements. So someone paying thirty cents a click would be placed farther down in the advertisments than a business paying $1.00 a click.

I wanted to find out how much it would cost to bid higher than google to become the first listed advertisment on the search result "free blog". Just for the record untill today you could bid $1.00 and have the highest listed ad for the search "free blog" and the other blog searches. I put a bid for $5 a click and still listed second to googles blog service blogger. I was willing to pay 5 times what the normal was for advertising on google and that was not enough for them.

So now for the search term blog, anyone will come second to google no matter what. Not anyone single person, other than bill gates would pay over $5.00 a click. And depending on what other business google gets into, you will fall second to them as well.

And where advertisers have to pay to be advertised on google's adsense, google gets a free rein on the top rank and abuse their own service, with services that they own or buy out.

What kind of business practise is it when google pisses off the advertisers that are paying googles way.

Here is a quote taken yesterday from Howard Deanm recorded by the san fransisco chronicle, "The Republicans are not friendly to all different kinds of people and they all pretty much behave the same, look the same, uh and its pretty much an all white Christian party."

Lets not confuse this but not saying that howard dean, even though he may not like it, he is white. And to cut off the other toe, he happens to be a christian too. None the less it brings greate material to the web and here are a few links to some funny dean stuff.

If you come across some chinese food in your refrigerator and you cant remember the day you got it, even if it looks o.k. to eat, do not eat it.

Self, this chinese food could in actuality be old and might make you puke all over the place. This could end up costing you money. A visit to the hospital is not free. There must be something we can eat, maybe find another lover. Should I fly to los angeles, find my asshole brother.

We all know microsoft is out to make user friendly software and somehow they make things just that much more confusing. I know I have complained about microsofts antiSpyware software before but when the message confuses an IT technician, somebody has got to say something.

The image to the right is a dialog box that appears when Microsofts AntiSpyware finds a program that is doing something out of the ordinary. It could be a program trying to access the internet or some program trying to write to the systems registry.

This time, as the alert states, "Microsoft AntiSpyware has detected an Internet Explorer Web Browser trying to be added. A web browser is a program inserted into Internet Explorer that gives programs full control over Internet Explorer."

The first reason why this is confusing is that Internet Explorer is a web browser. How can Internet Explorer browser be added to anything? It is already installed?

A web browser is not a program in internet explorer. Internet Explorer is a web browser. A web browser is: Software that gives a user access to the World Wide Web. Web browsers provide a graphical interface that lets users click buttons, icons, and menu options to view and navigate Web pages. Netscape Navigator, Microsoft Internet Explorer, Mozilla FireFox and Opera are popular Web browsers.

So by going by this message if you have a browser like FireFox installed and you instert it into Internet Explorer (whatever the hell that means), you will have full control over Internet Explorer.

Ahhh so thats why there are so many exploits for Internet Explorer. Since FireFox is becoming more and more popular and since it is being installed on more and more computers that have Internet Explorer, FireFox is creating security flaws in the Internet Explorer browser. So all along it was the other browsers installations to blame for Internet Explorer security flaws.( just in case you thought the last two paragraphs were serious, they were not, it was complete sarcasm.)

So you don't know. Thats why you are here. The return of the stinky meat project is at hand. This time the east coast will be facing off against the midwest.

What does this involve? Various meats set outside for days on days in the rain and sunshine. What can you expect? A stink beyond all belief an angry girlfriend for having to use the back yard and possible visits from the police as neihbors may complain.

When will this all go down? Very soon. Stay tuned.

Browsing around the world wide web I ran across a Latino meet people site. The site calls itself "The Latino People Network".

I went to a part of the site that allows you to browse users for free. And then I noticed none of the peoples pictures from the sign up screen look the least bit latino. You be the judge, the link is here:

We have a toilet at work that blows my friggan ear drums out of their sockets. Not that ear drums have sockets, but this toilet is loud.

Compare your toilet to the Kohler 1.6 gallon flusher. I'm here to tell you that this thing is mean. So mean in fact I find myself cursing it everytime I have to flush it because its so loud.

I now have it down to a science. What I have to do in order to complete each mission is hold my ears with both hands and use my good leg(left leg) to balance while I use my right leg to kick the switch.

But why is it so loud? After a little hunting I found out that newer toilets and the upper models have pressure tanks.
