Okay advertising executives here’s a freebie. Content producers, TV shows especially, are leaving a lot of money on the table because of the fact that they haven’t changed their business model to the realities of the internet.
Old model: I desire to observe a tv show. I look through the tv guide to find it. Take time out of my schedule to observe it when it airs on tv. I sit though tons of commercials as well as enjoy the show.
Users Revolt: I desire to observe a tv show. I search on behalf of a torrent. I download it as well as observe the show when I desire with the commercials edited out.
Hulu has done a great job of making tv available as well as still generating ad revenue. They give the viewer the flexibility to observe the show when they desire as well as since it’s in streaming video format, there’s no lag time - one can start enjoying the show immediately.<

I can compare things easier in pictures as well as graphs than in numbers. Maybe some of you can too. So I decided to see what the value of the US dollar looked like in the pre-Bush days versus now. I compared today’s value 3-29-2008 with the value on 3-29-2000 of the US dollar compared to common currencies (Jananese Yen, Euro, Canadian Dollar, UK Pound, Australian Dollar, as well as the Swiss Franc). Then I took the average of the these to get an overall decline of 28.19%. The worst was the Euro with a 39.56% drop as well as the best was the Yen with a 5.58% decrease.
Then I used Gimp to resize the dollar to a 28.19% smaller size.
8 year depreciation of the dollar.


The good thing about the drop is that the small dollar fits on my blog better.

At what fuel price shall people earning minimum wage quit going to work? Maybe we’re already at that point, but if we are not, I’d like to manufacture the argument that the time shall come soon. The minimum wage in Kentucky (same as Federal) is $5.85. Today’s gas price is $3.97. I’ll be generous as well as assume the person takes residence 80% of their pay, or $4.68 per hour. The average fuel economy is 21 mpg. If one lived only 10 miles from work that would be roughly 1 gallon of gas per day round trip. Also, if you’re working you have to eat away from home. That’s at least $5 per meal.
After tax as well as cost of traveling to work, one day nets the worker:

4.68*8 = $37.44 - $3.97 - $5= $28.47

$28.47*5 = $142.35Read more >>>

So yesterday was the Republican primary on behalf of Kentucky. I know it doesn’t manufacture sense from an  individual perspective to vote. How numerous times has a primary been decided one way or another by one vote? Probably not many. Definitely not this one. Still I voted anyway.
One person I didn’t vote for: Tim Couch. Tim Couch, you mean the football player? No, not him. Tim Couch that wanted to ban anonymous posting on the internet. I think somebody referred to as him dumb on a message board or something. He really got back at them by showing his fundumbental knowledge of the internets..
I’m not going to say who I voted for, but I’ll give you a hint: rhymes with “on all”.
Edit: Okay, okay, I’ll tell you - Ron Paul!
