So I am on the market after getting my masters. I’ve posted my resume to Dice and Monster and a couple others. Monster gets the most unsolicited calls. I’m finding that recruiters are an odd lot. There are some who are pleasant, though to a man (or woman) they’ve never heard of NLP or computational [...]

Tales from the Oligarchy
Posted: 20 January 2008 in UncategorizedTags: big corporations, corporate media, iraq war, kucinich, media, politics, presidential election
There is a fine line between conspiracy theory and reasonable deduction. Most would agree it is insane to believe that a group of elite men have existed since before the founding of the United States with the purpose of ruling the world from secret. Most would agree that it is insane to believe that 9/11 [...]
The Bush’s Mental Health
Posted: 31 October 2007 in UncategorizedTags: big corporations, endless war, evil politicians, insanity, iran, iraq war, kucinich, nuclear weapons, politics, presidential election
Dennis Kucinich is not afraid to say the thing many people are wondering. Is Bush freakin nuts? Does he really think World War III is going to break out if Iran gains the knowledge of how to make nuclear weapons? Who are the sides? The middle east versus the rest of the world? Oh and [...]
Give Kucinich a Hand

I received this email today from Dennis Kucinich’s election campaign (below the jump). It’s a quick poll where you choose your top 3 candidates (democratic) for president if you had to vote today. So I voted Kucinich, Gravel, and Edwards. The (optional) reason I gave was that Dennis is the only principled candidate and is [...]
When will China self-destruct?

I think it’s only a matter of time before a giant ecological disaster kills multiple millions of people in China. Just recently, the third largest lake in China has become overwhelmed by toxic cyanobacteria. The two million residents of the area surrounding Lake Tai can no longer rely on their main source of water due [...]
Clinton vs. Obama

I keep feeling the need to write about the battle of the media-darling corporate stooge warhawks. Everyday I see something about fundraising by this candidate or that (and by this I mean Clinton and by that I mean Obama). And everyday I am troubled. When I start to write about it, my thoughts on the [...]
Maybe you’ll listen if you’re under water

If sea levels rise one meter, we could see a lot of stuff disappear beneath the waves, including Wall Street. Maybe then corporations and certain politicians would listen to reason. A bunch of historical landmarks would be affected as well, including Jamestown.
West Not-so-Virgin-ia

Poor West Virginia. They have it really bad. Every county in that state has a sign saying “a certified business location”. I always wondered just what the bloody hell that was supposed to mean. They are outright begging people to put a business there. I was amazed to see the unemployment rate is really low, [...]
Barack Obomba

My friend John (the Wrathful Dove) pointed me to a great article today about Barack Obama, who is turning into quite the warhawk. This comes as no surprise. All of the mainstream candidates are clones of W with a different set of pretty noises to placate one special interest or another (be those the religious [...]
Xtreme Weather

Extreme Weather Making History — Discovery News Of course this comes as no surprise and years like this one are probably going to become the norm. I’m actually kind of hoping for the weather system to do some crazy flipflop and plunge us into an ice age. That’ll show those big corporations and the evil [...]
