Point Microsoft


Blog

I made a crack at Microsoft the other day. I get frustrated with their software at times. The problem is, I rely on them. Everything I have works on Windows and it would take far too long and possibly too expensive to get things running the way I want on another OS. I said something […]

To be afraid


Blog

Natural isn’t always best for animals, either. It’s filled with hunger, frustration, exhaustion, weariness, dilapidation, trouble, and death.
