For quite some time now I have thought about this topic, and what causes it. Is it taught? What if it was born into people? So many times people put blame on our education (by parents, and etc.), not saying that they’re wrong, but what if it wasn’t, what if it was in our blood. [...]

Fellowship of the Rings – 10/10 The Two Towers – 10/10 I’ll probably watch it a few more times before it leaves the theater (which won’t be for months I’m sure). Gollum was particularly impressive — especially because they had so much to lose if it was done poorly. Peter Jackson is a genius.

$result = mysql_query(“SELECT parent,MAX(id) as id,count(*) AS num FROM fft_comments group by parent ORDER BY id desc LIMIT 5″); This query gets the data for the “Recent Comments” section on fft.askthefool.com. The point is to get the last five unique parent based comments and count the number of posts for that parent in the entire [...]

Too many people think Microsoft is the devil and consider it to be the symbol of corruption and evil. People complain about how Microsoft is a monopoly. A monopoly is a market structure in which a single seller of a product with (1) no close substitutes serves the entire market. To maintain a monopoly a [...]

While doing something I rarely do any more (read info’s), I happened to read a person’s (I went to school last year with) AIM info. He had crap in their about how he wants to commit suicide and why ‘God wasted his time on (him)’. Pathetic is the only words to describe it. Suicide is [...]

Nikon Coolpix 5700 : ) Bought it from a site called BuyDigitalDirect.com. I suggest you look into it for electronics. Cheapest I could find around. Moving on, one thing I really need to learn better from my dad is negotiating the price. I spent like 35 minutes on the phone with the sales representative, and [...]

According to the Webster Dictionary, greed is “an excessiveness of desire for wealth or gain”. However I believe that Webster left this definition incomplete. Perhaps if we change the definition to “an excessiveness of desire for wealth or gain for ones self” then we can see more of the true meaning. Greed has been with [...]

I love that feeling I get sometimes before I take tests. Its not a feeling of ‘I know everything’, or ‘I tried my best’, or ‘I’ll be happy with whatever I get’, or ‘I hope I do well’. It’s a feeling that I know I’m going to get an A on this. This what its [...]

I still consider my self to be agnostic, meaning that I believe there is no definite way to know if God exists or doesn’t. Imagine being told to go find the “missing chick” at the beach. “What does she look like?” you ask. “Never mind that. Just find her” you are told. You cannot possible [...]

Why is it that we, as people constantly try to simplify life? Life is complicated, life is unexplainable, and life is always changing. Each day, we watch the blueprints of our surroundings put into neat little equations of our textbooks. As I say to many of my friends, if people could, they would simplify all [...]

Late last night (around two) I was flipping channels thru all the paid programming junk that’s played after midnight. I happened to come across something called “Fire-Walking”. I had heard about it before but never really knew about it. The documentary was on how this guy Anthony Robbins devised a scam about it and made [...]
