Notes:

Fare tax is a tax on purchased items. I've covered this. It keeps coming up. I love the idea because people who normally do not pay income tax will have to pay the national sales tax, or VAT tax or whatever form it takes. That is great. The idea of a fare tax means you eliminate income tax. Voters know that if we allow a fare tax, we will still have income taxes to pay. We are not stupid.

If our government wants the tax paying voters to trust them, then how about eliminating the income tax first. Then letting us vote on VAT or national sales tax or whatever you call it. Trust us, we will make the best decision for you, government. Don't worry, we know how

G. Gordon Liddy needs a letter from the interior minister of Canada to enter the country. He is a convicted felon after all. One time when his paperwork was messed up, he got formally deported five minutes after crossing the border. G. makes a phone cal lat 01:00 and the guard got his ass chewed. When asked if he had any spy equipment with hem G. produced a pare of binoculars. The guard had to let him in anyway. Heard on the G. Gordon Liddy podcast.

The first ATM went in to business in 1966 in London.

3 terabyte drives on their way this year. You will need a 64 bit OS to use it it seems. I thought the partitions were the limiting factor, not the drive. Here we are again with OS limits on drive size. Remember the two megabyte limit? Me either.

My G1 phone will not handle Android 2.1 and beyond. This blows. They say in another year or so there will be perhaps hundreds of Android models on the market, half of them not able to support OS updates. What is with this crap?

Came home and straight mowed the yard. Lowered the mower for Summer. It works much better with a sharpened blade. Didn't weed eat.
