Beer was responsible for technology

A BRITISH boff working over the pond claims that humanity's first technological breakthroughs were because of the development of beer.


Sweet!
Maybe April and I's drunkin porch discussions may lead to next great invention.

Kansas City Kansan - News Museum working to preserve KCK area?s filmed history

The Wyandotte County History Museum is more known for its historical artifacts than anything that might excite a modern-day technology enthusiast.

However, a recent effort to convert old reel-to-reel movies from the 1940s and 1950s onto DVDs will allow history to move forward.


Maybe I could get a job doing this

Wii and DS Turn Also-Ran Nintendo Into Winner in Videogames Business - WSJ.com

But against the odds, Nintendo has become the company to beat in the games business, as the Wii flies off store shelves nearly as quickly as the company can make them. The buzz about the Wii has overshadowed the even greater success Nintendo has had with the Nintendo DS, a portable game player that is still selling briskly more than two years after its introduction.


Go Nintendo!

Virginia imposes few restrictions on the purchase of handguns and no requirement for any kind of licensing or training. The state does limit handgun purchases to one per month to discourage bulk buying and resale, state officials said.



I keep reading blaring ideas of how such a thing could have happened? I found it odd that no one seems to think that it in the infrastructure that is set in place to keep us out of harms way could be the problem. I have read various headlines on various news outlets and sources, that this type of incident must be the result of all the violent video games, that the future of American are wasting away on. I claim, this to be a totally unprovable avoidance for trying to find a reason for such a horrible event. Can you image being the families and class mates of those people? I don't think so.. So stop formulating what is the cause of the problem, and work to create a system that does not allow this to happen.

Another personal side note that I find very disturbing, is just this week at work we have been joking of an employee having the same possible outcome if circumstance was to arise. Well that particular circumstance did arise, and I don't think many of find that joke very funny anymore.
Also as that place of employment just got reviewed due to problems of selling licensing, and storing firearms.
