Fortune 500 : March 22, 2004 : Note 4

Fortune Magazine has once again released their Fortune 500 list.  And once again, Wal-Mart tops that list… by a wide margin.  Wal-Mart brought in a staggering $258.7 billion worth of business last year! 10 companies of note, how much they made and whether they went…

Sheikh Yassin Is Dead : March 22, 2004 : Note 0

Sheikh Yassin, the spiritual leader of the terrorist Hamas group, was killed in an Israeli airstrike. I wonder what this will do to Hamas, if anything?  Probably only make them go into an even thicker lather, if possible. via

Peace Rally? : March 22, 2004 : Note 1

I’m sure there were some real anti-war demonstrators there at the “peace rally” in San Francisco and in other places.  You know, ones who aren’t social rejects, pot-smoking hippie wannabes, communists, anarchists, kids out having a good time or just plain whackos.  To those who really do have a point…

Why Do People Do This? : March 21, 2004 : Note 0

I really hate it when people link to an image residing on my server rather than copy it to their own server.  How lazy do you have to be to do this?  It takes all of a couple seconds to copy the image to your server and link to it. …

Casshern : March 21, 2004 : Note 3

I’m not quite sure what it’s about, but this Japanese movie looks pretty good!  It’s called Casshern.  It has some really well-done special effects and the story looks interesting.  It looks like a live-action anime, in the vein of The Matrix.  Lots of close-ups, combinations…

Get Out : March 21, 2004 : Note 5

Coming from me, this is a big deal, but I really like the Smirnoff ad called Get Out.  The ad is technically done very well.  There is no dialogue, no voices.  Just motion and an almost eerie background music.  It’s part of a series called Protest.  If I could find…

GUIdebook : March 20, 2004 : Note 0

GUIdebook is an excellent site that showcases the different GUIs of the major OSes and their elements.  It has screenshots of Mac OS, BeOS, OS/2, Solaris, Amiga and Windows from their earliest versions to the latest.  It even showcases different icons over time…

The Quiet Life : March 19, 2004 : Note 3

To give you an idea of how little happens around here, the opening of the new super Wal-Mart is enough to make headlines in the local paper.  In fact, the opening ceremony was at 7:30 am a couple days ago, and lots of…

FundRace 2004 : March 19, 2004 : Note 0

FundRace 2004 has a lot of information regarding fund-raising for the presidential candidates.  It’s quite interesting to see how the country votes with their money. The city map shows that a vast majority of left-wing contributors come from…

MIT Blog Survey Results : March 19, 2004 : Note 2

Fernanda Viégas at MIT has published the results of her blog survey.  A few months back, she had almost 500 people from all over the world answer her survey questions, including myself. She points out that many bloggers don’t consider…
