old computer parts given new life!

Wondering what to do with all those old floppy disks, scratched CDs and random computer parts you can
â™t get yourself to throw away? Check out the clocks, notebooks and jewelry the clever folks at Acorn Studios have fashioned from old keyboard keys, circuit boards and floppy disks for a little inspiration.

The Depressing YouTube Videos of the Day

In 1985 a man named Paul Hardcastle wrote and arranged (and remixed, several times) a song about the Vietnam War.
Here’s two of the music videos. Watch. Think.

Now, having thought about it, what do you think a song about the “War on Terrorism” and the “War in Iraq” would sound like?

Mama's Family

Mama’s Family – Season One Episode One
Vint And The Kids Move In
http://video.aol.com/video/tv-mamas-family-vint-and-the-kids-move-in/1813811
The first episode. I watched it a few minutes ago, through AOL and WB’s In2TV. I had never heard of this service/program until tonight, when I saw a commercial on ION. So, I crept downstairs, hopped on the computer and went searching. I clicked through the list and decided to watch this episode, for I had never seen it. What a treat it was.
I think I’ll go back and see what other shows are available.

questions without answers

So, why am I trying? Really? Why am I trying to go to school? Will I really better myself? Will I really become something? Will I really be able to achieve the dreams that I once had? Will I really be able to be happy?
I sit here, and I wonder about these things, and I fear that nothing will happen That nothing will come of any of this. Tat I shall remain trapped. That I shall continue o be unhappy. That I will never feel the joys and aspirations that my heart so desires.
I think and wonder whether I should just give up this dream, and whether I should go crawling on my hands and knees, back to that factory.
Why did I leave?
What am I doing?
What’s wrong with me?
