My freedom runs at ring zero.

For many years, the primary obstacle hindering the mainstream acceptance of free software was the fact that Richard Stallman is a social misfit. It's no coincidence that it took the Open Source movement's rebranding of the exact same software to get people to finally understand what it's all about.

Most people do not know OR CARE about the difference between "free" and "Free" ... but anyone who knows a little about software knows what open source is.

Quite frankly, I think the FSF has served its purpose and is now quite redundant.
The goal has been realized; we now have a fully free software stack and the community that maintains it is more or less self-sustaining. All the FSF is now, is just a more whiny and belligerent version of the EFF.

This kind of reminds me of Happy Tree Friends, even though the style is totally different:

fleeb & dothebart: thanks for your comments.

What would you suggest I do about the websites I'm currently still working on?

They won't be finished for quite some time because they're very dependant upon my customer (the person whom requested the website). They're dragging their feet on what content they want on which page and which systems should be used, etc.

Again, thanks for the comments. I'll work more on my sites as I get around to them.

skpacman:

Well, I realize that, from your perspective, those other sites are unfinished, but in another sense, they are. They are already published, viewed by the masses, and basically done as done can be for the moment, until you get more information so you can provide an update to the web site.

Therefore, if you don't really feel it's publishable, you shouldn't link to it at all. Otherwise, just claim it as one of the web sites you maintain.

And there's the key word ... 'maintain'.

Now, if you feel there's more you could do with the site to make it presentable in some fashion, go ahead and improve it. I'm sure your customer will be happy with any improvements you make while you're waiting on their information.

If you don't think any of these sites adequately demonstrate your capabilities, then create something that does, even if it's kind of bogus, and link to it.

Found something interesting while stumbling around with StumbleUpon.

Kinda monty python-esque type humor.

It seems Lada Gaga was electrocuted during one of her shows:

One might argue that attending a Lady Gaga show is an even bigger fail than the botched execution in "The Green Mile."

The way the original sketch is ruined reminds me so much of why I often don't care to tell long jokes much.

Will It Blend?

I guess this was inevitable: Tom seems to have a rather negative attitude towards the Vuvuzela.

(I'm actually hoping that the Vuvuzela craze finds its way into American sports now that we know about it.)

I really enjoyed watching him blend it. I wish he'd blend them all.

Vuvuzelas and iPads have both been banned at Yankee Stadium. This may be the only time you hear the word "LOSE" used to describe something Yankees-related.
