GoDaddy Webmail II

This post is long overdue! On February 16th of this year, I published a post titled "GoDaddy Webmail”. The subject of the post was GoDaddy's 25mb email storage limit and the loss of 400 plus messages during a backup.

Well, little did I know that GoDaddy read the post and sent me an email informing me that email storage had been increased to 1gb. The kicker is the email was sent the day AFTER I published the original post. Kudos to GoDaddy's support team. Thank you!

Tesla gets some money

Looks like Tesla may be the future of the automobile industry. I'm certainly glad to see them get a cut. Still 50k is too much for me for the EV. I hope that our richer brothers are able to purchase them. I can't wait for the cheap one! I just hope my Neon '00 can hold out till then.

F*cktard Drivers II

At the end of January, I published a post titled "F*cktard Drivers”. If you read the post, you know it's about Slowski drivers that insist on speeding up when one is trying to pass them. I have encountered F*cktards since January, but recently encountered a major F*cktard!

A F*cktard driving a dark blue Saturn Outlook was creeping in the middle lane, so I decided to pass to his right. I accelerated to pass him and get back in the middle lane. Do you want to guess what the asshole did?

The F*cktard sped up and cut me off. Yeah, he is an asshole. The reason for this post is the F*cktard did it to others. I could see his dumb ass in the rear view mirror swerving around like an idiot. I should post your license plate number asshole.

Poker Night!

I have watched poker tournaments on television, but have never had an opportunity to play poker. Well, that is until tonight. Our good friend Rowbear called to extend an invitation to attend a scheduled poker night.

No sooner did I hang up the phone when our friend Scooter called to invite me too. I told him that I do not play poker, but he suggested I stop by to eat pizza, watch movies, or just hang out.

Well, I'm glad that I accepted their invitation. I played poker for the first time, got my grub on, and watched a couple of Austin Powers movies. I would have hung out a bit longer, but I wanted to publish a post before the end of the day. Thanks guys, I had fun!

Burning Up The Keys

Gman is on a blogging roll! Seven excellent posts in the past three days, nice! I am glad that you are back in the author role and getting your rant on. I am on a blogging roll too. Today marks one hundred seventy-one (171) consecutive days of publishing!

If we can persuade Scooter, Sum Yum, Kman, and Sam to post, it would be a virtual party! I post every night, so I am sure you mofos can roll off the couch for a minute to post a few words. Not to mention, your posts might actually be read by our growing reader base.

H2O Power!

H2O power, fact or fiction? Genepax Co. Ltd. has developed a new technology, which uses water as fuel. This is not the first time I have read reports of "H2O-powered" automobiles, but it's an interesting topic nonetheless.

Check out the video and articles for more information. I should note that some automotive resources claim the automobile is not powered by H2O as claimed, but powered by hydride (hydrogen is produced via a chemical reaction of metal hydride and water).

Censorship, Content, Money and Bing!

I just finished up reading "The Myth of Good Content" wherein the authors stipulates that having a website full of carefully placed words will not necessarily make your site more visible to end users. The author points out that the whole search engine business has become a game and the game is being played. That makes for tough luck for us little guys trying to swath our own cut of the digital field. However, WassupJose isn't actually a money making venture. We're not selling products out of the corner of our garage, but there is the idea that we're giving back to the community and maybe trying to create a forum of our own. We're interested in creating some place of the interweb where our voices are important and that's enough to keep us writing (mostly!).

Let’s fix everything by…

Recently in California, Governor Schwarzenegger has been trying to fix the state budget. Unfortunately, the way he originally decided to do that was to make sweeping cuts over the swath of state workers the state depends on. Bummer. Everyone was mad about the situation, but people generally accepted it. Then the governor decided to make more cuts and people got in a tizzy. So the head of the labor unions started putting pressure on the contracts and canceled all contracts that had yet to be unfulfilled. Now when the state is able to reissue contracts, they will have to go through the entire process over again duplicating plenty of person hours.

Recently in Germany, they've decided to handle the problem with child pornography by putting a system in place that will censor and filter what Germans are allowed to see on the internet. How can they not see the slippery slope here?

These politicians need to learn that these large issues cannot and should not be solved with blanketing solutions. They will need to get down to a lower level and start weeding out the bad pieces. Don't make the system worse by adding more layers of bullshit. Just because the kid in the back of the classroom decides to punch you in the face, doesn't mean that the whole class should stay after school. Let's get to fixing these problem in a real and meaningful way. In the case of the CA budget, there are certainly state workers that aren't worth a dime and simply milk the system. Certainly their are contractors who provide the same worthless none sense and then charge double to pretend to fix their mistakes. However, there is a whole class of hard working state workers and contractors that are being penalized for other people's mistakes and miscalculations. In the case of Germany, go stop the people that are creating and supplying child pornography. Don't start controlling the world's greatest asset.

Stop viewing the world from the ivory tower and get down here and help!

I just noticed that a visitor left a comment on the first-ever sexy hands and feet post, nice! As mentioned before, sexy feet and several variations are the top search terms. So, here is another pair of sexy feet. The footsies belong to a Vietnamese model, any guesses?
