To change the dark undertones of my prior post:
As do most bloggers, I search through Technorati pretty often. I find it interesting to keep in touch with the pulse of the blogosphere and its readers (assuming that the bloggers know what their readers really want). I continue to sit slack-jawed at the utter waste of […]

I’m sure you had the one nostalgic relative (mother, father, grandfather, etc…) who would always talk about the way things used to be. “In my days, the subway cost a nickel.”

1. You’re brain-dead.
2. You classify yourself as a non-geek and/or spendthrift.
3. You don’t enjoy bargains.
4. You have no sense of humour (with a u for obvious reasons).
5. Your use of the Internet has been limited to five minutes a week under […]
