New quotes have been added to the random quotes box over on the right. I’ve included them here for those keeping score at home.

“Adults are just obsolete children and the hell with them.”
“Don’t cry because it’s over. Smile because it happened.”
“Sometimes the questions are complicated and the answers are simple.”

I have a 7 gmail accounts. A hotmail account. A Yahoo! mail account. A work email account. I’m nearly always signed on to MSN Messenger. I have an XBox live account. Google Chat, Google Voice, Skype. Facebook and Twitter. Two blogs and a mobile phone.

This guy built his own Segway for what he says was about half the cost. My favorite line from his description:

There is no redundancy or backup system. It is not even robustly made. Loose wires literally dangle out the bottom. In the fairly likely event of the software crashing, a wire coming loose, a component failing, or the batteries running low, the wheels will stop and the entire kinetic energy of the system will be used to accelerate my head toward the ground.

From the comments of a story on the woman charged with videotaping four minutes of the Twilight movie:

She was charged with a felony. By the government. And arrested.

Unregulated markets are not good either. But this is not a case of that. This is a case of poor regulation.

Furthermore, a free market is a theoretical thought experiment implying equal ability and knowledge among participants and no force or fraud. It is a thought experiment alone and an unregulated market would immediately devolve away from it. They are, in fact, entirely mutually exclusive.

In short, learn more.
