"... fa real B?"


Photobucket
A Palm Beach County woman told police she crashed her car into her boyfriend's truck to prevent him from driving drunk.
IF THAT WASN'T STUPID ENOUGH, she did this while her two children, ages 7 and ONE, were "safely" strapped in the backseat... She found him sitting in his truck in a Winn-Dixie (HAHAHAHA!!) parking lot. That's when authorities say Alvarez pulled up to the truck and rammed it. Alvarez was charged with aggravated battery and two counts of child abuse.

Swine Flu Vs. the flu...
Photobucket
All this "swine-flu" chaos has been bugging me. After finding out, "What IS the Swine Flu?", I still had questions that needed to be answered. There had been no confirmed deaths in the United States related to swine flu as of Tuesday afternoon. But another virus had killed thousands of people since January and is expected to keep killing hundreds of people every week for the rest of the year. People are nervous about swine flu, but the regular flu kills 36,000 people a year in the United States. Soooo, why are schools closing down, and hand sanitizer selling out?! It didn't take very much research to realize, the media is blowing this whole thing wa---y out of proportion.
An outbreak of swine flu that is suspected in more than 150 deaths in Mexico and has sickened dozens of people in the United States and elsewhere has grabbed the attention of the public and of medical officials worried the strain will continue to mutate and spread. Experts are nervous that, as a new strain, the swine flu will be harder to stop because there aren't any vaccines to fight it. But even if there are swine-flu deaths outside Mexico (and medical experts say there very well may be) the virus would have a long way to go to match the roughly 36,000 deaths that seasonal influenza causes in the United States each year.
So Chi----ll!! You're more likely to die from getting your Flu shot, than you are from the Swine-flu. (That is a fact.)

CASSIE NAKED!!!

"It seems that someone has hacked into my computer...that's real foul and evil... Now stop acting like you haven't seen a titty before." THAT'S ALL YOU HAVE TO SAY ABOUT IT CASSIE?! Either she knows how happy this just made sooo many young men (sheeit, old men too) of America, or something else is going on here. She just shaved her head, and now she has her tittys out... Be FaReal.

... fa real FaReal??


A South Philly native (James Joseph Cialella Jr., 29) is being charged with attempted murder, aggravated assault, and weapons violations after shooting a man (WHO WAS WITH HIS SON!) in the movies on Christmas Day.
According to the police, James was upset by them talking during the movie. He apparently tried to quiet the family (who were sitting in front of him) by the old "shhh" method followed by telling them to be quiet. When that didn’t work, he reverted to throwing popcorn at the son! At that time the father got up to protect them, and that's when the victim was shot once in the arm. After shooting the man, James sat back down to finish watching the movie...? Philly ain't no joke!


Quick run down of who these silly officials are: Trade group that represents the U.S. recording industry. They oppose unauthorized file sharing of its music. THAT'S RIGHT... they SUE you for $750 PER SONG you illegally share (knowingly or unintentionally). But at the beginning of this new year, they kicked off their new policy: instead of suing people who cant even afford a cd, they will now contact your internet company, and have your internet suspended. The RIAA has recently sued a defenseless 19-year-old girl, who is CHRONICALLY ILL, for $8000! She had TEN songs. TEN SONGS!!?
I'M SORRY ARTISTS. ALL I WAS TRYING TO DO WAS PROMOTE YOUR MUSIC. NOT STEEEAL FROM YOU. Damn.
They should be paying ME! I market their music to a group of individuals I believe would enjoy it. What else do you want!

FYI: Why are they necessitating an update to digital cable??

To convert analog versions of channels to digital. Each analog channel takes up 38mbs of bandwidth. [Grasp This: CSPAN takes up more bandwidth than you have available to you for internet services.]
For Basic Cable subscribers that get about 40 analog channels. Those households are consuming 40 x 38.6mbs or 1.54 Gbs. I was blown away when I found out that's more bandwidth than most neighborhoods consume online, by a lot.
Thats also the equivalent of 500 standard def digital channels. If you convert that to revenue per bit for cable companies, the basic cable customers are getting the best deal! The standard def digital version of the same channel takes up less than 3mbs. The typical HD version takes up about 8mbs or less. So, every time a channel is converted from analog to digital a MINIMUM of 28mbs is freed up. The bandwidth that is freed up can be used for: more internet bandwidth, to more HD channels, more video on demand... More bandwidth means more digital everything. The cable companies have been hesitant to convert them only because of the potential FCC backlash. The FCC made this an issue because it does reduce the number of channels available to those who connect their cable to older televisions sets, or directly to their analog TVs.
[Side Note: Some people don’t realize that analog could send a better-looking picture to your television set, but with an analog signal, you adopt noise. Not the type of noise that you can hear. This noise is simply a term used to describe a disturbance that interferes with the normal operation of a device or system. So the more you crank up this analog signal, the more noise you will get.]

So which is more important, protecting analog TV connectivity, or having more bandwidth available?

Obviously I’m pro-digital! Lets free up this bandwidth, because I think broadband should be a priority in this country. It not only equates to faster internet service, but it will open up many new applications that can significantly impact our society. All of which are far more important than making sure that an old analog TV can receive a few more basic cable tv channels. Otherwise, what is next, stopping Youtube and other video sites from increasing the bit rate of videos because those with dialup will be forced to upgrade?

Are You FaREAL?!

GPS Lingerie

STRANGE NEWS

GPS Lingerie:
Insecurity may have just hit a record High. Oh, so your man just happens to do something "sweet" and brings you an unexpected gift. "ooooo... lingerie!" EHHHH! WRONG. It could possibly be a fucking tracking device. Wow! If you're a guy who feels like you have to track your chick... just quit her. Because that can't be healthy.
The lingerie line is called "Find Me If You Can", and the designer Lucia Loria claims that it is something like a safety device for a night on the town that may get waaay out of control. Mmmmm... OoK. But, if you thought that was enough stupidity, here's the kicker; this shit costs anywhere from $800 - $1000. I don't care which tax bracket you're in... if you're spending that kind of bread on your undergarments, Obama SHOULD take a FAT percentage of your income and give it to the less fortunate.

Rapest Falls Asleep:
A man and his friend abducted a woman and raped her. Yes, INCREDIBLY SAD & PATHETIC. But it gets worse. Afterward one of them asks the woman to drive herself home while he's in the passenger seat (*you may be wondering.... Whyyy? Because, he was too drunk to drive.......... no.... I'm not kidding.) Now... this worthless low life is drunk, has had sex, and is riding shotgun while the victim drives, and he FALLS ASLEEP!
I thank God this woman had commonsense, because she looked over at the snoring p.o.s. and decided, "Fuck it... I'm going to drop you off at the jail house." So this sleepy senseLESS clown wakes up in front of a police station with cops peering through the window waiting for him.
And that was all she wrote for his dumbass.

Student Brings Fake Gun To Class:
If you would like to know a quick way to ruin the rest of your life, please get your pens and pads out kid-o's, and take notes from Ryan Labenz. An art major at the University of Nebraska, shows a silver fake gun outside of his classroom. To increase his Genius... this cool kid begins to yell "GET DOWN! EVERYBODY GET DOWN!!" So people did what people do when a terrorist is in their presence... they ran hysterically and jumped out of classroom windows! What college student owns a toy gun?! AND... is Bored enough to Bring It To SCHOOL. Was it "Friday Show & Tell"?! Grow up Peter Pan.
