p90x review
Well i was originally going to post a standard negaview about p90x. The honest to god truth however, is that it works. Here’s the thing though. It only works if YOU work. What do i mean by that?

In the united states we have a current epidemic going on. Not a disease, or crime, or even illiteracy epidemic. Dog ownership. It seems everywhere i look i see more and more dogs. Even worse i see more and more dog shit and dogs off their leashes. Don’t get me wrong i love the little furry critters as much as the next guy. However, I find this rash of ownership rather odd. What i do find troubling is that dog owners seem to think it’s ok to not pick up after their dog or keep them off their leash in ever increasing numbers.
Obviously something has been going wrong with our nation for quite some time now. We’ve gone from the top position in nearly every category to middle of the pack. Things such as health care and education in the United States have steadily declined. Why? How did we, the lone remaining super power in the world, become such a mediocre nation in so many ways?
Rather than write a console review of the Nintendo Wii i think i’d rather just talk about it’s main defining features. The motion controller. In a word, it sucks. What it really needs is 1:1 control, so whatever you do with the controller happens on screen exactly. Instead what you have is an accelerometer based pointing device. What this lends itself to is incredibly imprecise control of games.
Ahhh Apple Computers, they were riding high in the 80s, refused to die in the 90s, then resurfaced in the 2000s with a hip new image, and a product line centered around MP3 players. Ever since the release of the venerable ipod Apple has been consistently gaining in computer market share. My own distaste for their Macintosh line has waned quite a bit since the release of OSX which is a very good operating system. However, recently i’ve noticed something quite troubling about the plucky little computer company from Cuppertino.
All white juries need to go away. Especially when they result in the acquittal of murderers. In case you don’t know what i’m talking about a 25 year old Mexican illegal immigrant (Luis Ramierz) was killed after a fight with 3 white teenagers in the mining town of shenandoah, Pennsylvania. Reports say the teenagers baited Ramirez into the fight with racial slurs. His death was confirmed to be caused by blunt force trama to the head. Specifically a kick to the head by 16 year old Brandon Piekarski. They were just found innocent of murder and even aggravated assault. However still guilty of simple assault. The jury? 6 white males and 6 white females in a small, racist mining town.
A review site with a slightly negative bent. In other words, we love to hate.
