Contract GAH...

OK, well, it was announced today (2 PM local), that we, SAIC, did NOT win the OWS contract I am on. Hmmm, well, this presents a lot of weird scenarios to say the least... Do stay in touch for the future will bring many new twists and turns, for sure...

IGXE

OK, so I have been playing this game lately - EVE Online - and it's a lot of fun! So, I contacted a company (IGXE) to deliver me some in game resources. I paid a fairly large amount of money and it was never delivered. All I received in emails was excuses why they didn't have what I requested (and their web site claimed they had). You would think that me spending a fair amount of cash for services would rate high above other who might only be spending nickels and dimes... Ha... Well, anyways, they delivered approximately 15% of my order and kept telling me that the rest was "on it's way", well, there are other servicers out there who offer similar servises for similar prices, I will go theri route from now on and suggest you do the same. Avoid IGXE at all costs, they are untrustworthy at this point and I wouldn't use them if I didn't have to. Be forewarned...

Fitting, I guess...

So this is where we are...

Kinda sad...

But, it's NOT like I never though it would happen...

Bailout

Wow, seems like a lot has happened recently! First, I'd like to say that I think this bailout is bullshit! I don't see why, we, the taxpayers and normal people in our country need to bail out these corporations that dug themselves into a bad spot. My thoughts are, it would be better to let them fail and bail out the people instead. I mean, for real, the WaMu CEO gets 18 mil for 3 weeks work, can someone explain this to me? There are things I am reading that is is a planned collapse of our economy, for the sake of establishing a couple things: namely the "AMERO" as a new unit of currency twixt Canada, Mexico, and US, as well as a plan to have the next cabinet fail in office. To me this is all scary stuff. I personally know a few people that have lost everything they had in 401 recently and it really makes me want to take everything I have out (even though my company isn't in jeopordy of bankrupcy). I just don't trust anyone right now. Give me your thoughts on all of this... Why should we bail out these huge corporations? I mean, if I went into debt, they would slap me so hard it wouldn't be funny, but a giant corporation goes under and the government offers to bail them out? I don't get it...
