Senator to charge $100 electronics fine for common sense

Apparently everyone in New York is an idiot. Senator Karl Kruger is an idiot for proposing a fine for use of electronics. It's obviously a ploy to get his name out. If people want to cross the street and read their blackberries, that to me, is fine. Let them get hit by a bus. That's one less idiot in the world.

The people who are freaking out about this ban are idiots too. To quote one person, "If I choose to, I will listen to my iPod when I want to, without some petty government bureaucrat meddling in my affairs." Crazy type-reply-without-knowing-the-facts guy here doesn't realize that this fine is only for those who are actually engaging the device while crossing the street, and only while crossing the street. It doesn't say you can't listen to an iPod.

The people who are dead because of this are idiots for dying so closely together that someone created a correlation between them.

And finally, I've already talked about this way back in October of last year.

So really, I have to think that Senator Carl Kruger reads my blog.

A little pat on the back

Right Media made Business Week's Tech Companies to watch in 2007 article.

Just a little excerpt:

When Yahoo acquired a 20% stake in Right Media in 2006, the company's potential to rival Google's AdSense service became apparent.

Why is Right Media so great? Read my post about why I work at Right Media.
