It’s the time of year when gas prices are making headlines again. Now they are starting to reach new record highs in America, and these prices are even starting to come close to what Europeans have been paying for gas for years. Those who want to blame Obama for all of America’s problems will be…

This old gem is from back in the days when I was passionate enough about stuff to care enough to write blog posts explaining why OS X is the best OS. I’ve grown up a bit and am now lazy enough that if someone truly believes that their non-OS X operating system is better, then…
