Err... I should probably also put some of my own work into this post rather than just linking to pictures and shit.

HOW TO: Be Ambitious

Step 1: Examine your activities and list the verb words.
Step 2: Everyone is a "<verb>-er" of some kind, they have some particular activity they take part in to be described by it. Pick the verb X from your list that would make you happiest as it's X-er. (Bake becomes Baker, Bike becomes Biker, Design becomes Designer, Bullshit becomes Bullshitter, etc.)
Step 3: If the resulting label does not already apply to you, increase the frequency and consistency with which you do the related activity. Eventually the label will apply.
Step 4: Take on lots of interesting and difficult tasks within that activity. Get better at that activity.
Step 5: Pursue any opportunities to be in a better position to perform your chosen activity or to increase the satisfaction you may derive.
Step 6: Actually just keep doing steps 4 and 5. The goal is to be the best "<verb>er" that no one ever was.

GO NOW AND QUEST FOR GLORY. KICK LOGIC OUT AND DO THE IMPOSSIBLE.
BE A HERO. PUNCH THE SUN IN THE FACE.

You know what's pretty scary?

When you're exploring on some random rooftop and a couple of your friends go scout ahead while you're wrapping up your grappling hook, and then you hear from not too far away the "WEEEOOEEEOOEEEOOEEOOEEEOOOEEOO" sound that means GTFO time and your friend's girlfriend who decided she didn't want to climb some weird random ladder is like "what's that noise?" and I'm like "ITS THE ALARM. I DON'T KNOW ABOUT YOU BUT IMMA PEACE" and then I got out of there.

This is no longer a blog

This is your livelihood; not in the sense that it earns you your wages but in the sense that if you don't check in every so often you will wither away and become a puddle. That's right, my very existence is your addiction. Just like you need air, water, and food, you need my hilarious and insightful commentary.

To give you this, I'm about to sum up all of the news items the media have been blabbering about, because they can't get to the point:

• Egypt: Maybe under new management, but the customer service still sucks!
• Wisconsin: If they were a cellular provider, they'd actually be worse than AT&T.
• Charlie Sheen: Not much to say but "Sorry, Charlie... I'm pretty sure my Zeus DNA beat's your Adonis."

Now that's out of the way, it's time to point out things that actually matter:

• Entry level keytars are around $300. The Rock Band 3 keytar is $60, but also has much of the same functionality as a "real" keytar. Harmonix isn't just toying with the rules of economics, they've become the invisible hand! 
• K-V Pharmaceutical Co. has gotten exclusive rights to sell the same birth-delaying drug pharmacies have been mixing up in-house for $20; but K-V plans to make mothers pay out the nose to keep their babies from being premature. $1500 per dose is quite a large increase from $20. That's more than my brother's college tuition. http://www.latimes.com/health/boostershots/la-heb-premature-drug-03092011,0,4847507.story 
• More patent trolling: LG and Sony are squabbling about patents on trivial features of their products, and now there's a 10-day import ban on PS3's into the European Union. Now seems like a good time to get into the smuggling business.  http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-1260737
• I'm in your house, watching you read this. That also matters, even though its not news.
