I need to get into the stock market

Yeah, the news is two days old, but I’m posting it anyway. Friday Google’s shares rose 20%. In one day. That means that for every dollar you have invested in them, you got $.20 for free. Doesn’t sound like much, but imagine you had 300 shares. Each share went up $89.87. Thats $2696.10 profit from the markets open to close. Granted, in order to get 300 shares you would have had to invest $134,862 by the closing bell on Thursday. Thats a lot of money to have invested in one company, but with a one day payoff of nearly 3k, it seems like it might be worth it.

Now, for dealing with all of that financial BS, enjoy.

Here you are, the latest in a long mud slinging campaign:

Mac disgusts me. Their ad campaign is based solely on slander. I’m getting tired of commercials like these. After watching this did I learn anything about a Mac? Did they mention new features that are better than Windows? Did they says that I could finally play games on my Mac without having to resort to some 3rd rate hack program? Speaking of which, where is my Mac emulator for Windows? Oh, thats right, I can do everything a Mac can do, but better, OUT OF THE BOX!
These ads remind me of the commercials that Pepsi used to run:

That is why I try to avoid Pepsi products whenever possible. Maybe I am the only one who thinks this way, I hope not.
