Piracy and Me
Would you steal a car!? If it was as easy as downloading a movie, yeah.
There is a big difference between piracy and stealing. The biggest problem with piracy is how easy it is to do it. There is also relatively low risk of getting caught due to the high number of individuals who do it. Also, there is isolation when you commit this “crime”. The RIAA might find out that someone from your house downloaded an illegal song, but they cannot definitely find out who. This is a big legal black hole, especially in most western countries where civil liberties are kind of a big deal (America may have gone to far west that it is now hitting Soviet Russia).
The big difference which makes it easier for people like the RIAA to sue you is that in American civil court you just need to found likely to have committed the act. This is opposite American criminal court where you have to be found guilty beyond reasonable doubt.
In the end it is a bit absurd that making a copy of something has such high legal ramifications. Someone stole my CD player from inside my car a few years ago. F them, now I don’t have a CD player. If they just stole this paragraph, I still have the paragraph.

The Only 9 Ways to Save Money on Textbooks
I just bought my school books for the semester and only paid $149 on all my books–that’s four textbooks and six novels! Here is how I did it:

Just by typing in amazon.com into your Firefox window (you don’t use Internet Explorer, right?), you are saving about $30 per book. Click to continue reading…

Start with the easy first week and see if it is for you:
The Starvation Diet
This one is one of my favorites. All my anorexic friends love it too. It is where you eat nothing for a period of seven days. No don’t stop during the seventh day thinking you are God. Those are just the hallucinations talking. You are guaranteed to lose at least your desire to live. Not recommended for people who are consistently depressed.
The Vegan Diet
Similar to the above, you eat practically nothing. The catch with this one is that it lasts a lot longer than seven days. But, if you could look like Avril Lavinge, Natalie Portman, Joaquin Phoenix, Eva Mendes, and Click to continue reading…
Friday Funnies: Sexy Letters
A husband and wife decided they needed to use “code” to indicate that they wanted to have sex without letting their children in on it.
They decided on the word Typewriter.
One day the husband told his five-year-old daughter, “Go tell your mommy that daddy needs to type a letter.”
The child told her mother what her dad said, and her mom responded, “Tell your daddy that he can’t type a letter right now cause there is a red ribbon in the typewriter.” The child went back to tell her father what mommy said.
A few days later the mom told the daughter, “Tell daddy that he can type that letter now.”
The child told her father, returned to her mother and announced, “Daddy said never mind with the typewriter, he already wrote the letter by hand.”
