<p>Okay boys, a  word of warning. No matter how curious you become on weekends while simultaneously fixing your car (or whatever you use <a href="http://www.lakewoodconferences.com/direct/dbimage/50306567/Washers.jpg" target="_blank">washers</a> for) and cooking <a href="http://i.usatoday.net/news/_photos/2007/09/03/brat-topper.jpg" target="_blank">brat wurst</a>, DO NOT, I REPEAT, DO NOT TRY IT! You&#8217;ll only end up like this<a href="http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,361382,00.html" target="_blank"> poor guy. </a>But lets think for a moment. It may seems somewhat logical, given that the companion to washers are nuts. However, by doing this &#8220;experiment&#8221;, you open <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">yourself</span>  &#8220;your brat wurst&#8221; up to <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">speculation</span> smirks from women wondering just what size washer you so stupidly got stuck on your brat wurst.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s hoping if you get caught with your pants down, and washer on that its a JUMBO! <img src='http://www.y2kers.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

<p>In case you didn&#8217;t know, you only have a month to live.  Scheduled for June 2008 first test, the <a href="http://">CERN</a> &#8211; Large Hadron Collider will be switched on.  You understand that the purpose of this particle accelerator is to figure out how our universe was made, and hopefully create miniature black holes&#8230;  Here&#8217;s a quick fact, we have many pictures from space showing black holes doing exactly what we think they do, and that is Swallowing entire galaxies.  So, when we switch this puppy on next month, create a blackhole, it in turns consumes the earth and surrounding galaxy, what will you be thinking about?</p>
<p><span id="more-451"></span></p>
<p>I&#8217;ll probably be thinking about the irony of how we came to be&#8230; These little ameba particles<a href="http://www.y2kers.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/ameba.gif"><img class="size-medium wp-image-456" title="ameba" src="http://www.y2kers.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/ameba-176x300.gif" alt="" width="76" height="100" /></a></p>
<p>that finally grow and in turn create great minds such as the staff here at Y2Kers.  The same great minds that create a 17 mile collider that speeds protons as fast as they can go only to crash into each other.  I mean really, it sucks soo bad for a scientist, they will have spent Billions and Billions of dollars and thousands and thousand of man hours to build this thing, turn it on, throw the switch, have particles race around this 17 mile collider</p>
<p><a href="http://www.y2kers.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/cern.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-457" title="cern" src="http://www.y2kers.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/cern-300x213.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="213" /></a></p>
<p>and then&#8230;&#8230;.   BOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!</p>
<p>WTF JUST HAPPENED???  Oh wait, we won&#8217;t know for another TWO YEARS after we analyze the data&#8230;  Sorry super smart nerds, but that just plain sucks&#8230;</p>
<p>If you do create a Black hole,I&#8217;d tell you one view I would like to have for the show..</p>

<p style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://direct2dell.com/one2one/archive/2008/05/06/Progress-on-the-Packaging-Front.aspx" target="_blank">Well Fat Cat Dell</a> responded to the Post about the Wasteful Shipping practices done by what appears to be their third party Vendors&#8230;  So, My thoughts&#8230;   <em><span style="text-decoration: underline;">AWESOME JOB <a href="http://direct2dell.com/one2one/archive/2008/05/06/Progress-on-the-Packaging-Front.aspx">DELL</a></span></em>,!!! say&#8230;WHAT!!!   now WAIT WAIT WAIT right there&#8230;  I am NO DELL FANBOY OK, I use APPLe and have been for a while now&#8230;   But&#8230;. I am a PRO-CUSTOMER SERVICE Man, and WiLL Always be for quite some time&#8230;  So Please, Please keep reading on&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><span id="more-347"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<p style="text-align: left;">These <a href="http://direct2dell.com/one2one/archive/2008/05/06/Progress-on-the-Packaging-Front.aspx">big Companies</a> are catching on fast&#8230;.  I mean real fast&#8230;  They see what can happen if a Digg Effect gets ahold of any bad PR thats lurking around&#8230;   These damn interwebs are making News travel extremely fast, and a bad taste in the mouth is harder to wash out then a Simple response in acknowledging a fault or rectifying a Fault&#8230;   In this case&#8230;  Dell knows that the shipping isn&#8217;t as Green as they planned&#8230;  Of course this isn&#8217;t their intention and they set standards that separate vendors must adhere to.  When they don&#8217;t, the hammer must be thrown down on them&#8230;  WAIT, THESE ARE THE LITTLE GUYS!!!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.y2kers.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/crw_48756-cc-pt.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-349 aligncenter" title="crw_48756-cc-pt" src="http://www.y2kers.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/crw_48756-cc-pt-300x199.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="199" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Our rants, such as the <a href="http://consumerist.com/381864/dell-still-ships-tiny-items-in-massive-boxes">Consumerist</a>, <a href="http://gizmodo.com/382240/dells-wasteful-shipping-habits-take-a-steamy-dump-on-the-environment">Gizmodo</a>, and of course <a href="http://www.y2kers.com/2008/04/my-earth-day-thoughts-screw-you-dell/">us</a>, are going to be the Cause of smaller shipping companies getting their biggest shipping contracts pulled.  What the Hell can they do?  OWN UP, apologize, and pull off something QUICK.. ANYTHING, go YouTube your company using same size Box Holding up a Planted Tree or 10.. ANYTHING&#8230;  I am assuming you don&#8217;t have much time and the Bad PR you have caused these big Companies aren&#8217;t worth a few guidelines you didn&#8217;t Follow.  SHOW <a href="http://www.digg.com">DIGGERS</a>, SHOW <a href="http://www.gizmodo.com">GIZMODANS</a>, SHOW <a href="http://www.y2kers.com">Y2KERS</a> You KNOW you <a href="http://direct2dell.com/one2one/archive/2008/05/06/Progress-on-the-Packaging-Front.aspx">screwed up</a> and throw a response showing that You are Changing&#8230;..</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<p style="text-align: left;">Final Thoughts&#8230;  Reason most <a href="http://www.digg.com">Diggers</a> and Bloggers Complain is we likely figure that companies wont change, but most WANT and WILL POST about a company that Listens to its Customers rather than companies that do nothing&#8230;.  People WANT to Care,!!&#8230;. mostly&#8230;&#8230;  SHOW US YOUR LISTENING, thats usually all it takes&#8230;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.y2kers.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/nuclear_blast.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-227 aligncenter" title="nuclear_blast" src="http://www.y2kers.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/nuclear_blast-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">It&#8217;s true, we consume a lot of freaking energy. I just don&#8217;t understand how we have an energy crisis, we have the power</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span id="more-226"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.y2kers.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/nuclear-power-tower1.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-228" title="nuclear-power-tower1" src="http://www.y2kers.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/nuclear-power-tower1-225x300.jpg" alt="" width="225" height="300" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Couple months ago I read about some Nuclear Power plants in America, one in particular, 3 mile island.  Nuclear is the cleanest power and cost next to Nothing!!!  If it was up to me we would be building a lot more of them, like one in every state, 10 in Texas!!!</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">These damn Hippy ass Californians and the complaining about nuclear power and environmental issues are soo retardedly miss guided.  The nuclear waste IS an issue, so what do we do? Build a gigantic storage facility in the Nevada Desert where it will be kept way high of ANY water reserves and dry as hell and stored properly in it&#8217;s facility.  I matter fact, the facility cost multiple Billions of dollars&#8230;  Thats like Multiple new Dallas Cowboys Stadiums.  Well, after all that spending and building to keep all the nuclear waste safe and secure, not an oz of nuclear waste has ever been sent there, since built 15 years ago.  Why?  People are stupid and scared, and stupid scared people pay congressman, and they complain.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">So where is the waste?</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://www.y2kers.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/waste_packaging_interior.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-229" title="waste_packaging_interior" src="http://www.y2kers.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/waste_packaging_interior-294x300.jpg" alt="" width="294" height="300" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Temporary Holding facilities right next to major water sanitation plants, probably not more than a few miles from you NYC readers&#8230;  Just sitting there, not secure, accumulating.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Oh and don&#8217;t get me started in comments about Chernobyl or some other nuclear meltdowns that have happened, that does not even come close to how bad these coal power plants are.  Coal plants release enough toxins in the air killing 24000 people a year, that a Chernobyl accident every 11 hours.  EVERY 11 HOURS!!!</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">So, like I said, I would love to bring my power cost down.  Nuclear is how to do it, shit, it should be More expensive since its soo clean, but its NOT, its Ridiculously Cheaper!!!</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Oh, and Europe is full of it too, only France uses Nuclear, the other countries want to be nuclear free. Except all those countries import their energy from France, who may i add, exports 80% of its electricty&#8230;  ALSO&#8230;.. France has the cleanest air of any euro country..</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Ok, Lets discuss&#8230;</p>

<p>I was in Walgreens about 15 minutes ago, I went to get in line to check out.  First thing I notice is that one line has about 6 people, the other only one.  Seeing how these lines were following the &#8220;form a single line for each checkout&#8221; rule, I naturally went to the line that had one person.</p>
<p>Woman #1 from long line (Sounds about 40-50): There is just one line</p>
<p>Woman #2 from long line: It says one line for each register</p>
<p>Woman #1: I can&#8217;t read.</p>
<p>I never looked back, finished my transaction and got out of there as soon as possible.  The more someone doesn&#8217;t know how to read the higher the chances are that they know how to use a gun. </p>
