Good article about why how the Clinton campaign has practically no chance in winning and the idea that it’s still “a close race” is way off. Drop out already Clinton, seriously.

Dear Lazyweb...
My computer speakers died and I want a new sound system for my room. Please design one for me. Here’s the criteria:
It must have at least 3 inputs: my computer (which has optical and 1/8” stereo outs, my record player (which has RCA stereo outs), and my PS2 (also RCA stereo outs).
It must sound awesome.
It must cost less than $1000. Bonus if less than $500.
Ready? Go.

The Vatican has deemed “becoming obscenely wealthy” a mortal sin? That’s rich.
8) Blind faith. In anything.
8) Gotcha, fuckers.
Funny how their religion keeps changing over the years. It’s like they realize that things evolve over time…..

Random Thought
I’m in my last year of school, ever, and only now have I found out that I actually much prefer unruled/unlined notebooks. My writing has always been messy, but I find it’s actually cleaner when I don’t have to worry about staying inside the lines.
If I would have known this years ago, what a difference it could have made. (Yeah, probably not much.)

May I remind you that Ohio also picked Bush, and oh what a president he turned out to be.
