How do you think small businesses could use social media to help grow their business?
Never? Well, it depends on the business.
IF there's a nice coffee shop that has open mike nights or some cool business that I really like and they have an opt in sort of thing that's my choice to join, then they can use it. If they create something and don't bother people with it, thats fine to. But I'm not very crazy on having someone link to something of mine in an attempt to see if I'll go for it. This is my time, these are my accounts, leave me the hell alone. Or I'll put shaving cream on your storefront :)
What is one thing you MUST do before you go to bed at night?
check email, chat with various peoples (you know who you are!), brush teeth, listen to a few tracks, browse and get tired.
What fictional character do you relate to most and why?
I don't know. I like a lot of fictional characters. Mostly from TV and movies but I can't think of any off the top of my head I relate to.
Do you support the gas tax holiday being pushed by Clinton and McCain?
A holiday? One day/period of time out of all the rest where we're not sodomized by high gas prices / taxes? I have better idea. A permanent break from it. How many things do we really need to be fucking taxed on? Start kicking the search for alternate fuels and modern public transportation. Whether it's expensive or dirt cheap, fossil fuels aren't/won't be a solution for us much longer.
This weekend, I had seen more deer than I have seen in the last 10 years.
They were really active on one drive to go out to eat and back. I'm happy I decided to take it really slow and keep on the look out for them. I let them do their thing and run here or there and I spoke out to one that wasn't too car from the window. It seemed curious. Every time I see this, I'm bothered that people eagerly hunt them. :-p
What was your first car?
It depends. I bought a 81 Chevy Malibu I drove once.
It wasn't until lately that I've begun to enjoy driving. That I got over my road worries. I was in a few accidents while a passenger in other people's cars and after that I just didn't feel an urge to drive. The 81 Malibu wouldn't have lasted long anyways.
Last year I got my license and I drive a 2000 Nissan Altima. It's a great car and I've been careful with it.
I had a conversation with this guy. He said "don't eat me!" Actually, he was too busy chasing some sheturkey.

Judge: Big webcasters owe songwriters millions in royalties
By Nate Anderson | Published: May 01, 2008 - 12:39PM CT
A federal judge has just set the rate to be paid for a blanket music license by Yahoo, AOL, and RealNetworks. The three companies could owe songwriters as much as $100 million over seven years as payment for streaming their songs on the web. As the Rolling Stones once noted, "You can't always get what you want," but the songwriters seem to done have all right for themselves this time around.
Take care of any music you have on your account. It's only a matter of time until ASCAP comes looking here. I will as soon as I get a chance this weekend.
Was nice while it lasted, wasn't it?
What are you most looking forward to this weekend?
Getting up to camp and figuring out what we need to do. Come home? Or sped a day there to get other things done.
