Gas Prices

31 Aug 2005

Gas prices just hit $2.99 here in Augusta, Georgia, and they’re not showing any signs of slowing up.

24 Aug 2005

I’m getting more than a little pissed with myself these days. Every time Google releases a new app, I jump on the bandwagon and install it on my computer just to try it out. Why do I continually subject myself to this kinda crap? Anyway… enough ranting. Google just released GoogleTalk this morning. It’s a…
