Today as I was giving my pastors a lift to the airport, and on the drive out I saw the following 2 bumper stickers on the same car. The first was “Hate is not a family value” the second was a kerry sticker. The funny part is that the majority of the kerry base is[…]
The traffic has died down a bit, but I still see that the traffic is higher then usual. I wonder how many are just stragglers, how many are return visits because they like it, and how many are returning trolls. Over the last few days I been getting trolls in the responses, which I have[…]
I have put the video back up on line, I hope that the traffic from slashdot has died down some. I am not going to put a link right to the file here, just to keep things light. But it should still be on the front page, if not go to the Technology section to[…]
This election year 1) scares me and 2) saddens me. Why? You may ask. Simple this, the next for years may (if Peroutka or [to a lesser extent] Bush get elected) could help save many many lives of the unborn if a judge needs to be appointed. But if the pro-murder kerry gets in, we[…]

I just did a couple of searches on google today, one was to see how many pages are linked to my site, it returned 68. Before it was only returning 33. And I did a search for just my name Michael P. O’Connor and found that it is the first real hit. So if some[…]
Ok I went into the server logs and looked at where people were coming to my site from. Some were coming in from google, but I would never though my site would show up on some of the searches that are being reported. I followed back to these searches and 2 of them were valid[…]

I think Nintendo is make a mistake with the “game key cards” the new digital only game cards that Nintendo is doing. With the situation where more 3rd parties are doing those instead of a real game card. I will not buy a game that not fully on the disc or on the cart, which[…]
