common sense!
It seems kind of clear to me that the bubble which is popping is the disconnect between the rich and the poor. Too many people have completely fake jobs! And too many people are paid way, way too well to do those fake jobs.Here's some numbers to back it up:Banking salaries predict DepressionWhich is really pretty satisfying to see. I think our economy will be fine, if we pay off some debts, and the money for those debts comes from the top of the economic spectrum.

Hey internet!So the good news is that we've got some stable servers running on pearachute.net; now comes what always seems like the hard part.We need some users, y'all! First one's free!! :)We've got IRC running on port 6668.
We've got Riftshadow running on port 9998 !
We've got Zim running on port 9999 !!( Riftshadow and Zim, for the uninitiated, are MUDs, which is like a chat game.)I'm looking for people willing to step up and help me keep some things running. The reward? You get a cut of any $ that comes in, and you get to be an imm on a mud. So if you're interested in being the lead imm on Riftshadow or Zim, you should probably at least understand how to shell into a box, and read area files, and compile the code you're trying to hack on. :) You can run the mud however you'd like, and have as many people on your imm staff as you'd like. The only rules are that you be a subdomain of pearachute.net, keep the code in a public repo (it's in google at the moment), and most importantly:You must allow bots! This shit is basically first come, first serve; I'll be setting up a new box this week, and you'll get an account on it. Anyone who's interested, write to imms [at] nolimyn.com and i'll get in touch. (Or drop by IRC)Also, mudders - feel free to give them a spin, and try to catch Waldo. ;pCheers,Japherwocky

So, the tone of the blog got a little negative during the election, and on one level I feel a little ashamed for that. The better man won, and now let's get on with things.Israel, guys.. we give them an awful lot of $, and they spend an awful lot of that $ on bullets and bombs.Buy a peaceshirt.
hey, I am actually alive!if you can work IRC, hang out in #riftshadow on pearachute.net:6668
