Futurama to Return.

Futurama is going to be making a Family Guy-esk return to television.... Which has been a long time coming, in my opinion. This is such a good show, I can't believe it took so long to come back. I am so happy about this news.

Counting Change.

So over the past month I started working in the store as a cashier at my job at a gas station-call it a promotion from full surve-but I have realized a few things. The main thing I realized is that pennies have no monetary value. If you pump $19.97 or $20.03 worth of gas either way you are going to hand me a $20, and neither of us are going to ask for change.
So my suggestion? Drop the penny, and the nickel and dime while you're at it... but at least the penny. Rounding to the nearest $.05 wont make a difference, if $.02 is down and $.03 is up then I think we will have a lot less change weighing our pockets down. Personally I wouldnt mind going to just quarters [and in my country loonies and toonies ($1 and $2)]. Rounding up and down at $.12 and $.13 it will all even out in the end. Pennies nickels and dimes used to do a lot when a chocolate bar was $.10, but when it comes to $1.37 with tax i wouldn't mind just going to the nearest quarter, i usually just put the small change aside anyways.

Bite the Bullet.

As we progress in this world it has become clear that there are two sides, the DRM people, and the anti-DRM people... unfortunately the drm people are the people making the products I use all the time, and the anti-DRM people are the consumers like myself. This means that soon enough everything will include DRM, so we are all going to have to bite the bullet and find ways around it.
