And yet again the internet is behaving in a less than optimal manner. In fact, one would say it's not behaving at all, but instead lying (laying?) lifeless in a gutter. Regardless, it's driving me up the wall. I could live with no TV, no phone, no car, and no AC. But no internet? That's just not right.
Amazon is back at it again with their crazy patents. This time patenting online reviews of products. Is there no end to the insanity?
There was a show about Amarillo on the other night, though not for a good heartwarming reason. Instead it was about the death of Brian Deneke, a "punk" kid who was run over by a "jock" football player in a scene pretty much ripped right out of West Side Story. I had forgotten about it until I saw the show, and while I didn't know either of the kids involved, I was a Freshman in the same high school as Brian used to go to. The real tradegy of the whole story is that the murderer got only 10 years probation for the senseless killing, because the victim was demonized because he didn't fit the tight conservative mold that West Texas wants.
