Why?&nbsp; Because it's effing China.&nb...]]></description><guid isPermaLink="True">http://psychx.joeuser.com/article/308110</guid><link>http://psychx.joeuser.com/article/308110</link><pubDate>Tue, 08 Jul 2008 21:18:48 -0400</pubDate><pubDateParsed>2008-07-09T01:18:48</pubDateParsed><title>Read My Lips No New Freedom!</title></item><item><author>psychx</author><comments>http://psychx.joeuser.com/article/29706</comments><description><![CDATA[In a recent political quiz, according to the National Annenberg Election Survey, viewers of The Daily Show with Jon Stewart scored higher than viewers of the Jay Leno and David Letterman late night shows comparatively.&nbsp; Viewers of all three shows did score higher than people that don't watch late-night tv with the statistics stating 49% of Letterman and Leno viewers got a perfect score on the quiz but 60% of Daily Show viewers had a perfect score.&nbsp; Daily show viewers also seem to score...]]></description><guid isPermaLink="True">http://psychx.joeuser.com/article/29706</guid><link>http://psychx.joeuser.com/article/29706</link><pubDate>Tue, 08 Jul 2008 21:18:48 -0400</pubDate><pubDateParsed>2008-07-09T01:18:48</pubDateParsed><title>Jon Stewart 1 Bill O'Reilly 0</title></item><item><author>psychx</author><comments>http://psychx.joeuser.com/article/23993</comments><description><![CDATA[Disclaimer:&nbsp;

One of my co-workers suggested we order her favorite food from a local Chinese place not too far from our office building.&nbsp; She told us that her favorite food was Chinese which she hadn't had in a while.&nbsp; This sparked some furious debate between my colleagues and myself and people brought up some interesting favorite foods.&nbsp; One mentioned Thai food as his favorite on the merit that it's spi...]]></description><guid isPermaLink="True">http://psychx.joeuser.com/article/22965</guid><link>http://psychx.joeuser.com/article/22965</link><pubDate>Tue, 08 Jul 2008 21:18:48 -0400</pubDate><pubDateParsed>2008-07-09T01:18:48</pubDateParsed><title>Shrimp Fried Rice - Favorite Food?</title></item><item><author>psychx</author><comments>http://psychx.joeuser.com/article/22867</comments><description><![CDATA[It's good to have a nice life.&nbsp; A life that reflects our ideals, beliefs, and desires.&nbsp; Some people get to witness this higher plain of life so to speak.&nbsp; This higher plain, for the most part, must be worked for in order to achieve it.&nbsp;

At first glance one can assume that this bill is&nbsp;a positive proposal that will help stop all the pirating that is currently plagueing the movie, software, and music industry.&nbsp; Upo...]]></description><guid isPermaLink="True">http://psychx.joeuser.com/article/22295</guid><link>http://psychx.joeuser.com/article/22295</link><pubDate>Tue, 08 Jul 2008 21:18:48 -0400</pubDate><pubDateParsed>2008-07-09T01:18:48</pubDateParsed><title>We Have to Give a Damn About Copyright</title></item><item><author>psychx</author><comments>http://psychx.joeuser.com/article/19938</comments><description><![CDATA[A few months back I wrote a blog and went off on a rant.&nbsp; It was to showcase my extreme discontent and passive venting,&nbsp;at what I had discovered in the morning.&nbsp; It seems my favorite morning talk show, titled the Howard Stern show, had been taken off the air.&nbsp; Shocked as I was, I was also outraged considering all the enforcing the FCC had been doing at that time.&nbsp; I also&nbsp;knew they had pressured Clear Channel to drop him from the Orlando market, among other cities,&n...]]></description><guid isPermaLink="True">http://psychx.joeuser.com/article/19938</guid><link>http://psychx.joeuser.com/article/19938</link><pubDate>Tue, 08 Jul 2008 21:18:48 -0400</pubDate><pubDateParsed>2008-07-09T01:18:48</pubDateParsed><title>Resolution of Rant: First Amendment Prevails</title></item><item><author>psychx</author><comments>http://psychx.joeuser.com/article/18035</comments><description><![CDATA[On January 14th of this year a friend of mine recommended I visit a site called Joeuser, a site where you can write blogs.&nbsp; I was relatively clueless about what blogs where at the time and only paid attention to the address he gave me.&nbsp; Needless to say my curiosity compelled me to check out the site the very next day.&nbsp; What I found was not expected and I felt much the same way when one randomly finds an answer to a question they had forgotten.&nbsp; I was perplexed at the amount o...]]></description><guid isPermaLink="True">http://psychx.joeuser.com/article/18035</guid><link>http://psychx.joeuser.com/article/18035</link><pubDate>Tue, 08 Jul 2008 21:18:48 -0400</pubDate><pubDateParsed>2008-07-09T01:18:48</pubDateParsed><title>Bloggin - An Afterthought</title></item><item><author>psychx</author><comments>http://psychx.joeuser.com/article/16076</comments><description><![CDATA[A few years back I was at a carnival with my then girlfriend at one of the games which you play to win certain prizes.  Needless to say machismo took over and I emptied my resources on the game.  The game consisted of shooting an air-gun at balloons that were 20 feet away.  After many tries and with much bravado I actually won in a flurry of popped balloons.  I gave my girlfriend the “I told you so” look at which point she pointed at my empty wallet.  Although I wasted more money than I would hu...]]></description><guid isPermaLink="True">http://psychx.joeuser.com/article/16076</guid><link>http://psychx.joeuser.com/article/16076</link><pubDate>Tue, 08 Jul 2008 21:18:48 -0400</pubDate><pubDateParsed>2008-07-09T01:18:48</pubDateParsed><title>Quality Versus Quantity</title></item><item><author>psychx</author><comments>http://psychx.joeuser.com/article/14016</comments><description><![CDATA[The value of a human life is difficult to define, in a more simplistic sense it is priceless.  No one can truly know the potential contribution an individual may or may not provide for themselves and/or humankind.  Without speaking too general, changes can only be made by the individual's will.  <br/>       <br/>          This brings me to my point about justice.  Justice in itself is also very hard to define.  There are different forms of justice; personal justice, moral justice, and societal law.

We all go through pretty much the same stages in life.  We grow up and want to establish ourselves and leave an imprint on this world.  When it comes to our behavior we can all mostly be categorized into groups.  Physically you are part of an ethnic or racial class.  Economically you are poor, middle class, or rich.  Unfortunately these same groups create division in the form of being prejudiced.  The question which I ponder is what if we all kep...]]></description><guid isPermaLink="True">http://psychx.joeuser.com/article/13659</guid><link>http://psychx.joeuser.com/article/13659</link><pubDate>Tue, 08 Jul 2008 21:18:48 -0400</pubDate><pubDateParsed>2008-07-09T01:18:48</pubDateParsed><title>What if we were all the same?</title></item><item><author>psychx</author><comments>http://psychx.joeuser.com/article/13359</comments><description><![CDATA[	I recently read an article that asked a shocking question.  Would I be for a draft or against a draft for the Iraq war. I would prefer not being drafted, but what would every other young American under 26 think?  I know that there hasn't been a draft since Vietnam, how could there considering that tragedy.  But what if in the year 2005 the U.S. government decides they need to draft to stop this war?  Would the masses be against it or rise to the occassion?  That same article which led me to thi...]]></description><guid isPermaLink="True">http://psychx.joeuser.com/article/13359</guid><link>http://psychx.joeuser.com/article/13359</link><pubDate>Tue, 08 Jul 2008 21:18:48 -0400</pubDate><pubDateParsed>2008-07-09T01:18:48</pubDateParsed><title>Reinstate the Draft?</title></item><item><author>psychx</author><comments>http://psychx.joeuser.com/article/13010</comments><description><![CDATA[Maybe I am crazy but I am not one to usually get depressed and/or sad.  I am not impartial to other emotions considering sometimes I am outraged, content, ecstatic, etc etc, but I rarely am down and or in a state of sorrow.  There is one thing that gets me down that I am encouraged to share.  As I woke up this morning at the inhumane time of 6:00 am to come into work, I got up and got ready and followed my usual Sunday morning routine operating like machinery and made it to work right when the s...]]></description><guid isPermaLink="True">http://psychx.joeuser.com/article/13010</guid><link>http://psychx.joeuser.com/article/13010</link><pubDate>Tue, 08 Jul 2008 21:18:48 -0400</pubDate><pubDateParsed>2008-07-09T01:18:48</pubDateParsed><title>Sad</title></item><item><author>psychx</author><comments>http://psychx.joeuser.com/article/12925</comments><description><![CDATA[I was at the movie theater last night, where I went to go watch Kill Bill vol. 2 which unfortunately was sold out at 1:00 am.  Due to the sell out I ended up watching Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind which I might add is a decent movie, but that is besides the point.  I was watching the previews considering I arrived a little too early, and I saw a preview to a movie starring Mandy Moore titled Saved!.  The movie basically was kind of a teen date movie but was about religion and I couldn't ...]]></description><guid isPermaLink="True">http://psychx.joeuser.com/article/12925</guid><link>http://psychx.joeuser.com/article/12925</link><pubDate>Tue, 08 Jul 2008 21:18:48 -0400</pubDate><pubDateParsed>2008-07-09T01:18:48</pubDateParsed><title>Saved!</title></item><item><author>psychx</author><comments>http://psychx.joeuser.com/article/12880</comments><description><![CDATA[In reading and watching all the latest international news it is disconcerting to see that we are still fighting the same war that has raged for centuries.  I speak of this so-called holy war between the "crusaders" and the muslims.  It has been raging for centuries, this struggle of religions.  The Muslim world (extremists that is) now embraces the notion that they are fighting the western world or crusaders for their God..Allah.  The country that they are fighting in this era is the U.S. which ...]]></description><guid isPermaLink="True">http://psychx.joeuser.com/article/12880</guid><link>http://psychx.joeuser.com/article/12880</link><pubDate>Tue, 08 Jul 2008 21:18:48 -0400</pubDate><pubDateParsed>2008-07-09T01:18:48</pubDateParsed><title>History repeats itself</title></item></channel></rss>
