Okay, so, once again, my thoughts are scattered, and my links are, too.<\/p>\n
First, there’s a link to an article on Australian IT that makes me glad I don’t live in Singapre when I was teaching my parents about bandwidth theft. Apparently, a nosy neighbor turned a kid in and now, he’s been sentenced for stealing another neighbor’s wifi bandwidth<\/a>. Kind of harsh, but, then it is Singapore, so he’s probably lucky he didn’t get caned!<\/p>\n Here’s two that are sort of related. At least, they both rot your brain. And, finally, since I finished paying the bills right before I typed this in, from the Get-Rich Slowly blog, Money Making Hobbies (from 1938)<\/a>. The dream is always to get that hobby that not only pays for itself, but makes a little extra, too. Sadly, based on the suggestions from this book, the only way to make money with a “hobby” is to write and sell this kind of book!<\/p>\n
\nFirst there’s the gross one. Did you all hear about the “brain worms” found in South Texas<\/a>? Apparently, these nasty, little buggers, if you’ll pardon the pun, get into your brain via improperly stored and prepared food, then, they eat their way out.
\nThe other brain-rot story was one that surprised even this jaded cynic: pot-laced snack products<\/a>. Yeah, no joke. They’re illegal as all hell, but some guy was apparently selling these cannibis-infused “look-alike” snacks. Crazy stuff.<\/p>\n
