Ron Paul Goes To The Zoo
Posted on January 31, 2008 - Filed Under Vote 2008 | Leave a Comment
I’m not much for posting videos on my blogs (I visit blogs to read, not watch), but this one was just too catchy and too clever for me to let slide by without sharing.
The songwriter actually came up with the music and lyrics, then posted them to YouTube with a call for an animator. […]
Should We Be Happy For No Reason?

The Sedona Method seems to be everywhere I look these days. Marci Shimoff, founding member of The Transformational Leadership Council, has followed up her massive best seller The Secret with a new book called “Happy For No Reason”. Apparently Mariel Hemingway, granddaughter of Ernest Hemingway, followed these methods to overcome the depression that […]
Applied Anarchy - Voting As Self-Defense
Posted on January 30, 2008 - Filed Under Living Free, Vote 2008 | 15 Comments
There’s a good portion of anarchists, agorists, libertarians, rebels, and general freedom lovers who believe that voting is not only pointless, but also immoral, unethical, or even anti-thetical to a belief in freedom. The argument generally goes something along the lines of voting “participating in” or “supporting” the corrupt government system. Well, I’ve been an […]

I first heard about Net Audio Ads a few weeks back when they began seeking bloggers to advertise their Pay Per Play ads via the other PPP: PayPerPost. This created quite a bit of controversy due to the nature of the ads. Don’t get me wrong, the ads themselves aren’t objectionable in any […]

When Izea first rolled out their new IzeaRanks.com I set myself a goal of moving Philaahzophy into the position of top ranked political blog. While climbing through any ranking system is seldom easy, the fact that they’re regularly underreporting my stats by as much as 50%, and not reporting the stats of the […]

When I got married some 13 years ago we were beyond broke. The wedding had to be in Las Vegas because the bride’s family was unwilling to travel to the Bay Area, but at least they got us our hotel stay for free. Still, we were unable to afford much in the way […]
The Ticket Scalping … er … Reselling Experiment
Posted on January 30, 2008 - Filed Under Earning Offline | Leave a Comment
One of the money making opportunities I’ve been intending to explore for sometime is the controversial world of scalping reselling concert and event tickets. When I was homeless in the 90s one of the ways I’d earn money was to sit on line for ticket resellers in order to help them get around the […]

I’ve written a few times about my ignorance of the stock market. It’s not that I don’t understand how it actually works, but rather I’m always stuck with a single question: Which stocks to buy?
