Newsgroup/Usenet Access for download puposes

I'm still suprised by the number of people I meet who use peer-to-peer applications like eMule and BitTorrent. It is just not safe anymore...you may get your ass sued!!

I have been asked by dozens of people as to what I use to download stuff. When answering Usenet...I always get a confused face staring back at me. Since most people do not bother into investigating it any further, I thought it would be practical for me to create a short guide in how to use newsgroups/usenet to download from.

I do not wish to freely distribute this article, but if anyone is interested, please leave a comment and then mail me at:

The benefits of getting up early in the mornings

First off, it's been over a month since I last blogged...my humble apologies. I planned to document my jury service experience, but the case is do damn confusing I'm having trouble explaining it to myself. Plus, I would probably go to jail for saying anything.

Anyway, back to the point. I've always felt guilty about waking up late in the day...the times in which I do wake up early, I find that I get a hell of a lot more done.

To cut a long story short, if you have the same problems (particularily arguing to yourself in your head that the 10 minute snooze button makes all the difference), read this artice:
