I just passed a car with a bumper sticker that read:
“why do we kill people who kill other people to show that killing people is wrong?”
Think about it. Really. Why do we kill murderers? I mean, isn’t that the epitome of hypocrisy? You are sentenced to death by lethal injection for murdering and abusing three small children and then their mother. Really? What is America coming to? What good does killing a murder do. Prove to them that killing is worth killing for?
/sarcasm off
My immediate answer is, … so the ones killing other people stop killing people! I mean come on. Do you REALLY have to ask why we remove murderers from the gene pool? Why do we take anti-bacterial medicine when we are stick? I’m not a doctor but I’m pretty sure it is to kill the bacteria that is killing our living cells and causing our sickness.
I guess if I was a good pacifist, I would spend more time talking about the virtue of really explaining to murders, terrorists and child abusers whose recidivism (likelihood to re-offend)Â percentage is around 90%, why that killing is really bad. I’m also sure that if we would just take the time to explain to Osama Bin Laden that blowing up buildings that housed thousands of living souls isn’t right, or nice, or cool, then I’m sure he would stop. This man-hunt that will likely end in his death is simply proposterous. Think about Gangs. One game member kills another gang member. That sparks the victims ( we are really calling gang members victims??? ) gang to retaliate and likely kill a member of the opposing gang, who then retaliates and…you get the point.
Stink! I thought I /sarcasm off’d. It somehow slipped back on.
If, in this great United States of America, we truly have a generation coming that is asking why we are stopping people from killing them, and their children, I desperately wonder what will be next? I won’t open up the gun rights can of worms…. This is just me rambling but I’m dumbfounded by the stupidity that is ramping up on a grand scale! *sigh*

I’ve heard the talk over and over about how the main categories of websites are:
- Informational
- Creative
- eCommerce
These are my own variations to the popular terms, but in essence, that’s it. What boggles me is that somehow the consensus is that the Creative style site is the only one that qualifies for high-quality graphics!
This bothers me. Why is it that popular opinion says that webpages that have ALOT OF TEXT should be ugly, drab, plain and boring? WordPress, blogs, Drupal, Joomla, etc. Remember PHPNuke? Every site looked identical. Every wonder why every news organizations website looks just like the next?
I know…the link colors are different, the header shows the logo and information of that individual organization, but they are all the same! BLAH! Get creative, make it look good. Make it give people a reason to look again. Honestly, when is the last time you pulled into a fast food shack because the picture on the billboard picture actually looked like the burger that gets dumped in the bottom of the bag? Like never?
Why does the world of fashion put the top priority on perfect images formed by popular opinion?
In simplest forms, make it look good and people will want it! Have you ever eaten at McDonald’s and walked away saying MAN THAT WAS GOOD!!! Like never?
TopSoft Design Studio’s about page says nothing about how great I am. How many websites I’ve completed, how many pages of code I’ve read/written. It says that my focus is making you look good, so count on looking if you have me design your website!
