Piracy- How to Fight It

September 19, 2011 No Comments

You can’t. No matter how hard you try you cannot fight piracy and keep our constitutional rights in place. What you can do is deter it by offer free online areas to both watch videos and listen to music. Hopefully then we can get back to the whole love of producing music just for… well ...

How to Recycle Things

August 9, 2011 No Comments

Giving (and Getting) Stuff for Free in Your Own Town Like most people, I like to shop and I like to shop for things that are free. Better yet, I like to shop for things that are free and can help the environment. At Freecycle.com, that is exactly what they do. Freecycle.com is an entirely ...

One of my favorite parts about summer are the weekly concerts at the Missouri Botanical Garden. As a recent college grad, what appeals to me most about these concerts is one word: FREE (that, and food and drinks are allowed). Now in its 18th year, the Whitaker Music Festival (it’s formal name) offers ten weeks ...

Microsoft Word Starter & Ads

April 23, 2011 1 Comment

Currently, as I write this, I’m sitting here on Microsoft Word Starter, and seeing the weirdest thing: advertisements. And the one thing that makes this especially funny is the fact the thing that their advertising is themselves.
