    Got rid of the iPhone

    I'm not an Apple fanboi, so while I used to love my iPhone, I was never "in love" with it. Then... I got an Android tablet, and started to really see what I was missing. Then... iOS 5 came out, and like a fool I updated my phone. Fuck. Fuckfuckfuckfuckfuck. What was a decent phone, and okay...

    Protect your images on Amazon?

    Okay, so here's the deal. I have this piddly little site that does about $0.60 a month in Adsense. The only reason I keep it, is because it's a subject I enjoy, so it's not a money site. However, I don't want it bleeding cash for no reason. Someone is using the images I have on Amazon's CDN and...

    My best friend was killed last night

    My whole world is in a fog right now. My dog, my companion, my best friend, was hit by a car in front of our house last night. He was probably dead before I reached him 15 secs later. Take a minute to give your dog or cat a hug and tell them you love them. Pets are our furry children. I miss...

    Groups...who knew?

    Been here over 5 years and this is the first time I've ventured into the Groups section. Apparently, you can create a group for like minded members. Who knew? (prolly everyone but me...oh well) So, being a firearms guy, I made a gun group. Anyone into guns, feel free to join...

    No more SEO_Mike

    Still the same guy, just minus the SEO_ part. Originally when I joined WickedFire, I was doing SEO for a company, so I used my job and name for my username. After I left that company, I no longer did SEO of any sort and turned to other means of advertising. Lately, it's felt really strange...

    Lexus owners

    For the first time in my life, I think I'm in love with a car. I drove a ES 330 the other day and can't stop thinking about it. One of the quietest, smoothest, most comfortable rides I think I have ever experienced. I know Lexus' reputation for longevity and comfort, but I what I'd really like...

    LCD, LED, Plasma, FUCK! I just want a new TV

    Short story: we have a Vizio 42" flat screen. Not sure if it's plasma, LCD, LED or whatever. About 4 years old (maybe 3, again, not sure). All it all, it's been a pretty decent TV, but lately it will randomly decide to give us the green screen of death. This can last between 30 seconds to 30...

    Tablets.. .Which one?

    I was thinking about getting an iPad2 for no other reason than I have an iPhone and really like it. Figured an iPad2 is just a giant iPhone so it'll be easy to learn. A friend suggested I look into the other tablets out there and not just go with an iPad2 on a whim. Sooo.... after looking at a...

    Another firearms thread....

    I can't help it. I love firearms. Shooting, cleaning, changing shit on them. Since the last thread I went and got my 45. Yeah, I know, I said I probably won't get one blah blah blah. That was just me trying to rationalize why I didn't need another gun....but I failed talking myself out of it. I...

    $_GET in Javascript?

    Yes, I realize $_GET is a PHP thing, but it's the easiest way to describe what I want. Very simple, I want to use javascript to do what PHPs $_GET [''] does, and then also use JS to write that value into my Goog Analytics code. PHP version of what I'm doing on other pages: <?php $var1 =...

    Amazon RDS and Wordpress (or anything actually)

    Want to put the DB for Wordpress and other database driven sites on THE CLOUD (I hate that catch phrase BTW). So, having used AWS for their CDN before, I figured this can't be too tough. Well, apparently it is for retards. If I understand things correctly: 1. Deploy your RDS instance 2. Make...
