			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Admittedly, I&#8217;ve basically moved all personal posts to my Tumblr account: <a href="http://log.gmtaz.com" target="_blank">log.gmtaz.com</a> and you should too.  Why?  Here&#8217;s a quick top 10 reasons for why I did it:</p>
<ol>
<li>It&#8217;s Free</li>
<li>I can post to multiple services with one push: Facebook, Tumblr, Twitter.  I use <a href="http://twitter.com/dcinzona">twitter</a> and <a href="http://facebook.com/dcinzona">facebook</a> quite a bit these days and being able to post to everything at once is a HUGE time saver.</li>
<li>Easy mobile posting.  I have the <a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/tumblr/id305343404?mt=8">iPhone Tumblr app</a>.  It makes posting beyond simple.  I know that there&#8217;s one for wordpress, but before Tumblr, I would have to post to facebook, post to twitter, and post to wordpress (if I even wanted to go through the trouble because, let&#8217;s face it, the wordpress iPhone app kind of sucks).</li>
<li>Integration with Flicker.  I could post photos to Flickr and have them automatically appear in my Tumblr feed.  Slick.</li>
<li>Custom Themes and super easy to customize any theme you have selected.</li>
<li>You can allow others to post to your Tumblr roll (after queuing and approving)</li>
<li>Super easy analytics integration.  Got your own google analytics account?  Just edit your theme and put the GA script in there.  Done.</li>
<li>Automatically import your WordPress RSS feed (or any other RSS feed) into your Tumblr roll.</li>
<li>Custom Domain (i.e. log.gmtaz.com or whateveryouwanthere.tumblr.com)</li>
<li> Optimized mobile theme (optional but enabled by default).  It&#8217;s clean and it&#8217;s easy.  No setup required.</li>
<li>BONUS: Built in SEO</li>
</ol>
<p>I have to say, I really love Tumblr.  </p>

<p>10. Someone once tried to tell Chuck Norris that  						roundhouse kicks aren&#8217;t the best way to kick someone.  						This has been recorded by historians as the worst  						mistake anyone has ever made.</p>
<p>9. Chuck Norris is the only man to ever defeat a brick  						wall in a game of tennis.</p>
<p>8. Chuck Norris doesn&#8217;t actually write books, the words  				assemble themselves out of fear.</p>
<p>7. There is in fact an “I” in Norris, but there is no “team”… not  			even close.</p>
<p>6. Chuck Norris does not play the lottery. It doesn&#8217;t have nearly  			enough balls.</p>
<p>5. Chuck Norris can divide by zero.</p>
<p>4. There are no such things as tornados. Chuck Norris just hates  			trailer parks.</p>
<p>3. There is no theory of evolution, just a list of  						creatures Chuck Norris allows to live.</p>
<p>2. Chuck Norris once ate three 72 oz. steaks in one  						hour. He spent the first 45 minutes having sex with his  						waitress.</p>
<p>And numero uno&#8230;.<span id="more-68"></span></p>
<p>1. If you spell Chuck Norris in Scrabble, you win.  						Forever.</p>
<p>Good times.  Credits go to: <a href="http://www.chucknorrisfacts.com/">http://www.chucknorrisfacts.com/</a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.gmtaz.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/07/www_image.thumbnail.jpg" alt="WWW" style="float: left" />During my various episodes that I like to call &#8220;browsing the web&#8221;, I came across the humorous blog/gossip site called  <a href="http://www.gawker.com" title="Gawker" target="_blank">Gawker</a>.  The Gawker stands out among others mostly because it doesn&#8217;t give a shit about who/what it&#8217;s reporting/blogging on/about.  Was that enough slashes for you, Mike?/?!</p>
<p>Ok, anyway, One of the funnier sections on the site is called &#8220;The Unethicist&#8221;.    In this feature, an editor takes the same questions he finds on another periodical and answers it in his own special way.  Here&#8217;s a sample post:<span id="more-32"></span></p>
<blockquote><p> <em>A consulting river scientist, I co-designed a bridge project to include creative use of plants and an elegant solution for handling floodwaters. The design won a major award I&#8217;m quite proud of. Some months later, I learned that a member of the awards committee may have been improperly influenced, although I cannot be certain. May I continue to list the award on my résumé? Steve Gough, Murphysboro, Ill.</em></p>
<p>Your problem is common enough, Steve, and the solution is poetic. Find a serene, untouched stretch of river somewhere. Design the most beautiful bridge the world has ever seen, with shimmering suspension cables held in stunning arcs between the soaring anchor towers. Give the stonework the kind of craftsmanship no longer found in modern construction, and landscape the shorelines along each side of the river to speak to the meditative beauty of the natural world. This will be a great opportunity to express the transformative power of man&#8217;s union with nature, not a brute conquering of the world, but a way to live in it. Include creative use of plants and an elegant solution for handling floodwaters.</p>
<p>When this work is done, climb out to the crest of the bridge, stare out at the glorious view afforded only by elevation over water expanses, take a deep breath, and throw yourself in that fucking river and drown to death. You are boring.</p>
<p>Then again, unlike other <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2007/07/01/magazine/01wwln-ethicist-t.html?ref=magazine" target="blank">popular adviceicists</a>, I don&#8217;t have an Emmy for work I didn&#8217;t even do on an episode of <em>Late Show with David Letterman</em> to gratuitously mention in my responses for no reason at all, so you might want to get a second opinion. I&#8217;m still pretty sure no one gives a fuck about your resume, though.</p></blockquote>
<p>Ah, good times&#8230;good times.  I still stand by my post title&#8230;The internet has gotten rather boring.</p>
<p>Oh, one special note&#8230;The site may contain articles that are NSFW&#8230;if you don&#8217;t know what that means, I seriously question how the hell you got to my site in the first place&#8230;</p>
