Just imagine if you could replace the interior of a mini with cheap materials, increase the size to make it more difficult to park, and give it an engine to make it more sluggish although consuming more fuel than the original....well now that dream is a reality.

Presenting the Ford Flex. Good thing they just got 4 billion dollars from Bush to create blatant knock-offs such as this one

Remember when China was the one manufacturing illegitimate Nike shoes? Now I feel like we're the perpetrators. Shame, Ford.

With vitamins and minerals. If you're European you will say "vit" like "zit" as if it were an exotic confection. "how bout a spot of Diet Coke with "vit"-amins, good sir?"

Old battlegrounds, new weapons. Starting a software company in 2009 is like driving a Porsche through a minefield. The technology for building killer web apps are there, the programming capital can be right at your fingertips with a few strokes of a keyboard, and there's plenty of action.

Avoiding early stage pitfalls, burnout, and running out of cash is just part of the battle. Those have been age old obstacles, and the software company exec of the 21st century now needs a few tricks up his sleeve to survive due to a stagnant economy.

1. A strong network of contacts in the tech, legal, and social sectors

2. Good credit

3. Perseverance to eat dirt for a few years before payoff

4. Extreme creativity both in problem solving and relationships

5. Killer instinct. Adapt and learn new ways to do business and evolve

Leverage new tools such as social media, blogs, web 2.0, mobile, SEO, etc. Jack of all trades should thrive

Its an extremely difficult time to stay in business but a great time to start a software business. There's no existing platforms to support, users to placate with feature rollouts at breakneck pace, and fixed costs to deal with

Clean slate. New tech is constantly leveling the playing field between the big guys and little ones.

With that said, onto the business plan!

New 2009 honda civic. Great ergonomics, quiet ride, excellent mileage. Bought as a backup car which has turned into my primary.

So every now and then, the blackberry needs a random number to encrypt your email traffic. Generating said number involves shaking the mouse erratically until the aim of your movements results in a number being created.

Unfortunately, the act of flailing the right hand quickly in order to finish the process resembles something you'd rather not be caught doing at work.

Great security measure, horrible implementation. Can't you just use the time/day/month like a good program would?

As soon as I become an uncle, I need to get my niece to do that. That would totally rock by helping me recoup all the lost cash on this game.
