Useless Statistic of Day – Playstation 2 Sales

Sony Computer Entertainment Inc. is tooting the horn that cumulative sales of its PlayStation 2 gaming system has hit 150 million units (as of January 31, 2011).

It took Sony 10 years and 11 months to reach this supposed milestone since PlayStation 2′s debut in Japan in March 2000.

To feed the PlayStation 2 beast, some 1.52 billion software units representing 10,828 titles have been sold.

We’ve never understood this craze over gaming systems, either on the PC or via dedicated consoles like Playstation 2, Xbox or Nintendo Wii.

If we had our way, we’d outlaw these wretched things! :(

How Lazy can Some Schmucks Be?

 General  4 Responses »

It never ceases to amaze us that some regular readers of SI are too lazy to even bookmark our web site or type the fairly easy to remember URL in the browser.

Each time these folks want a SI fix, they do a search on the major search engines for ‘Searchindia’ or ‘Search India’  to reach at our online home. Newbies do the same too. Worse, some even search for ‘SearchIndia.com.’

No kidding.

Say, how difficult can it be to bookmark us or drag our URL to the Bookmark toolbar in Firefox or IE, or, horror of horrors, to take the trouble to type in the simple URL.

BTW, the name is SI, SearchIndia.com (a la Bond, James Bond).

Hard to understand our people.

Just impossible.

Judas in the White House

 America, General  1 Response »
Dec 242010

(Dedicated to SI blog reader Gora, who first recognized the charlatan. This post is mainly for our North American readers who understand the context better.)

Tis’ Christmas eve in America
Columbia Mall on Patuxent Rd is full
the Starbucks Latte line is long
but I have no cause to smile
for I ain’t got no job this year
Where have all your promises gone.

There’s a deep chill in the air
powder snow on the ground
All day long and all night,
I’m short of breath
gasping, gasping for O2
but I ain’t got no public option
Where have all your promises gone.

Was clinging to mama’s tits
when I crossed the Rio Grande.
Today I’m an honors student
scared of being victim #391,478
on your deportation order this year
Where have all your promises gone.

I used to enjoy my Internet
all my apps used to run fast
Net neutrality was my assurance
until you sold us out to the ISPs
Where have all your promises gone.

On my fifth tour of Kandahar
I know the back roads of hell.
Between the landmines and jihadis
I got no hope of returning alive
Where have all your promises gone.

Social Security & Medicare
flounder on rocky shores
But to fill your campaign coffers
you gave tax breaks to the rich
Where have all your promises gone.

You are the 21st century Judas
who treacherously betrayed us
You dashed our hopes
the ones who lifted you up
In your traitorous greed
all you care about is another term
Where have all your promises gone.

So all you know-nothing dickheads and putzheads think those blue jeans you never want to get out of originated in Genoa, Italy.

Shows how little you schmucks know.

Blue jeans actually had their origins in India.

Genoa was only a way station on the jeans’ path to world-wide popularity.

According to An Uncommon History of Common Things, jeans has its origins in a thick cotton indigo-dyed cloth that 16th century sailors used to buy near the Dongarii Fort, near Bombay (now Mumbai). Continue reading »
