Blogs are so passe

I've been meaning to post about this subject a while back, but got sidetracked with 100 other things I'd rather do. This brings me to my point. I don't believe blogs are as popular and interesting anymore.
Whenever big time newspapers and huge Enron type corporations get into blogging, then it's official, blogs are passe. Whenever I think blogging, I think the year 2000. Unfortunately whenever I think the year 2006, I think Myspace.
Personally I view a handful of blogs about once a month and even then, it's just to glance over nice photos and popular links.
My projection is by the year 2010 there won't be any blogs, instead just an internet filled with nothing but Myspace sites. Joy....?

Honda versus Toyota

While the new 2007 Toyota Camry is getting its share of attention, the current Honda Accord is being oddly overlooked.
The public relations department at Toyota is doing a bang up job of promoting the new Camry with features a Honda Accord offered years ago. To name a few; a hybrid engine, dual a/c, heated seats, powerful V6, and exceptional quality.
But have no fear my Honda lovers. Next year the all new Accord will be released (top image) and it'll blow away the Camry. One of the highlighted features happens to be an all-wheel drive system similar to the Acura RL. It provides unsurpassed handling even in the rain. I know this first hand, having driven the new RL multiple times in dry and wet conditions.
Anyhow, sit tight car lovers, Honda is still the leader in automotive superiority.

Protests

Hundreds of thousands of protesters marched up and down the streets of America trying to voice their opinion on the new immigration bill, which could make illegal immigrants and those who hire them criminals.
What I find most interesting about this entire thing is that when news reporters asked random people in the crowds what they're doing there, what they want to accomplish, and what they would do if they were in power - most said they didn't know. As a matter of fact, the kids participating in protests who ditched school have no clue what they're protesting for, but instead it's for Mexican pride they claim.
Which is fine I suppose, but make that clear; that you don't know what you're doing out there instead of causing confusion and chaos.
After all we have laws for a reason and crossing the border illegally is breaking the law here in the United States.
Instead of shouting and skipping school, I think it would be more productive to come up with solutions that could be implemented in American law without causing threat from terrorists.

Happy Birthday

Considering it's my Birthday I suppose a blog is in order. Not too much to report from my personal life, everything is pretty much the same. Turning 24 years old isn't much different than turning 23 or probably how turning 25 will feel. It's all the same, after 21 that is.
On Saturday my friends took me out to Roy's here in LA with fantastic Hawaiian Fusion food, certainly the best Hawaiian Fusion food I've ever had...
My girlfriend was kind enough to get me a bunch of different things that I needed, sunglasses, wallet, etc. Gotta love her. And of course my friends did a good job of hooking me up with DVDs and clothes (including my new favorite t-shirt of all time, Booyakasha!).
And in a completely unrelated story... Have sex in public and save the environment. God love 'em.
