The Song Remains The Same

Been a scary couple of days in the news.  Guy went nuts in Alabama, and kid shoots up a school in Germany.  Pretty scary as both of them not only hit their original targets, but travelled and took out some bystanders as well.  Not good news, ever.

Of course, while the parents may be charged in the German case, they are trying to, once again, blame video games.  I’m tired of this, it’s such bullshit, and I even found a book related to the subject that may support it: Grand Theft Childhood.

Also found this interesting article that I have just skimmed, will read more later:

Why shooting rampages aren’t big news anymore

Kind of a disturbing though, but in our sensationalist and vicarious society, it’s almost not.

My Windows XP will not automatically login anymore.  Not sure why, and I’ve tried the suggested MS fix, yet still nothing.  This is becoming just anothers window irritance to me.  I do so hate windows.
