No Helmets for Motorcycle Riders in Michigan

I called State Farm to ask what were the implications with the change in motorcycle helmet law in Michigan.  I was told that riders who opt to not wear helmets are required to carry a $20,000 medical insurance.  But here’s the catch…

If you ride without a helmet and get into an accident and be injured “catastrophically” then the tax payer pays your the deficit of medical expenses over $20K.

Game of Thrones

I was sick today and stayed in bed most of the day. I found Game of Thrones in On Demand on my cable box.  It’s too bad that it is only in season two so I will probably be caught up by the weekend.  It’s is both cool and the suck when a story is complicated.  It is hard to garner a bigger a new audience on the fly because they need to start from the beginning to understand the storyline.  But it is rewarding to actually follow the story… just like Heroes I guess.  I wonder if like Heroes the writers for Game of Thrones will also start making things stupid?

Credit Ratings

We need a governing body that oversees the schemes that come out of the likes of S&P and Moody’s and Fitch.  If we let the market fix itself, as a U.S. conservative would say then we are running the risk of fucking up the global economy.  There is something very fishy with these credit rating companies.

My HTPC Keyboard/Mouse Choice

I was looking for a keyboard with possibly a trackball built in but instead I found this awesome solution.  It has a 30 meter range, works with Windows, Mac, and Linux.  Super small, built in trackpad and is rechargeable.
