Hey there kids! In this episode, I have a broken throat, so it isin't normal. First, I sound a bit weird, and second, although it works out quite long for VFTQ these days, I don't do all that much talking. More ranting then normal though.

We talk about why Vista might not suck quite as much as everybody says it does, and I play a voicemail from a douchbag. And interrupt him every few minutes.

This week, since I have no school, there is a silly large amount of topic with which to speak. First, we have the suspense as WWDC sneaks up on us and I talk about a few things that I would like to see in the Apple conference.
Next, Top Ten Thoughts makes an unwelcome comeback with some listener suggestions and then I go on a bit of a rant about a certain reality TV show which started on Thursday.
Did you know that some poorly educated idiots are complaining about the Large Hadron Collider?  Apparently the world is going to end. With a Big Bang.
Next on the list: Are a certain species of Sharks hunting humans? The Sun reports that....
Thanks for listening to the show!

  1. The Rules of the internet (look below in the Links section for a link to the post on the website where you can see them)
  2. The mars landing
  3. Hugenormous solid state drives
