i call shotgun.

This entry was originally published at calchan.com

someone once told me the term “riding shotgun” had no violent connotation- but i just learned it does.

the term comes from the 1800’s when Wells Fargo used to be an express mailing company like Fedex. whenever their stage coaches carried lots of valuable items, they would hire a skilled gunslinger to sit next to the driver and protect the cargo from raiders. among the usual array of weapons the hired arm might carry, he would of course carry a shotgun.

macs are cheaper.

This entry was originally published at calchan.com

“Let’s put to rest the myth that an Apple computer will set you back more than a Windows PC. In fact, it’ll cost you less.”

says a so called column -> Once and for all, proof that Macs are cheaper than PCs

except there’s only one problem with the article- the author eludes you into thinking the article is talking about macs being cheap when it’s not. it’s talking about investment.

when it comes to a computer though, who the hell “invests”? the author says mac users equate it to purchasing a BMW, when it’s really like purchasing a Ford. no it’s not. it is exactly like purchasing a BMW because the article talks about how well a mac holds its value.

but that’s why more people have Fords than BMW’s to this day, sir. and more people will always have pc’s than macs because we don’t have the capital to go “investing”. the majority, the poor, want a computer to use until it goes into the ground. when you consider that as the most common reason a computer is purchased, then ultimately a pc is FAR FAR cheaper than a mac.

initial cost is everything.

but you know what, if you had to pay the premium, i’d absolutely say a BMW is worth more of your money than a mac is. at least the BMW you’re buying wasn’t made in China.

bike upgrade.

This entry was originally published at calchan.com

from this

to this

tired of being embarrassed whenever someone asks ‘what bike’… answering with ‘Honda Rebel’ now comes out of my mouth at an inaudible volume. Vulcan. yeah that sounds much better.

“what bike do you have?”

“Vulcan.”

yeah that sounds ten times better.
