I just installed Skipscreen, and the motherfuckers who created it have it install the Bing Toolbar without any warning whatsoever, they also hijacked my homepage and added Bing as my default search engine in the upper right search box in Firefox. I’m surprised they didn’t change my default browser settings so IE would be my default browser!
I installed it on the recommendation of a friend, and then when it prompted me to restart Firefox, I did…then I saw the Bing Toolbar and thought WTF!!!
They know you’re not going to want to keep it, so they disabled right click and gave it the name Search 1.04 or some BS like that so it would be harder to find! It’s also not in the uninstall programs section of your control panel.
Anyway, here’s what you do to remove it”
- Go to Start=>>Computer=>>Double click your hard drive on that screen…it most likely has the letter “C”=>> Program Files =>> and then look for Search Bar, or Search 1.04, I can’t remember…delete that folder. This is what I did, you may want to just go to step 2 first and see if that works. I just deleted that folder because I hate when the scumbags install a bunch of crap on your machine!
- Open Firefox, Go to Tools=>> Add-ons=>> Scroll down until you see Search 1.04 or whatever number, it may say Search Toolbar, powered by Bing, select it and then click uninstall.
If you like Bing and want the toolbar, then you’re good to go…but if you’re like everyone else, you’ll be pissed because Skipscreen did it without asking…I would avoid installing Skipscreen, unless you really need it because you download a lot of things online.
Why the makers of Skipscreen would hook up with Bing is beyond me…All Bing is, is MSN with a face-lift! They still suck, their search results are just as jacked as before…it just shows you how desperate Microsoft, like Yahoo is, that they’ll allow people to add an automatic installation of their toolbar with out ever giving the option to not install. The same thing happened when I installed Skype…only with them, it was that damn eBay highlighter. I also wrote how to uninstall that here: Removing ebay Browser highlighter
I uninstalled Skipscreen, because I don’t download a lot, and I don’t need JUNK on my machine! The makers of Slipscreen can kiss my fat ass!!

I was told by my cleaning lady (who isn’t Catholic or Christian) that I looked like “Jesus Christ” in a picture I showed her. The funny thing is, she thought I looked like a guy that neither of us believe existed…not in the way that we’ve been taught to believe anyway…personally, I actually believe that “Jesus Christ” is a concept and not an actual human being…it is a good concept, unfortunately it has been fucked up by organized religious cults liked the catholic church.
I say cult because how is it possible that any man can change the “word of ‘G’od”…it’s a marketing ploy that’s how…there was a line in the movie Dogma…the late great George Carlin said when speaking about the cigarette industry marketing to young children: “If only we could get their numbers…”. That was dead on accurate…they change things around in order to keep up with the times, but still claim that it’s the word of god…anyway…I just watched Religulous…so you can see how something like media can influence a person’s thoughts…or in this case infuriate a person that already believes that the whole thing is a sham of a half scam of a full mochery
I felt the movie was right on! So many people are taken in and live their lives in a hypocritical way…which to me is the worst thing that anyone could do!
How many of you reading this consider yourself a good (insert religion here)? How many of you actually live the life that you’re supposedly supposed to live?? Do you actually “love thy neighbor”? Do you “turn the other cheek”? Basically are you a good enough human being that you will actually help somebody in need…like that guy standing at the end of the freeway offramp asking for your spare change? If you give that person a buck, or the change in your pocket, is your life going to be any worse than it already is??
The good human would give that buck or change and not care what the person receiving it does with it…the fact is, you made that person happy by doing something that WILL NOT affect your life negatively whatsoever! It can only affect you in a positive way! My point is, do you practice what you preach?

If to text the word Haiti to 90999 it will charge $10 to your cell bill…you can read more about it here, because you should never believe something like this that you’ve read on a blog unless you trust the person writing it and/or know the person.

I started a petition online here to abolish Daylight Savings time, there is absolutely no need for it anymore, so why do it. I would like it to abolished throughout thed whole country, but if not the entire country then at least in California where I live.
People absolutely loose their minds when all of a sudden it’s dark out when they drive home from work at night when they’re used to it being light outside.
Please go here: http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/daylightsavings/, sign it and post it and pass it along everywhere!!

I have a couple orchids at home and both are blooming. One started over a month ago and has nine flowers on it…it’s amazing how long the flowers last, the 9th one just opened up. The pics below show the progression of both.
The other started about a month ago and the has 3 flowers…they’re almost open, I can’t wait to see what they look like as this is the first time it has bloomed.
Check out the pics below, click on the pic to go to the page and then to see the large pic, click it again.:

I found this bit of code a while ago that’s handy if you want to add someone to your blogroll or just want to stop the link juice from being drained by the default links in your blogroll…that is if you haven’t deleted them already…anyway, open this page in an html editor or notepad or whatever you use…I use Homesite because it colors the code to make it easier to read…download and open this file: (note: always download files first, that way you’re sure to get the latest copy…even if you’re the only one touching the site, just get into the habit of downloading first, that way it becomes automatic, so whenever you’re working on a site, you’ll just do it…trust me, you’ll thank yourself at some point down the road…and download twice, put one in your backup folder and then download one to work on…)
Download: (I’ve turned the brackets around in order to show the code…that code tag I think is supposed to makew it readable in posts, but it doesn’t so…when adding it to your Wordpress blog, turn the brackets around!)
wp-admin/edit-link-form.php
Look for this line of code around line 190:
>tr<
>th scope=”row”< >?php /* translators: xfn: http://gmpg.org/xfn/ */ _e(’identity’) ?< >/th<
Then insert this chunk of code right before the opening TR:
>!–Start nofollow code–<
>tr<
>th scope=”row”< /th<
>tr<
>th scope=”row”> nofollow >/th<
>td<
>label for=”nofo”<
>input class=”valinp” type=”checkbox” name=”nofo” value=”nofollow” id=”nofo” >?php xfn_check(’nofo’, ‘nofollow’); ?< /<
nofollow>/label<
>/td<
>/tr<
>!–end nofollow code–<
I added the comment code as well so when you look at it in the future or want to copy it again, you can just go into the admin and copy it. Personally I keep a code snippets folder on my machine and every time I find something useful I open a Notepad file and cut and paste it, then save with a name that will be easy to identify in the future. I open a separate Notepad file for each code snippet.
After you've added that code and uploaded the file, go to your links section, scroll down and you should see the nofollow check box as in this this image:
