CameronKollwitz
Hey everyone, my name is Cameron Kollwitz. I'm 19, and I've been using computers since I can first remember. Right now, I have a thing with the whole "Offbeat News" some of the stories out there are just plain fascinating! I am also an avid technology user and have been in the past offered jobs at Microsoft for development. In my free time, I blog on my personal web site (cameronkollwitz.com) along with my offbeat blog (iwouldntdothat.com). I'm very politically outspoken, and I apologize in advance if I somehow offend you politically.

Bad Idea: The Dentist
Do No Evil – alright, i've done some pretty stupid things in the past - but this one takes the cake. i was in for a routine checkup, nothing serious and i knew that i had maybe 1 cavity. well, the dentist was helping several other impatient patients (sorta like a paradox of oxymorons) and i got bored. that was my first mistake.
