Somewhere, on the internet, somewhere, waiting for me…
Actually, first up is a non-internet related reading tidbit. I learned two new words today be browsing the dictionary. Tumescence means a swelling, or a swollen body part. A Triskelion is a symbolic design featuring three curves or bent legs/arms eminating from the center (i.e. The flag of the Isle of Man).
Microsoft to Create Digital Monopoly: Paranoid? Yes. Is paranoia never justified? No.
The Best Candidate: Too bad he won’t be nominated. That’s what happens when you refuse to sell your soul to lobbyists.
John Edwards’s Anti-Brownie Law: “In response to pressure from the cookie lobby, Presidential hopefull-” Aw, screw it. I’m no John Stewart. But this is exactly what we need: government being run by people who know what they are doing. That’ll be the day, though.
Wikipedia: The Book: I’ve read longer…
The Opportunity Cost of the Iraq War: Good points, all causes I support. However, we’re also really fucking far into debt. Fixing social/economic/education problems is a must, but we also need to start paying this thing down. Almost 10% of our budget is paying the interest on our debt!
Full governmental transparancy: Great idea.
