We're from the government and we're here to spy on, errrr, help you
Bush Administration to Propose System for Monitoring Internet
If you thought Carnivore was a good idea, you'll love his big brother.
Has the government ever been granted more power than it needs and NOT abused it? Cases in point: interring Japanese-looking prisoners during WWII, using the FBI to spy on political enemies, McCarthism, etc.
Our nation should be ruled by law, not by men.

Alanis in concert -- Toronto
It was a very good show. I'm amazed she was as dead-on as she was. Quite a talented young woman.
I didn't think she would attempt "Uninvited" live as it is such a difficult song, but the results were very impressive. I was hoping to hear "Flinch", but she had other ideas.
Had 7th row seats, great view, even if 4 annoying bitches behind us talked to one another through the entire show. Memo to you annoying whores in the 8th row, seats 38-41: it's a concert. Watch the fucking performance and shut your damn pie-holes. I came to listen to a show, not hear about how Marcus and Jane are going to elope on New Year's Eve. Fucking ingrates.
Also, Alanis...babe. You're a great singer, great song-writer, but you are *not* a guitar player. You have a very pretty, sparkley gold guitar, but I don't need to see or hear you strap it on and play 2 chords over and over. Don't pretend to be a guitarist. You're not.
