Senator Jay Rockefeller (D-WV) has spent considerable time drafting a bill that would give the President power to declare a “cybersecurity emergency” on non-government networks and seize control of them under the pretense of protection.
This does not sit well with me. Giving government the capability to control a public, open and free network is where [...]
So much has happened this week and I am surprised I made it out alive. Check it out.
Monday
I was working on billing stuff with Boss #2 in Henderson when his wife left to take one of the kids to grandma’s and grab food at Arby’s, if I remember correctly. She backs out of the driveway [...]
I remember having a dream that I had 11 globes in my room. It started off at six, but in a matter of minutes it ballooned to 11. Here’s what DreamMoods has to say on the subject:

Taking a page from the old habits of the one and only Dariush on the titling here. It’s only appropriate since he has more than normal to do with the story I’m telling tonight.

Use this stimulus money to buy all stock in an insolvent bank/automaker/whatever. All of it. [...]
Earlier this evening while I was wearing my “garbage man” hat at the LRB, I noticed a sort of memo/form letter one prints out to send to a lawmaker or what have you. It said something to the effect that once Obama takes office, he will try to legalize abortion and that this “systematic murder” [...]
I just visited the Owensboro High School web page. It has really gone downhill since we all graduated. Here’s a list of things it used to do but does no longer:
You could login with your domain user name and know how many new emails you had.
It would tell you the weather.
It would tell you what [...]
Unsurprisingly, I have a beef with Google. I am no stranger to beefs with Google. However, this one is a bit more vain than previously.
Owensboro recently was blessed by the Google-gods with Street View. Exciting, exciting, exciting. What does one do upon their first visit to Street View? They look for their house. However, I [...]
Due to a seriously baffling chain of events this morning, my web site is now back on my very trusty server at the Loch Raven Building.
Shortest. Blog post. EVAR.
