Zac Efron is Jimmy Neutron?





It certainly looks like he was going for that...

Possible live action film now? rofl

Freakin' Madonn!

I Watched Law and Order: Criminal Intent for only one reason--Jeff Goldblum.

Here I am intently watching the episode waiting for Goldblum to appear and...

Nothing...no dice.

No Jeff Goldblum.

What the freak USA Network?!

Don't say Jeff Goldblum is going to be in Criminal Intent if he isn't.

I'm not Watching Law and Order Criminal Intent because I like Watching Law and Order Criminal: Intent but because I want to see Jeff Goldblum act in Law and Order: Criminal Intent.

I don't turn the TV on for just any show or anything.

The whole fact that I am flipping to USA Network when there is no House and no Burn Notice to Watch is highly rare.

I might never attempt to Watch Law and Order: Criminal Intent again...because of failure to alert that, "Oh, the chief reason for which you are watching this show is not going to be on the show."

Anyways some Law and Order now...yeah, so this is the problem with normal TV. Because really who watches much TV this day? Usually people watch things online, through DVDs but sparingly on TV, if at all.

I was highly disappointed with the fact that the reason for which I was watching the show never really happened and I am left with the possibility of Jeff Goldblum being in the next episode.

But why should I believe USA Network when I see:



that description on their website when they've already lied to me?

Seriously it's not that big a deal but what if I never ever watched it again? ...Due to this small incident?

Blame USA Network...

Madonn!

My PowerBook G4 is at again w/ it's Optical Drive problem.

This time it won't read or write a CD/DVD whether burned/unburned, etc.

The last time this happened I upgraded to Leopard and then fixed it by downgrading to Tiger...

Must I now downgrade to Panther?

At this point I am considering it.

Among other things wrong with my PowerBook G4 is the trackpad that has given up the ghost thus leaving me with strict usage of a wireless mouse.

Unlike some whom have a laptop and use it on a desk or a flat surface I use it on my lap. Believe me that usage of a mouse on one's leg or atop the laptop is as much a hassle as it is a balancing act once some minor fatigue sets in and you want to stretch.

Also I am on my third charger...if I have to buy another one I'll stop using the Powerbook because it won't be able to be used anyways.

Oh and it's a thrid party charger because I wasn't about to step into an Apple store to buy a third charger for a computer almost half the age of my iMac Bondi G3. (Even that computer has proved to be more formidable than my PowerBook G4). For if I did step into an Apple store or go to their website it would be to buy a new mac.

At one point I was so dissatisfied with my Mac that I thought of just buying a Windows Computer--no, not even running a bootcamp on Mac or installing Mac OS X on a Windows machine...

Just buying a Windows Enabled Computer (Ha! As if it was enabled to do things without first giving you headaches...lol).

One reason being is that after having lost all of my games I am reluctant to re-install all my games on my Mac for two reasons:

One, because I can't--or not easily as I have no optical drive. (Sure I can hook up my External CD Drive but what then of those on DVDs...huh?) Two games I'd like to play I'd have to get another computer and/or find a port of for Mac.

So yeah...having problems with the drive...

Great Googly Moogly it seems she is.

Shall I have a Sophia Coppola and a Spike Jonze film (Where The Wild Things Are) in the same year...?

Probably not but one can still hope.

Hopefully I shall be able see Spike Jonze's intial intent of the film and not the studios.

Anyways going back to Sophia Coppola--she's making a movie! How exciting. I pray there be a remarkable soundtrack as there has been for "Lost In Translation" and "Marie Antoinette".

Oh and plenty more Kevin Shields, My Bloody Valentine (or is that just a synonym...lol), Death In Vegas, Air, Squarepusher, etc.

Whilst others await mainstream films, many a time with no substance; films of interest that I await to see are:

Many (sadly) will recognize it as the movie about the guy on shirts and other items not knowing, or ever caring to find out who and what the man represents/did, etc. As one of the promo posters beautifully puts:

It is the biographical film of Ernesto "Che" Guevara Played by one of my favorite actors: Benicio del Toro and Directed by Steven Soderbergh with the film shot in Puerto Rico.

Film based on the non-fiction book written by Roberto Saviano has gotten attention from Cannes, the Police and the Camorra, the group of whom the book is about. Already the author has planned to leave Italy due to a death threat and police have already arrested a cast member for extortion and ties to organized crime.

Film based on a novel by Jules Amedee Barbey d'Aurevilly whose dynamic in the mere trailer is just so very intriguing.

I've been saying it for the longest time...

The RIAA should be prosecuted under The RICO Act as it qualifies more blatantly than even most crime syndicates.

Behold someone other than me thinks so in Missouri.

Let's hope that the RIAA is convicted on all 8 counts brought up in the 42 page PDF.

I've been very anti-social on the internet lately--I'd say pretty much for a good chunk of the month of July.

The reason being is due to first, my very unstable internet connection.

So far out of the 24 days in July I've had working internet for 14 days. With speeds ranging, but not limited to 3kbps to 89kbps.

Those 14 days of with varying speeds have made it very hard to accomplish much of anything.

Just going through say 200 feed items takes more than an hour sometimes closing in on the two hour mark...

However I've been a good little dmotion and been posting select feed items over on my Tumblr.

...It's July--or it has been July for some time now.

Of course July is the 'Holy' month of Cycling for me and many others...Le Tour De France!

So being who I am, much of my talk and much of my time (6:30AM EST TO 2:30PM EST) would be Le Tour De France...

Alas, for the first time in very many years it has not been so.

Due to my not having Cable/Satellite at the moment, (...I don't even have consistent internet much less TV...) I've been unable to Watch and Follow my beloved Tour De France...even via internet. (As I've said the internet has only been viable for 14 days this month.)

Yet despite all of this I am still informed, not as I would like to be, but enough to know and to be able to enjoy, albeit deprived of much enjoyment.

I am and have been thrilled about Damiano Cunego's participation in this year's Tour De France.

He's currently 14th overall.

There aren't very many of my favorites this year in The Tour--actually hardly any.

Chief among them Andreas Kloden, who could have very easily won the Tour De France last year had there had not been the Vino Incident that prompted the withdrawal of Team Astana.

Which in and of itself I deem very suspicious as I remember, (as I even recorded the stage) I could not even maintain my excitement at the magnificent astounding time trial of one of my most favorite riders: Alexandre Vinokourov and Andreas Kloden's placing that day and Astana's ascent to victory.

Alas such shock came to me at the accusations, the tests, the withdrawal.

Last year's Tour sucked really bad.

Despite that most people blame it on the Athletes and doping, I blame it on the laboratory testing facilities.

My frustration and anger was not to Vino that day but directly to the laboratory doing the testing.

I have found it rather interesting that no one in the cycling community has brought up that doping accusations, testing, investigations in recent times have very much eliminated the competition...for someone...

It's rather interesting that here the day when key Astana members have moved up on the GC (General Classification) that Andreas Kloden is poised to possibly win the Tour De France that one of the key members of Astana is accused and said that he has tested positive for blood doping...

I don't know if anyone has ever considered and/or looked into seeing if many of these laboratories have been paid off, planted things, botched test results--if there has/is evidence of foul play?

Surely we cannot forget the laboratory's "administrative error" with Landis...

Like I said before: "...this whole 'doping' thing is going to get sloppy..."

A very good case is the case of my favorite Sprinter: Alessandro Petacchi and his Asthma medication.

It's so strange how it seems they're knocking off major contenders.

Anyways I have high hopes for another big favorite of mine: Yaroslav Popovych (currently 25th overall) and his entire Silence-Lotto squad making big moves on the GCs and Points classification.

Out of all the squads I can see Silence-Lotto across the board:

Cadel Evans--Maillot jaune

Yarosalv Popovych--Maillot à pois rouges

Robbie McEwen--Maillot vert

First film I Watched in '08. Amazing, I watched this almost a month ago and it is still with me and I have yet to get over it. I have listened to it's score countless times and it is just simply astounding.



Another film by PTA it's kind of hard to Watch alone. It was very hard for me to Watch it though.



I really enjoyed this film and it's feel. I liked that it had Anna Friel with her accent.



This is my whatever-eth time Watching this film. I really enjoy Tony Scott's work. I enjoy this film's cinematography and it's pace.




This is film was a delight to Watch. Best if Watched in a group. It's pace was moderate. I enjoyed it.



I really wanted to watch this film. It was utterly delightful and fun. I'd watch this film a couple more times. Wonderful story telling.



A very statisfying film. I cringe with voice over beginnings but this film was wonderful. It's pace was very enjoyable.



This would be my second time Watching this film. I enjoyed it more on the second viewing. It's "Hitman" and I really liked it's pace, it's shots and it's score as well.



Another very statisfying film. I have to say however sometimes I wasn't able to enjoy the shot due to the soundtrack. There is very little silence. It's pace is rather quick yet pleasant. It's very touching and I particularly liked J.K. Simmons performance whom I very rarely like.



So much of a better film by leaps and bounds than "The Golden Compass". Hayden Christensen whom many people don't like and I particularly like comes off as rather dry and flaky but begins to develop during the film and towards the end really communicates the character. It was an enjoyable film.

Let me just say that the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences is utterly and profoundly stupid for rendering Jonny Greenwood's score of "There Will Be Blood" ineligible...

Out of the other scores that did get nominated: "Atonement", "The Kite Runner", "Michael Clayton", "Ratatouille", and "3:10 to Yuma" I have heard only one which is "Michael Clayton" but I was more drawn to it's acting than to it's score--I don't even remember it's score or even how it goes but I remember "There Will Be Blood's" Score.

How do I know that the scores of the other films aren't better than "There Will Be Blood's" score? ...for it's score is only akin to the likes of "Lawrence of Arabia" score that's why...

I hope that this will be their only screw up with "There Will Be Blood" and that it wins in all eight or at least seven ("Lawrence of Arabia" won seven, I will settle for seven ^_^) of it's nominations or they are idiots.

Ever since I've gotten Leopard on my PowerBook G4 I have been unable to burn anything whether it's CD or DVD. If I connect the external CD Burner I have via USB that works but the internal stock CD/DVD Burner from Apple is rendered as unknown or it throws an error stating that it cannot be calibrated...

I got Mac OS X Leopard on the 28th of October...

This is highly frustrating to me and it has been the only problem that I have had with Leopard and I have heard other people have had various other problems.

I Can't Burn DVDs...that sucks a lot.

I want to see this film: "The Bank Job"--I've always said, put Jason Statham in a dramatic role and you'll see something really great. I am awaiting the day when he will have such a role.





He just oozes off the screen, a perfect example of his presence oozing is in the film "London":



The soundtrack of the film is also amazing which was made by The Crystal Method.

So I will be seeing "The Bank Job"

Oh and you may be wondering about "Revolver"--I already saw that in 2005 and he's great in that as well, I even own the DVD but it's in Region 2 rofl :-P

"Possibly Maybe" by Björk

Music Video Directed by Stéphane Sednaoui:



Your flirt finds me out
Teases the crack in me
Smittens me with hope

Possibly maybe possibly maybe
possibly maybe

As much as I definitely enjoy solitude
I wouldn't mind perhaps
Spending little time with you
Sometimes
Sometimes

Possibly maybe probably love
Possibly maybe probably love

Uncertainty excites me
babe
Who knows what's going to happen?
Lottery or car crash
Or you'll join a cult

Probably maybe possibly love
Probably maybe possibly love, possibly

Mon petit vulcan
You're eruptions and disasters
I keep calm admiring your lava
I keep calm

Possibly maybe probably love
Possibly maybe probably love

Electric shocks?
I love them!
With you --> dozen a day
But after a while I wonder
Where's that love you promised me?
Where is it?

Possibly maybe probably love, possibly
Possibly maybe probably love, possibly

How can you offer me love like that?
My heart's burned
How can you offer me love like that?
I'm exhausted
Leave me alone

Possibly maybe possibly maybe
Possibly maybe

Since we broke up
I'm using lipstick again
I suck my tongue
In remembrance of you...

I Yearn to See this film, "There Will Be Blood" for it's potential epicness, it's inspiration that is drawn from Upton Sinclair's novel entitled "Oil!" and for it's music which brings a pleasure that I can only akin to the likes of "Lawrence of Arabia"...that is a grandiose statement coming from me...









I am looking forward so very much to viewing this film and seeing it's cinematography and it's editing.

So here comes the RIAA to extort money...or more like warning that it will go to that extent to protect copyright and the artists...yeah right...

In a letter received by a friend the RIAA shows just how nice they are:

"Dear Sir or Madam:

I am contacting you on behalf of the Recording Industry Association of America, Inc. (RIAA) and its member record companies. The RIAA is a trade association whose member companies create, manufacture and distribute approximately ninety (90) percent of all legitimate sound recordings sold in the United States. Under penalty of perjury, we submit that the RIAA is authorized to act on behalf of its member companies in matters involving the infringement of their sound recordings, including enforcing their copyrights and common law rights on the Internet." (emphasis mine)

First and foremost the RIAA defines itself as a trade association and nothing more.

They go on to say, "Under penalty of perjury" as if that has any foothold or veracity with them--I'm supposed to believe that someone who would ask for a bill not to be passed to further commit fraud, would makeup piracy stats, would threaten to intimidate 10 year old girls, wouldn't commit perjury for the cause of extortion--I mean hey if you're going to go the one yard go the whole nine yards right...

Heh, this gets me:

"This server is providing access to tens of thousands of copyrighted works by such artists as Red Hot Chili Peppers, Bon Jovi, The White Stripes and Gwen Stefani. We have a good faith beliefthat the above-described activity is not authorized by the copyright owner, their agent, or the law."

Uh-huh and I suppose they want as much money as the GDP of France to cover the, er, losses they have suffered...

"We have a good faith belief" what in the world is that...?! Good faith belief--that just means they have no idea what they're doing...they're a trade association if something truly illegal is happening first of all you wouldn't be hearing from the RIAA plus you don't just say, I have good faith belief that you murdered someone...you say it. Their usage of words clearly shows that nothing illegal is truly going on here just something that annoys them--nobody says I have good faith belief...except the RIAA of course...

"...is not authorized by the copyright owner, their agent, or the law."

Oh yeah and they know this how? Oh yeah because they have such great communication with artists right and they're looking out for them oh yes, how nice they've protected them...

Oh and here comes their money making phrase...

"under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, if you ignore this notice, you and/or your company may also be liable for any resulting infringement. This letter does not constitute a waiver of any right to recover damages incurred by virtue of any such unauthorized activities, and such rights as well as claims for other relief are expressly retained. We assert that the information in this notification is accurate, based upon the data available to us"

That was a load of crap...

What it means is if you didn't know these 'bad' things were happening--tough--we'll sue you for not knowing and those infringing as well and you are held responsible because we say you are and we own the stuff and that gives the right to tell you that you have no right. What we told you is right because we have the manpower, and money to prove its true--even if it's not true and not accurate in spite that it may be one of own saying it, it's still true because we said it first.

They invoke their god, the DMCA...by prefixing it with the words: "under the..."

The DMCA is to the RIAA what Terrorism is to Politicians--their reason for everything...

I suppose that under the DMCA it also gives the RIAA the right to assume the identify of the FBI and Interpol and to raid whatever they wish and go after Organized Crime and bring RICO aganist persons right...oh ok...

"We assert that the information in this notification is accurate, based upon the data available to us."

Wow, again I'm supposed to believe these lying vipers when they say that this is accurate when they taint stats and commit fraud and the audacity of them saying that it's accurate based upon the data available to them...

Ha! Yeah since when are they a credible source of accuracy...and who died and made them to be the end all be all for something like this...

They are a trade association not a law enforcement agency--they are in no way affiliated with the Government--except by bribes that is--I mean lobbyists.

For them to say, "including enforcing their copyrights and common law rights on the Internet"

"Common law rights"--?! ...On the internet? Seriously they're lying they can't enforce laws...I repeat they are not a law enforcement agency...enforce copyrights--maybe, possibly if they are the sole copyright owners...

They say so quickly is not authorized by the copyright owner, their agent, or the law" but have they taken the time to ask those whom they themselves have listed if they would like to enforce copyright?

Of course in all reality it doesn't matter because the RIAA is crazy and they're the real criminals and will do anything to extort...remember the RIAA are the ones that invoke the DMCA, that they say entitles them to a restitution of revenue 6 times more than the World's GDP approximately for one year of piracy give or take--but even that wouldn't satisfy them...

They end the letter assuming compliance:

"Thank you in advance for your prompt assistance in this matter. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at RIAA, 1025 F Street NW, 10th Floor, Washington, D.C., 20004, Tel. (202) 775-0101, or e-mail antipiracy@riaa.com."

Heh, please make sure to call the number/email and give them a piece of your mind--I'm sure they wouldn't mind.

Once again the RIAA Threatens...

After having said that "Global Warming" is worst than Communism and having stated my feelings about Live Earth...

Robert F. Kennedy Jr at the US Live Earth stated:

"Get rid of all these rotten politicians that we have in Washington, who are nothing more than corporate toadies...This is treason. And we need to start treating them as traitors."

In reference to politicians that are skeptical about so called "global warming"

So let me get this straight, if a politician in office is skeptical about "global warming"--doesn't believe in the claims of "global warming" he's a traitor and if he's a traitor than that means he's a terrorists...right? What?

Now I'm going to have to believe in this so called "global warming" or I'll be labeled a 'traitor'--a 'terrorist'?

True that I'm no politician neither am I in person in office but what is going to happen when people that are politicians--people in office begin to adhere to this thought of, being skeptical of 'global warming--"This is treason. And we need to start treating them as traitors."

Seeing now that label of 'terrorism' and 'terrorist' are thrown around more than volleyball for anything and everything; that 'terrorism' and a 'terrorist' are anything that they want it to be...

We now have to deal with yet another label--a traitor.

How long before you're a 'global terrorist' and a 'traitor' because your carbon footprint is way too much above average and you are put to death--"Deaths 4 A Live Earth: The Executions for a Climate in Crisis"

This kind of thought is indeed worst than communism and such things are only cultivated more by hypocritical events called, "Live Earth" where the mere travel of "Live Earth" performers makes a 'carbon footprint' bigger than any of us can make in our cars, SUVs, Motorcycles, etc. The artist aren't the real hypocrites--the real hypocrites are those organizing it--purchasing, getting 'carbon credits' for their infraction of a big 'carbon footprint'?

What is that? 'Carbon credits'--I suppose they'll also have 'life credits' how much you can live in relation to the output of CO2 from your body and by the time you don't have any you die...

All in the name of stopping "global warming"...you'll stop eating meat, stop wearing fur, stop breathing, stop living, stop having fun, stop thinking, stop trying to make sense of things, because if you're thinking you're leaving a carbon footprint--don't yawn that's a carbon footprint...

Make sure you walk to "Live Earth" while your favorite performers jet it to Live Earth.

Oh and also make sure you do what Madonna says, Jump to save the planet [expletive].

So Don't Believe In Global Warming? ...You're a Traitor? ...well, Robert F Kennedy Jr. thinks so...

Mutemouth? Seriously it's MuteMath even Mute Math is fine but not Mutemouth...

I take great offense to this misspelling. eh, so it's not that big a deal but still...

It's my favorite band and here they are being misspelled...

Got to meet them in person...

Got their DVD signed:



When I went to see them:



So it's messed that AOL misspelled their name as Mutemouth...

The RIAA has no shame and will go to any lengths to extort--I mean recover billions of dollars of lost revenues by suing and intimidating a disabled single mother and her 10 yr old daughter to pay up thousands of dollars or face her 10 yr old daughter being interrogated.

Not surprising that even after their "own expert supported her claims of innocence" they still wanted money--why? Because there wasn't even anything illegal in the first place--they just want money and any way they get it is fair game for them.

So what kind of things did the RIAA do? "The intimidation included attempts to contact Kylee directly. A woman claiming to be Kylee's grandmother called the girl's former elementary school inquiring about her attendance..." There's probably more but they just don't know about it. It reminds me of the time that the MPAA asked for a bill not to be passed because they needed to commit more fraud, of course in the name of protecting copyright (yeah right...that was funny)...

Anyways the bill barred investigators, which clearly the RIAA and the MPAA are not--"from making ‘false, fictitious or fraudulent’ statements or representations to obtain private information about an individual, including telephone calling records, Social Security numbers and financial information."

...and what is it that they are doing here?

In this case, "representations to obtain private information about an individual" and "making ‘false, fictitious or fraudulent’ statements" (when don't they do this?).

I'm more than sure they continued to do the other ones listed but like I said before they just don't know about it.

However the mother has filed a suit against the RIAA--hooray!

So that's good but I laugh at the statement by Jonathan Lamy, a spokesman for the RIAA that "respectfully declined to comment on the specifics" of the case, said

...he was respectful? Oh, now I know he's lying

He said he:

"...defended the recording industry's overall strategy to combat illegal file-sharing..." (emphasis mine)

Okay, hold on so he agrees with the interrogating of 10 yr olds and the intimidation of their families in order to extort large sums of money under the pretext of 'illegal' filesharing and copyright 'infringement'?

Yeah he does agree--he did say, "overall strategy to combat illegal file-sharing.." (emphasis mine)

Let's keep going:

"...which he said has stolen billions in revenues in the past few years. After taking on the Internet businesses that made it easy to copy music for free and mounting an education campaign, the industry was still losing lots of money, Lamy said" (emphasis mine)

There he goes again--lying...

What he doesn't tell you is, that 'billions' that they're claiming they've lost are more than just a couple billion, they're more than the GDP of France--actually they money they want not even Bill Gates has that amount. Did I mention that the amount I'm talking about is for a month of so called 'piracy'....

He says, "...in revenues in the past few years" --so the money he's talking about is 6 times more than the World's GDP because on one month of piracy with the $150,000 per infringment penalty is $11,440,939,650,000--more than the GDP of France--the GDP of the world is only 44,433,002 so 4 months of piracy is more money than the World actually has...uh, yeah so they're crazy.

They're blaming piracy for everything that has happened to them and not just in the past few years as they state--so again he's lying.

One thing he's not lying about, which is the thing to look at is this, "the industry was still losing lots of money" even with all their so called achievements--all of them illegal though, no doubt about it, stringing multiple counts of felonies, that they in spite of all their illegal efforts still are losing lots of money--why? Because the 'piracy' that they're trying to stop has nothing to do with their losses it has to do with the fact that they focus too much on racking up felonies, extorting, intimidating and interrogating 10 yr olds and their families and not what they should be doing...

They're stlll selling horses while everybody has cars and they're all mad because they don't sell that much horses anymore...

I'll say it again the RIAA and the MPAA need to be put on trial.

Hooray, finally someone puts the dots together...

"As someone who lived under communism for most of his life, I feel obliged to say that I see the biggest threat to freedom, democracy, the market economy and prosperity now in ambitious environmentalism, not in communism. This ideology wants to replace the free and spontaneous evolution of mankind by a sort of central (now global) planning." (emphasis mine)



That was Václav Klaus, President of the Czech Republic saying in essence that global warming, that is "ambitious environmentalism" is like communism--that it is akin to the effects that communism has had on people--that it is worst than communism.

Can we give him an award? :-D

Oh, but that's not all he said--he gets better:

"The environmentalists ask for immediate political action because they do not believe in the long-term positive impact of economic growth and ignore both the technological progress that future generations will undoubtedly enjoy, and the proven fact that the higher the wealth of society, the higher is the quality of the environment. They are Malthusian pessimists" (emphasis mine)

Oh but what he says next is genius:

"The scientists should help us and take into consideration the political effects of their scientific opinions. They have an obligation to declare their political and value assumptions and how much they have affected their selection and interpretation of scientific evidence." (emphasis mine)

It's just fabulous and so true what he is stating--these Scientists' beliefs have clouded their judgement on scientific evidence.

He goes on to say something that I was taught in school but apparently Al Gore wasn't (:-P)--that:

"Every child is taught at school about temperature variations, about the ice ages, about the much warmer climate in the Middle Ages."

It's a very nice informative piece--very well written and very well put.

Because seriously if enviormentalist would have their way we would all be vegetarians--because "...nearly one-fifth of all global warming-causing emissions come from animal agriculture."

So in their heads it's, "...bye bye animals we're going to have to kill you because you are making global warming worst..."

Oh, geez, let's not even bring PETA over here.

Next thing you know it these enviormentalist are just going to ask people to die to stop " Global Warming."

No, you know let's just kill everything on earth, I mean seeing the biological role that CO2 has that be the only way to slove this global warming--we'd just have to kill all the organisms that have CO2 as an end product...

Oh no wait that's too drastic right?

I have a better one, since an average person's respiration generates approximately 450 liters of carbon dioxide per day let's have all the preaching enviormentalists, the supporting scientists, the supporting politicians, and all the rest of the global warming people just not exhale--just let them hold their breath for a couple of days--how about a couple of years and then we won't actually have to deal with "global warming" because the "global warming" people will be gone and we will have cut the output of CO2 output a significant amount...

Well, at least that was what Al Gore told me---hahahaha, lol :-P

I'm joking about the Al Gore telling me this--that's all I'm joking about but like I said according the enviormentalist that would be an adequate remedy for global warming--can you see now how why Václav Klaus states that: "...the biggest threat to freedom, democracy, the market economy and prosperity now in ambitious environmentalism, not in communism"...?

Global Warming Is Worst Than Communism--We had a Cold War now we're having a Warm War...

Global Warming is the new Communism.

I couldn't have said it better myself.

"Terrorism is...whatever they want it to be..."

Shannon Wheeler hit it right on the nail with this segement of his strip "Too Much Coffee Man"

It humorus yes I agree but the reality is that the above is reality.

I'm surprised, for once, that the MPAA or the RIAA have not yet made this ignorant statement, as has Håkan Roswall who is prosecuting The Pirate Bay whom likened them to terrorist--in particular to the IRA and the IRA's armed forces.

So in essence those whom are members of The Pirate Bay--who download/upload torrents to/from The Pirate Bay are in one way or another 'terrorists'--or at least accomplices to 'terrorism'...

Those of us here in the US should already know that being complacent makes us an accomplice to terrorism--and now it appears that a certain Prosecutor in Sweden is alluding, in essence, that BitTorrent users, at least those whom use The Pirate Bay as of now, are 'terrorist' or accomplices to 'terrorism'.

This ladies and gentlemen is a dream for the MPAA and the RIAA. If such terminology were to be pronounced here in the US--BitTorrent users would have upon them the 'special' provisions of The Patriot Act, Military Commissions Act of 2006, not to mention the DMCA if not more applied to them in thickest most dense degree possible, to fullest extent of the 'law'.

Which is why, again I say, it surprises me that the MPAA and the RIAA have not yet stated such an ignorant statement as the one that has been said--not that they haven't said ignorant statments in the past before--for truly the things they say are beyond the definition of ignorant.

However it is their handiwork. The prosecution that is being brought upon The Pirate Bay is in regards to the brief takedown of The Pirate Bay back in 2006 which was in fact brought on by the 'influencing' of the MPAA upon the Ministry of Justice in Sweden, which is illegal by the way--but then again what does the MPAA do that isn't illegal?

So there you go. Take heed--for it seems that BitTorrent users are in some ways 'terrorists'--at least in the eyes of Håkan Roswall.
