Your rights, anti-piracy and you
I’ve been holding this video for over a week now. I don’t think that Eric realizes that he is responsible for me finding this gem, but this is a lecture we all need to hear if not once a day, once a week. If we don’t act soon, our rights are going to be violated and we will be at the mercy of some nameless, cold-hearted corporation suing us for copyright infringement when we should be suing for non-full plain English disclosure and insane licensing agreements.
The irony of it all is that I have a very special post about music for tomorrow morning before I take off for the holiday.
Enjoy!
Question:
If Represenative Strangle gets his draft, should we include females in the draft since the Armed Services have been intergrated?

Answer: Pray tell, why wouldn’t we? Womenfolk have been battling the institution for 40 years now trying to be fully equal. Why would you even suggest they should back down now, you misogynist little prick?

I saw that you sent the link to the Theologian about the WBC protest.
I know a lot of people are going on Friday to try and run them off, are you coming along?
I figured as much, I mean, this girl was shot in the face at 15, these are not the best people to anger.
However, a lot of other people, Lee alum and such who didn’t even really know her are going to counter demostrate.
Women can be drafted as nurses and control room personnel but the battle field i believe is the mans place. Killing the innocent is man’s work.
Hello
Back again.
Joe got a pint (whiskey) and gave me some, so I made hot toddy’s for Joe and myself. They taste worst as I get toward the bottom of the mug… yick.
Watered it down pretty good, but… I’m buzzed. Haha.
The recipe & variations etc… is on my site.
if women do get drafted im packing my bags and leaving, i mean i wouldnt mind being a nurse but hell if im going to kill someone.
