Paranoia Update


The "cable guy" just left. He insulted my poor little modem and unceremoniously unplugged and abducted it. I'm certain that modem euthanasia is part of his job description. Join me in a moment of silence....

While he was here, the cable guy used his fancy technical thingy to test my cable service. He went outside to "check the signals" which is cable speak for "jiggle the wires". After determining that the problem was with the "little modem that couldn't" he brought in the Big Brother Shiny Scary Modem. It is sleek and black and decidedly sinister. That's why I must warn you to XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX and XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX to protect yourself. Big Brother TW is watching...

Turn it over and look on the bottom. If there's a tag that says: "personally approved by Crawford Caligula", then you better hide. ;-)

Hi tomcat--speaking of Big Brother... did you read the Postal Reform Act that was just signed?? Yep, now the Executive branch has the authority to search SEALED mail...

That would be H.R. 6047, by the way...

I'm thinking of trying to find a Middle-Eastern penpal to exchange long pornographic letters with, give the administration something interesting to read.

Nice of you to think of their entertainment needs, not your mama. That tedious tracking of boring users needs a bright spot! Hey, maybe you'll get free cable!
