Hello! Welcome! Don't steal anything!

Government acting like SOPA is already passed. Oh, And the Internet war.
This morning The U.S. Government arrested the owners of, and shut down ”Megaupload.com” One of the worlds largest filesharing sites on the grounds of criminally violating United states copyright laws. Now, Here’s the kicker, The website was Completely shutdown, without any due process, or trial. Now, since nobody else seems to be saying it, they always responded to files that were illegally uploaded. Even, in some cases being over zealous with their files deletions.
Now, don’t get me wrong, if they did it, they did it and they should be Dealt with accordingly. But the authority’s had no right to shut the site down without due process. Also, How did they get the chat logs? Now, Correct me if I’m wrong but don’t the police need permission to retrieve chat logs?
Plus, Megaupload Provided hosting for many legitimate files. For instance, The podcast for the site was hosted on megaupload. That wasn’t in violation of a copywrite law but, yet, I still lost my hosting capabilities. Megaupload was probably engaging in illicit activities. But the way the site was taken down, (Foreign servers as well I believe) with no warning is the essence of the SOPA laws. It’s just a small taste of whats to come if that bill passes.
Also, in retaliation for shutting down MegaUpload, The Hacker group Anonymous Hacked the DoJ, MIAA, MPAA, recordlabel EMI, French copyright authority HADOPI, The US Copyright Office, Federal Bureau of Investigation’s Site, And Universal Music’s Main website. All of them are, as of this post, Totally FUBARed. Over 5,600 DoSers(?) at once.
The Internet war is heating up. Hold on to your hats people.
Yours Faithfully until the internet dies,

A treatise on the Wonder of a particular online comic.
http://www.stringtheorycomic.com
Read it. I just fond this Comic and I loved it. Witty and hilarious. And theres a talking mutant cat. What not to love? I can’t say any more about except that its now On my reading list and it’s not going anywhere Except maybe higher on the list.
The drawing is of the main character and was taken off the authors Deviant Art profile, Located here. That is, The Picture. http://evilengine9.deviantart.com/art/looking-up-270655494?q=gallery%3Aevilengine9&qo=2
*EDIT*
Found a better picture.
Marmitilious! (Marmite + Delicious) Which, Is incorrect.
Several days ago I was in the midst of a moderately bad cold. My dad, Paradigm of kindness that he is, Gave me a big spoonful of marmite. Its funny, I’ve never felt the urge to projectile vomit without having the stomach flu before. -_- I don’t think your supposed to eat marmite by the spoonful. It’s extremely salty along with a slightly nutty flavor and it’s never coming in this house again. I hear Vegimite is supposed to be better so I might be convinced to try that but Marmite is black-listed. Well, After I finish this jar. (heh….heh….ha….haha……. bwahaHAHAHAAHAHAAA! *Sniff* No but really this jar of marmite is probably going to buried with me. )
I really should watch what that man tries to push on me. First the Elderberry crap, Then the Marmite. Let alone what he MADE me eat when I was a kid. *shudder*
Watch what you eat. For your own safety.

Time Stealers! Yay!
Empire: Total War. Its how the cool kids get out their world domination tendencies. If you’ve ever played any of the “Total War” series this pretty much the same just streamlined and with naval battles.
I swear, This game is incredible. I mean, I could get out all my benevolent Dictorial impulses. I mean, I don’t, (I’m a despotic son of a gun. ) But in theory, A person with a soul could.
In other news, I’m sick with the sniffles. My father, suggested that amongst other more common remedy’s (Mainly cough medicene) elderberry extract. Its this evil looking black liquid that suggests that its some kind of laxitive. Tastes like one too. But there’s no gag reflex so it’s alright with me. Not sure if it helped but it sure didn’t hurt either so, *shrug*
I’m just going to give the News a pass today. It all sucks. If your really curious just check out drudge report.
Mono,
Hol-l-ly crap. Such a Nice year already.
Well. Were doomed. Our president is illegally subverting our government right in front of us.
Sneaking controversial new laws over a holiday,doing the same thing over a normal weekday (like, for instance, today.) Check out drudge report for the latest.
Anyway, Other than that wonderful bit Of news Hopefully your holidays went without a hitch! The elder family gifted me a wonderful non-flesh eating computer full of wonderful distractions.
Oh, and the russians found a alien body. I’m really quite skeptical of this for two reason.
1. It looks like the widely accepted view of the proverbial “little Green Man” (Or LGM) Why doesn’t anyone ever find a Alien that looks totally different from the stereotypical Big head skinny arms thing.
2. They found it in russia. It’s not like their known for their trustworthyness. You know, Not really.
3. Wtf.
4. Wtf?
What do you guys think?
Tell me…..
So tell me, What do you guys think of the NYC (and other) protesters?
Banning Inhalers? Are they nuts?!
The EPA has just announced that People will need to switch to prescription alternatives which will not only cost more, But will almost certainly be less effective. http://www.weeklystandard.com/blogs/obama-administration-ban-asthma-inhalers-over-environmental-concerns_594113.html
This is why I am gladly awaiting the 2012 elections.

This site is now Anti-libtard, and Pro-Israel. If you don’t like it, You can get the hell off my lawn.
Well, they did it again. The libtards created a new site called “Attack Watch“
It’s supposed to Prove that O’Bugger is actually NOT killing the country one kick at a time. I have disproved them.
“The Obama administration has strengthened our borders while making our immigration system smart and fair.”
Pffff! sure, that why citizens are being shot.
“President Obama is a friend to Israel, despite unfounded claims to the contrary.”
Right, Thats why we pressured them to give up their own (literally) God-given land. Lets try doing that to Great Britain.
“President Obama believes in common sense gun control laws compatible with Second Amendment rights.”
Uh Huh. Thats why he was talking about banning gun shows and loading them with illegal venders to entrap honest citizens.
“President Obama was born in the United States and is an American citizen, period.”
Bullshit. Utter libtard bullshit. The birth certificate was obviously faked. It was reviewed by experts who also said it was faked. Period.
“By providing assistance to auto companies, President Obama saved more than a million jobs and prevented the American auto industry from collapsing.”
Oh man, And gave china how many more? I Live in close proximity to the car industry and I can tell you first hand, Its STILL not going well. And hasn’t gotten better for any length of time.
“The Affordable Care Act promotes quality, affordable health coverage for all Americans, regardless of the industry they work in or their union status.”
While forcing you to wait months for sub-standard and over priced care. Which, as a taxpayer, they will actually pay more due to the tax increase.
“President Obama is eliminating outdated regulations while strengthening commonsense standards to promote health and safety.”
Oh, Wow. And here I thought he was just golfing. Obviously this hasn’t gotten to where I’M at since its still as bad as ever. In fact, It got WORSE.
Oh oh! Don’t forget! He also won the nobel peace prize before he was done with his first year in orifice.
So, Yeah… I’m pissed. That whole site is spin-control.
