Analog-Theater 2.0

So, it has been brought to my attention that I may have been a bit lax in posting.  I know, I know, quality before quantity and what not, but I should have been a bit more active in getting content up here and maintaining the balance.

So, what to talk about today?  Well, first the federal government has finally taken the thirty-third step tword forming the new American Police State as dreamt up by our wonderful friends in DC.  The new FISA compromise has officially been passed and George the I will be signing it into law if they have not already.  So, what does this mean to you?  Well basically nothing, just don’t talk about anything personal on the phone as the wonderful people at the warm and fuzzy NSA, FBI, and NSA no longer have to secure warrants from a secret court in order to listen in on your calls, no wait, they didn’t need them before either did they?  Why you ask?  Well His lordship said so, and under the comprise that was just passed, no one can be held accountable if they can show proof that they had been asked nicely.

Now, what are the broader ramifications?  Well, first it showed that our friend Mr. Obama can change sides and support things that should honestly be unpalatable to him.  Hillary Clinton can change and vote correctly after failing to even show up the first time this came up, and John McCain can talk a lot, but when it comes time to vote on one of the most important issues of the year he doesn’t even turn up to vote.

Now on a lighter note, guess what!  A&W has figured out how to make a Root Beer Float soda!  It is a fantastic.

In technology news T-Mobile has been kind enought to start offering a $10 a month phone service, this VOIP service is only available to folks on family plans and counts as one of the 5 lines.  So if you are like me and have all 5 lines filled don’t even ask.  For anyone else I would highly recommend checking it out, $10 a month vs. $50 is not a bad deal.

That is all for now, but I am sure I have a lot more to talk about later:)
