Tiiiiiired.
Feb. 4th, 2008 01:54 amHuh. So very close. But at the end, when all the nation’s fate was on the line, Mega Manning did it. The Michigan Man does not get a perfect run, nor does Doctor Football. Right at the end, it was a low-scoring game, and the Giants won. Several of our field correspondents whooped in joy and lit cigars, believing that the end of the world had just been averted. There’s always a next time, though. Next time...
Quickly before going to bed, then, a small amount of material that will fend off those looking for a link fix. Ready, go.
LJ has added on a new feature - your public posts may be crawled for the "Explore" area and exposed to the wider LJ world at large. Unless, of course, you opt-out. If you didn’t know it was there, though, it would be very tough to opt-out. So now you know.
Excellent example of juxtaposition. Even if The Pirate Bay is being charged with assisting in copyright infringement.
For those who are participating in their elections and caucuses this coming Tuesday,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
bradhicks offers up several reasons why not to make Senator Clinton the Democratic nominee.
Listmania: Top Ten Things Environmentalists Need To Learn, apparently, so that they can target campaigns where they will do good and achieve change. More lists in Woldometers which track various important statistical numbers.
Microsoft is putting up a bid to buy Yahoo!. $4.6 billion USD. Interesting. Might mean that yet another service gets absorbed by the M$ giant.
More security theater - Now DHS wants all the gadgetry to be inspected to be sure that it isn't some sort of explosive, so everything out of the bag.
Next to last, oil companies post record profits, thanks to us, the consumers, and the way the supply has fluctuated in price. It really sucks being held over a barrel like that.
And last - bills passed by anti-choicers, including one in Indiana that permits pharmacists to shirk their duties if they believe that a medically-ordered prescription will be used for abortion or suicide, another in Indiana that requires physicians to tell anyone looking for an abortion that life begins at conception and that fetuses feel pain, although it’s been weasel-worded so that it doesn’t look like that, another duty-shirking bill in Pennsylvania, and one in South Dakota that requires a woman to view a sonogram before getting an abortion, although she can waive the sonogram with a signed statement. *headdesk* all around, ladies and gentlemen.
Anyway, bed.
