5. actually that is not far from the truth
I used to live in a building and there was a sick creep that lived there that had plenty of wires. I realized he was tapping my phone. One day I was talking to my friend on the phone and was telling her about something that had happened that was rather sad and all of a sudden I hear a third voice that says, "Awwwwwwwwww ....".

I turned this guy into the FCC numerous times and was IGNORED and deemed, "crazy". Crazy? Uh huh, yeah right.

I moved is what I did! :scared:

:kick:

13. I once lived in an apartment building where the phone terminal board was
in a hole in the wall in the laundry room--no cover, nothing.
Anybody with some alligator clips and headphones could listen in
(I assume--I never tried it).

8. LOL!
I'm sure he'd get his rocks off doing that, too. He wants total, complete secrecy for him and his people, but he wants the lives of the rest of us to be open books.

11. Actually I find it difficult that the prezdant would be able to say;
An entire sentence without cue cards and/or stuttering.

12. LOL
Stephanie Miller's show on the 19th had a really funny skit between Al Franken and Ted Kennedy and Bush and he does something like that. It's hilarious. If you get her podcast try to listen. LOL.

15. Even funnier is that they can't find that OBL guy but can track you
Edited on Tue Jan-03-06 04:33 PM by EVDebs
and your underware here in the states. A 6' Arab under kidney dialysis and they can't track his medical products but they can find my BVDs from Wal-Mart...it makes you wonder

Total Surveillance
http://www.motherjones.com/interview/2005/12/albrecht.html

Couple this insidious technology with purposely erroneous background checks

Who is checking the background checkers?
http://www.csmonitor.com/2005/1128/p13s02-wmgn.html

and you can have a system in place to deprive your enemies of their livelihoods. Want to terrorize Democrats and Greens ? Simply screw with their background check databases when they get fired (without cause, but we'll know it's their political views wink wink nod nod) and have ChoicePoint or some such sloppy enterprise information collection service -- who've already outsourced the data to Global Information Group Ltd in the Bahamas, where there is no legal recourse since it's all offshored/outsourced/privatized and plausibly-deniable.

Yes, it's a funny brave new world we're living in DUers.

20. Geez, you'd think that Mother Jones wouldn't have a website that wants
to set cookies, and not even tell you where they originate. (They only give you the IP address, so you don't know if they're from some assholes like advertising.com...that's pretty sleazy for a "progressive" publication.)

Hey, MJ, how about a little honesty and transparency and disclosure on your website?
