Need a break
.. from all that cooking, cleaning and general holiday anoyances.. so going to see the "Two Towers" today.. I'm probably the last remaining geek who hasn't seen it yet.
In other news..
"In balancing the rights of the public domain against commercial interests, I say that public officials need to favor the public domain," Eric Eldred
Government wants help spying on us:
In a set of preliminary guidelines released in September, the White House said high-tech companies that keep an eye on the Internet should combine their efforts and work with the government to better defend against computer viruses, worms and other cyberattacks.
Suuuure.. we all know how that will end..

Nope, you are definitely not the last geek who hasn't seen it :-)

I agree with Alex. I still haven't seen it. I'm probably going to see Star Trek next week, so don't expect to see it for at least 2 weeks...

Since I've been the pointy haired boss for awhile I suppose I don't qualify as a geek anymore... but I still haven't seen it either. Will see it more than a couple of times over next two weeks though.

Nope! I haven't seen it either. Perhaps new years (which strikes me as a very geeky way to do it).

hopefully this surveillance business will end with Dubya being run out of office on a rail. i think the warmongering, the erosion of civil liberties and a continuing recession is going to come back to bite him in the ass i think...

I hope you're right.. but what scares me is the "I have nothing to hide" and "It doesn't affect me, so it's okay" mentality that I see everywhere..
People fail to see that at some point they will notice how their rights have gone away.. but then it might be too late.

dont give up hope!!!
ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE (SPIRIT) AND HARD WORK (BODY) AND TO GO WITH THE FLOW (MIND) !!!
if you want instant karma, you have to work for it! good people should take matters into their own hands if they want to get something done right.(you gotta do it yourself!)
kasia, i havent seen it yet! i dont want to! its too creepy and wont do me anygood to watch it!!!
apok Shakur, get out of here you pompous windbag.

I have all the time in the world to watch TLOTR's
I failed out of school and i have the next 8 months to do whatever the heck i want!!!
I've got to admit its getting better, a little better all the time!!!
