UF Student tasered at John Kerry Speech (via fozzymandias)

This is why I’ve always been against the trend to give these wannabe cops firearms. Tased for asking a question? Come on!

Not been up to much on the web these days, but I have been:

* swimming
* walking on the beach
* fishing
* eating
* sleeping
* taking photos
* reading

Having a great time except for the day I witnessed a drown victim being pulled from the surf right in back of the house.

Anyway, I’m trying to get back into my online life before heading off to Boston and Providence for a week next Friday.

Gone Fishing

I’m on my way to North Carolina in just a few short hours. Packing is nearly finished and the house cleaned out.

Unless I find some unsecured wi-fi, it might be a week before I re-appear on the intratwebs.

I’ve been busy signing up to several social networking applications. You can now find me on Pownce, Facebook, aNobii, and Spout. But I still love my tumblelog.

“Naturally, the common people don’t want war, but they can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. Tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and endangering the country. It works the same in every country.”

I’m having a play with Kevin Rose’s latest startup Pownce, and I have to say it’s pretty sweet. Email me if you want an invite and don’t have one yet.

Thanks Pete

It's not about stealing

This comic strip drives home a excelent case. Piracy would not be such a big issue if the marketplace worked in favor of consumers and artists rather than the labels.
