Technology and Society by Neil Postman
Ah, love, let us be true
To one another! for the world, which seems
To lie before us like a land of dreams,
So various, so beautiful, so new,
Hath really neither joy, nor love, nor light,
Nor certitude, nor peace, nor help for pain;
And we are here as on a darkling plain
Swept with confused alarms of struggle and flight,
Where ignorant armies clash by night.

YouTube Ordered to Give Complete User Logs to Viacom (Sift Talk Post)
In fact, maybe it's time for NO copyrighted stuff on youtube and on the sift, maybe it's time for only independent clips.

No TV stuff, no Holywood movie clips, just independent media under the creative commons licence.

Independent news, films, comedy, animation, games.

Let them keep their copyrighted ad-riddled dumbed-down crap for cable TV and watch them slowly die.

Regina Spektor – US
I love Regina... her music is fantastic, and then add to that the fact that she is gorgeous... what a package.

It's actually something I've thought about a bit in the past. We have these great singer songwriting women who are also gorgeous (Regina, Tori Amos, Jewell, Fiona Apple, Clare Bowditch etc. etc.).

The odds of getting great voice, great playing, great songwriting AND beauty in the one package has to be pretty slim. As such I do wonder how many women with the first three qualities are overlooked because they don't have the last?

Men don't get this as much, there are plenty of ugly male singer/songwriters (yes, horrible double standards).

Bye Bye TV (Blog Entry by swampgirl)
^ Crazy name for a game (30 years ago).

From the Urban Dictionary
"Smear the Queer" is a childhood game of tag involving an object that is held by the "it" kid until he is tackled and forced to give it up.
"Smear the Queer" How it Works: The kid who has the ball (or stick, or balled up shirt, or whatever object is used) is "it" and therefore the "queer". The rest of the kids chase the "it" kid down until he is tackled (usually in a dog pile fashion). The caught kid then tosses the object away where the other kids gather around it and wait to see who has the guts to pick it up and start running. There is a big advantage to being quick on the pickup so as to get a better running start. There are no scores and no one "wins". It is a childhood game of bravado designed to blow off boyhood energy.

Note #1: I use the masculine to describe the participants because I have yet to meet a woman who's played this game.

Note #2: The use of the word "queer" is not homophobic in this game. It's used as catchy name to describe the game. The "queer" in this sense is just the kid who's it. Because it's completely voluntary to be the "queer", and being the "queer" requires a certain amount of bravery, it is not used in the derogatory in this this particular usage.

Mean old man confronts skater punk
I want to be on the side of the skaters but I can't do it this time. They are confirming stereotypes in a bad way. It was interesting to watch, though, and consider the different scenarios. Thanks for posting.
