My driver side window. Ugh.

SOPA

I just emailed Congress to urge them to oppose the Internet Blacklist Legislation, known as the PROTECT-IP Act in the Senate and the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) in the House. This legislation seeks to give the executive branch power to conduct slash-and-burn campaigns against websites that allegedly host – or even link to – content that infringes on intellectual property rights. That would “disappear” whole domain names, fundamentally undermining Internet security, and/or choke off their financial support. The Internet Blacklist Legislation puts more sites than ever at risk, effectively upending the DMCA safe harbors that have been crucial to the growth of Internet innovation and creativity.

Sadly, these short-sighted and dangerous bills won’t do much to stop online infringement – but they will jeopardize our ability to speak and read online with the kind of freedom we cherish in the offline world. Deep-pocketed Hollywood lobbyists are aggressively pushing to control and censor the open Internet, willing to sacrifice free speech and our Internet culture in hopes of controlling how people view their movies and products.

We need to stop this bill before it goes any further. Will you contact your representatives in Congress and urge them to oppose the Internet Blacklist Legislation? Visit: https://eff.org/r.C8A

Thank you for helping us defend privacy and free speech in the digital age.

Finding a penny in the street is supposed to be good luck on Friday the 13th, unless you get hit by a bus picking it up. Good one Joan…….. Ha

It’s #snowing. Starting to stick now.

How does it go from almost 70 to #snow in less then 24 hours? Ugh

I don’t agree with Santorums political views, but what’s wrong with a sweater vest?!?!? I’m wearing one right now! Don’t be jealous. Just saying.

Yuck. 20 degrees outside. Good reason to go back to #bed.
