- Blue laws are falling - Whee!! Blue laws are annoying recognitions of religion. I love the Reverend's comment: "We saw the remaining liquor laws as a last vestige [of Sunday rest]. We see an unfortunate slippage into every day being the same." Can't keep control of the flock so you want the government to do ti for you? [Dec, 5 2003]
- Flat tax.. Again. - Is it just me or does The Heritage Foundation's analysis, sound like trickle down economics, that was tried and failed? [Dec, 5 2003]
- Italians Against mafia ad - PC, PC, PC.. I've seen this short, its funny. Its a humorous portrayal of the ITALIAN mafia, if they speak with an italian accent, should that be a surprise? [Dec, 5 2003]

- Contactless credit cards - These are like the badges we have at work. But one major question. What happens when you have two in your wallet and you swipe your whole wallet? Which one does it get? [Dec, 14 2003]

- Whitehouse's unethical legerdemain - The change in the title doesn't frustrate me as much as the robot.txt file does. We own those documents, not the Whitehouse, they're just the caretakers of them. [Dec, 15 2003]
- A look at Gore - An interesting look at Gore from a technologist's standpoint [Dec, 15 2003]

- Bush's comments on Saddam - Okay, yeah its the Brits reporting, but read these carefully. It seems like the verdict is being handed out before the trial. Bush is not the prosecutor putting Saddam on trial, but he's acting like it [Dec, 18 2003]
- A speculation on Saddam's trial - Okay, its defiantly liberal, but a view of what Saddam could bring up in a War Crimes trial. Intriguing. [Dec, 18 2003]
- Can Spam - Okay, I'ven't read the bill itself. (Okay I will read it soon.) But a good analysis on why the "Can" Spam bill will do just about nothing. [Dec, 18 2003]
- Worm's affect on Infrastructure
- I'll let this one speak for itself:
- Ten years ago our critical infrastructure was run by a series of specialized systems, both computerized and manual, on dedicated networks. Today, many of these computers have been replaced with standard mass-market computers connected via the Internet.
- The computer systems we use on our desktops are not reliable enough for critical applications.
- Neither is the Internet.

- Death takes a holiday - a man gets really drunk and lives, and dog survives euthanization. Death must be getting a bit sloppy with his work. [Dec, 22 2003]
- Another reason not to shop Walmart - While the whole entry is excellent, (read all the comments!) This comment is a reason why I dislike Walmart, they try to impose their moral values upon others, instead of offering the consumer actual choice. Excuse me, I'm an adult. I can think for myself. Thank you. [Dec, 23 2003]
