Protesters arrested near Dubya’s Ranch

Wednesday, November 23rd, 2005 at 5:44 pm

In an article from Reuters, a group of war protestors were arrested for camping and parking on roads near Bush’s ranch.

From the article:

The demonstration was timed to coincide with Bush’s break at his 1,600-acre spread and the arrival of the accompanying White House media entourage.
McLennan County sheriff’s deputies warned the protesters — who had pitched tents by the roadside — and then arrested them for trespassing

What in the hell happened to our basic civil liberties? Free Speech, and the Right to Protest without fear of punishment?

Automattic (.com)

Friday, November 18th, 2005 at 4:44 pm

While snooping around the Automattic website, I ran across two URLs that may be of some importance. But, as always, only if you’re interested.

The first, which is automattic.com/wordpress/ provides a nice “403 Forbidden” message.
My thoughts are now revolving around another service for Wordpress. How cool would that be? :)

The second, automattic.com/spam/ provides large bold face letters for the name of the site, or perhaps the name of a program? “Automattic Spam Stopper” is what’s displayed.

One can only guess what this website will be about. We’ll just have to wait until Matt makes it’s debut.

Quote of the Day?

Monday, November 14th, 2005 at 12:29 pm

I may do something a bit different, by offering up a Quote of the Day..

Well, in any case, here’s today’s QOTD.

Normal is getting dressed in clothes that you buy for work and driving through traffic in a car that you are still paying for - in order to get to the job you need to pay for the clothes and the car, and the house you leave vacant all day so you can afford to live in it. — Ellen Goodman
