  this new strategy involved reading and analysis much like the schoolwork they had been previously absconding for the DDOS cause, the anonymous movement has hence lost in excess of 90% of their "brotherhood"

  News Cycle

  on So WikiLeaks Is Evil For Releasing Documents... But DynCorp Gets A Pass For Pimping Young Boys To Afghan Cops?
  Is Wikileaks factoring enough of a delay in the release of these cables to allow an appropriate news cycle for some of these revelations? I get this feeling that DynCorp will be forgotten within the next 2 releases by other stuff that at least merits discussion!

  on Bill Clinton Thinks He Can Ban Twitter, Facebook & Live Blogging From Event [Updated]
  Is it at all possible that he simply wants the courtesy of people paying attention to him, and more importantly the totality of his message? I think using social media DURING a presentation is asking for people to take it out of context - just a thought.

  Its all about the TRUE SCOTSMAN approach; I plan on wearing my family kilt without the need for undergarments. We'll see if they follow their procedures all the way until they "meet resistance" bwahahahaha.

  "The radiation is harmless, by the way. Youll get more x-rays from the sun than you will from this. Maybe a couple of hours in the sun, but nonetheless."
  
  As Scott Tenorman, the aforementioned King of Gingers, I would like to remind you that "a couple of hours in the sun" could very well constitute an ER visit for me and is certainly a tangible accretion to my accumulative lifetime radiation exposure!

  Actually I believe the TSA employees are prohibited from even wearing basic radiation badges! They definetly should not be standing for that, but luckily they don't cover that in the GED.
