rjmwell: more notes on wiretapping, along with the transcript of Gen. Michael Hayden's address to the National Press Club.
from the Majikthise blog: "At a public appearance, Bush's pointman in the Office of National Intelligence was asked if the NSA was wiretapping Bush's political enemies. When Hayden dodged the question, the questioner repeated, "No, I asked, are you targeting us and people who politically oppose the Bush government, the Bush administration? Not a fishing net, but are you targeting specifically political opponents of the Bush administration?" Hayden looked at the questioner, and after a silence called on a different questioner."
(this link includes the Q&A section of the address, plus a mini-interview with the questioner referenced above; also video & audio of the address.)
on a lighter note, also via
rjmwell: Serenity, as told by muppets. *snerk* *giggle* (warning: contains spoilers.)
and from
simplykimberly: incredibly well-done tiny-people art. the "mowing kiwis" one is probably still my favorite, but then the site opens with the question "Who hasn't dreamed of driving into a chocolate mousse...?" it makes me feel better about the world that someone makes art like this.
and, unfortunately, it's just about bedtime for me again. dammit. stupid mornings.
