SLIGHTLY ALARMING: Accepted ten bucks from a diner to get them a better table? Live in Oregon? You're a terrorist, sir:
OREGON'S SENATE Bill 742, section 19, chapter 666 defines the "unlawful labeling of a sound recording" as terrorism and would make it punishable by a minimum life sentence of 25 years in prison without parole. After 25 years (if they're fortunate) the state might allow them to find "employment at a forest or work camp" or other similar "post prison supervision".
Other acts described as terrorism include (but are not limited to):
* Blocking traffic
* School walkouts
* Computer crime
* Accepting a bribe
* Theft and Burglary
* Unauthorized use of a vehicle
* Unlawful labeling of a videotape
* Unlawful recording of a live performance
* Negotiating a bad check
* Dogfighting
* Delivery of an imitation controlled substance
* Producing fake IDs
* Using another's driver's license
* Drunk driving
* Selling cigarettes to a minor
And the state only has to come up with two "witnesses". Now might be the time for citizens of Oregon to call their Senators.

THIS IS WHAT THEY GET THEM ON?: With all the things you could moan at Fox News about, they get them on undue prominence of a sauce company you can't buy in the UK?

ARGUMENTS IN FAVOUR OF ID CARDS CONSIDERED: Apparently, they'll stop benefit fraud.
Since most benefit fraud is, we're told, carried out by people signing on and still working cash in hand, how's having a card with their retina drawn on it going to help? "Sorry, Pal, I can't give you two days labouring and then pay you in old tenners, as you've got an ID card..."
DEEP IN THE SHADOWS CABINET: Of course Howard has had to have people double-up their portfolios for his shadow cabinet - he's got such thinly spread talent, what else can he do?
INTERACT WITH SOMETHING OF THE NIGHT: In a bid to try and do something different than just a standard blog, you can actually join and react and agree and disagree and, ooh, a million things by joining the email version: either visit the website or send an email to join. It may all fall flat on its arse, or it might fly. But it'll be fun trying.
