    US Census is Getting Personal

    Not everyone has a SS number. You only need one if you're going to work. There's a little profession called surveying.

    Aren't NHS hospitals their equivalent of our current health dept clinics? If so whats the diff? Ever been to one? Think DMV. Here's a hint, they aren't the friendliest.

    Plane crashes into building -Texas

    What the fuck does party affiliation have to do with some crazy selfish dingbat who hated the IRS and the government? :confused: Hopefully he's the only one who never departed the building. I feel sorry for his wife and daughter. Done. If only McVeigh & Co. would have been so accurate...

    Enemies Of Free Speech Call For Internet Licensing

    Even if there wasn't, lets face it: Eastern European police forces aren't prioritized to fight and take down a bunch of nobodies with a few servers in their basement *shrug*.

    Enemies Of Free Speech Call For Internet Licensing

    I would venture to guess the majority of illegal porn hosting is illegitimately hosted overseas. Licensing isn't going to phase the few sources, but only create headaches for lawful internet availability for the masses who have better things to do online.
