Friend's New Blog

Just a real quick note here. I know that I haven't been updating my Loopness blog enough lately. I'm always so busy and behind it seems. I'll keep trying to get back and post more though. It's just that my other blogs consume so much of my time these days. Then when you add in the legal battle and trying to find time for friends and family, it just seems like there are never enough hours in a day and even if there were I couldn't stay up that long.

So an old college buddy of mine Bennie Fred started a blog just the other day and he was telling me about it. He really likes that FTA stuff and decided to blog about it some. FTA is short for Free To Air. FTA is basically a satellite system that allows you to receive satellite TV signals from major companies like ABC, CBS, and NBC. These companies put out the signals for free "over the air", and thus you get the Free To Air system. It's pretty cool stuff. Check out Future FTA Receivers World for more information on the systems and what you can do with them. It's a new site, but there will be more information as time moves on.

I'll try to get back around and talk a bit more. I hope to get my head above water sometime soon :)

BE good all...

Report: Bush surveillance program was massive - Yahoo! News

I knew it. OK, I didn't KNOW it, but I had one of those gut feelings that you get when you suspect someone or some entity is lying to you. In this case the Bush administration just decided that they knew better than everybody else - including our founding fathers - when they circumvented the law to fit their desires.

Will anyone do anything about it? I mean something other than put a committee together to talk about it. I mean hold someone responsible. I would feel better if there was at least a scapegoat. Where is Ollie North when you need him? Apparently, this Bush administration didn't have anyone with that much character and backbone. Someone to stand up and say I take responsibility for this. Shoot, the Ex-Vice President even feels he is above the law and never goes to court when he is subpoenaed. Which is fine, except, if you or I did that we would go to jail for contempt. Why are there two sets of laws in this country - one for the rich and powerful and one for the rest of us? I thought there was something about "of the people, by the people, for the people...". I guess that we need a Clinton to help us with the definition of "people"...
