Dear IT guys next door,

You know how you can hear me typing because we have a wall that is a metal panel and thus no sound insulation?

I can hear you playing stupid American Idol clips.

Please stop.

I just got an email from MoveOn.org asking me to sign a petition to prevent AOL from starting to charge an email tax.

Is this for real? Or did MoveOn.org get suckered by the same stupid spam that's been going around forever. Do they not have anybody at MoveOn who knows how to check Snopes?

I just read a wonderful post about using the men's room at the downtown Borders in Chicago. The blogger's husband whom she's quoting is Scots, and she does a good job reproducing his accent.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

It was reported that AOL and Yahoo are thinking of an email tax. Not sure what the timeline or feasibility is.

I believe it's an email tax for business email. Sort of like official spam.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Why is it so difficult for me to call a painter and get my apartment painted?
