ita, what kind of car do you have? A Jetta VR6?
That's what she has. I just listened to an enormous backload of natter and it came up.
Tact is just not saying true stuff. I'll pass.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Last night, I drag-raced a woman in a Jetta VR6. I was surprised at how fast it was - I had to floor the accelerator to keep even with her.

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

Yep. I have the Passatt VR6, and man, can that thing move.
Wait, you were drag-racing?

Sorta'. On Ashland Ave, we were both at the stoplight and we both took off when the light turned green. Then we both stopped accelerating when we hit about 45mph.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That's not for me! I'm down by you, Tom.
I am such a dope. I stayed up too late last night for no apparent reason, knowing that I would be tired and cranky this morning, and sure enough -- tired and cranky!

That damned VR6 thing is quite addictive.

Has anyone posted this?
Ted Stevens on why he opposes net neutrality:
There's one company now you can sign up and you can get a movie delivered to your house daily by delivery service. Okay. And currently it comes to your house, it gets put in the mail box when you get home and you change your order but you pay for that, right.
But this service isn't going to go through the interent and what you do is you just go to a place on the internet and you order your movie and guess what you can order ten of them delivered to you and the delivery charge is free.
Ten of them streaming across that internet and what happens to your own personal internet?
I just the other day got, an internet was sent by my staff at 10 o'clock in the morning on Friday and I just got it yesterday. Why?
Because it got tangled up with all these things going on the internet commercially [...]
The regulatory approach is wrong. Your approach is regulatory in the sense that it says "No one can charge anyone for massively invading this world of the internet". No, I'm not finished. I want people to understand my position, I'm not going to take a lot of time. [?]
They want to deliver vast amounts of information over the internet. And again, the internet is not something you just dump something on. It's not a truck.
It's a series of tubes.
And if you don't understand those tubes can be filled and if they are filled, when you put your message in, it gets in line and its going to be delayed by anyone that puts into that tube enormous amounts of material, enormous amounts of material.
It's funny except for him being in charge of the committee in charge of any legislation concerning the Internet.
