Today's Rant

"I'M SHOCKED COTTON..."
Chris Daughtry got voted out on American Idol last night. No one saw that coming. It looks as though my worst fears may be coming true... Taylor Hicks might win. I think all the men in America saved Katherine last night, cause i thought she was gone. I hope Elliot wins now, he's clearly the best singer and I think he deserves it.

Man, Lost is getting good, but how did Mr. Eko not get hurt when he fell from the rock ledge. I still don't get the show most of the time, but it is the best series on TV. if you've been sleeping on it, get Season 1 then you can get some of the back story.

Today, i just found out the Government has my phone records as well as the records of tens of millions of other Americans. I don't know why they'd want mine, but they do. Seems as though the phone companies AT&T, Verizon and Bellsouth gave the NSA access to their customers' records. This very well may be the largest database in the world. I guess the NSA wants a database of ever call ever made within the US border. This means they have detailed records of calls made to family members, co-workers, etc.
The President authorized the NSA to eavesdrop-without warrants-on international calls and international e-mails of "people" suspected of having links to terrorists when party to the communication is in the US. I guess the NSA decided that wasn't enough. This has happened because we as Americans have been to willing to give up our rights and freedom in exchange for "protection" from terrorism. Once you lose these rights, you never get them back. We've opened Pandora's Box. Now, any administration can spy on anyone it wants to, without recourse. Nothing this administration does surprises me anymore.

Well...Well... the Senate is going to try to legalize the 10-12 million illegal immigrants we have here in America. I think they will have a hard time getting a compromise from the House, at least i hope they would. I think any member of Congress who supports amnesty should be replaced in the next election. The #1 issue this year and heading into 2008 is immigration. The person that becomes President will be the person who either is the toughest on that issue or who at least "sounds" like they would be toughest on that issue. If our Congress votes for Amnesty, then we need to replace them with an American Congress.

How is that when you chew a Cinnaburst, that you can chew the paper with it? I know the paper has flavor crystals, but the paper just chews right up with the gum. That's just Crazy.
