Stuff
Things that have been going through my head today:
The new NJ EZ Pass "Data Share System" - this is in the works. I heard about it on the radio this morning. Tickets can be issued based on your speed from one EZ Pass to the next. It can also track criminals. It was suggested that it can be used towards the Amber Alert system. I'd rather drop .35 into a basket and go on my merry way without being tracked thankyouverymuch.
Super Nanny - Good God people. Please parent your children! I watched last night's episode and I was appalled. The four year old literally ran the house. How can that happen?
The Daily Show with Jon Stewart - My new boyfriend favorite show. Seriously, I really enjoy it. Stephen Colbert and Rob Corddry are just hysterical.
Is it ok to crave Girl Scout cookies for breakfast? I've got a box of trefoils calling my name. Mmmm - they go so well with tea.
Does anyone else just crack up at Spongebob? The rock anthem episode just makes me laugh and laugh...

1. I love Spongebob..I bought his movie for MYSELF.
2. I'll fight you for Jon Stewart or we could trade weekends or something :)
3. Super Nanny...doesn't that just make you feel like a great MOM after watching that show? Dude..I figure I'm doing A-OKAY compared to some of those people.
4. They say Amber Alert just so we'll go along with the program...I'd just as soon not get tracked either..did you hear that Big Brother?

The speed tracking was always a feature of the E-ZPass system. I believe it was never enforced before because the people who used to run it (W*rld.com or some other corporate criminal group) made such a mess of it that E-ZPass collected enough false fines to survive. Now that the system is more or less straightened out, they need the revenue from other places, like speeding tickets. That won't slow me down, though.

Good thing I switched to the PA EZ-Pass system :P
Oh, and girl scout cookies for breakfast, just one word: "Yes!" My favorite are the peanut butter sandwich cookies. MMMM. Must eat cookie now :)

The E-ZPass thing sounds like Big Brother and I definately don't like it.

i still say a belt and a wooden spoon worked 30 years ago and could still work now... add Super Nanny to those things and the world's a better place :)
