What is it with the current Bush Administration?  why the power grab?  They're power grabbing our fourth and first admendment rights... why are people just rolling over and giving these up without much of a fight?  Because its being done it in the name of "Terrorism"?  At the cost of what?  What it comes down to, is everyone in the US is being assumed to be a terrorist, and your leaving it upto the government to say your not... Whatever happened to innocent untill proven guilty?  or does that not fly anymore either?  You wouldn't believe how much this whole thing irritates me.  Kerry on X96's Radio from Hell has recently stated that hes giving up on politics because hes fustrated that he can't do anything about it... I often feel the exact same way... Because of both politics, and technology issues relating to politics... both make me extremely fustrated, and I don't feel like I can do anything about it.

I just wanted to vent for a second...


Got a new phone!

After being at my new job for more than a month (they still haven't gotten me a phone), Elissa and I went out and added a line to her current plan and I got a new phone out of the deal :)  Its freaking awesome!  I got the Sony Ericsson w600i.  It has a builtin MP3 player with 256MB Flash storage, a 1.3MB camera and best of all a FM tuner!  It also has a slot for sony media sticks so I can add more storage at anytime.  I love it, who ever came up with the idea of having a phone/mp3 player/fm tuner in one, is a freaking genious.  My next question is if it has a voice recorder as well... that would completly round out the package deal.  Anyway I'll try to remember to take more pictures now, since we have unlimted voice and photo messages... but only 1000 text... (seems dumb to me that you can get unlimited photo messages, but text they charge for... as the images are going to use more bandwidth than text ever could.... but what do I know :) )

I'll look into seeing if theres a way I could upload the photos I take with it to the web page here could be kinda fun :)
