There's this dude called Maddox who writes what I think are the best rants anywhere. You'll recognize him if you see him again. Here's Maddox writing about i, Robot, a movie I refused to see. I aspire to the hieghts of slander which he is able to attain, but doubt I shall ever reach them. A few months back, I was browsing through Bash dot org. I stumbled across this gem of a quote. It's the transcript of a chat between Maddox and some other folks on the Internet. Seriously, mom, go read it. It's quite apt.
You see folks, my mother reads this page every day, even when I don't update it. She will sypathyze with the unspoken mother who saw Maddox's site and burst into tears. I think it was probably the posting about him eating Spotted Owl Tacos that sent her over the edge. My love affair with a certain ex-boss is what keeps my mother awake at nights.
Anyway, my mother worries and stresses over everything she reads here. But let me just say that the Jesse Sartain thing is taken care of, and I doubt that we shall be hearing from him again. The page stays up. I never thought I would be happy with something Congress did, but the Communiations Decncy Act, which passed in 1996 and was changed by the Supreme Court in 1997, protects ISP's (which I am) from being responsible for the things their users write and post. Now, if the people on my site were posting copyrighted material, well, then I'd be in trouble. But they're not. They're just venting.
So, despite my brash nature, I am not the most offensive person on the Internet, mom, and I'm not gonna get sued into a dark burrow somewhere. It is my opinion that certain parties do not want the page in question going anywhere near a court room. I know you probably have many ulcers by now, thanks to me and my philandering youth, mom, but rest assured, you can take sollace in the idea that you are not alone. It was your generation's job to fuck shit up. It's my generation's job to be an asshole and write about it on the Intenet.
Oh, and by the way, mom, anything you may hear about my orchestrating the white slave trade in Delaware are LIES! DAMN FOOL LIES!
