Here’s the deal. I KNOW this is a historic Inauguration in two weeks. However, I’m wrasslin’ with that debbil unemployment, and I will not be heading to DC on January 20th for the purpose of making fun of Der Drumpf’s coronation. However, I have rewritten my play HOW TO STOP THE EMPIRE WHILE KEEPING YOUR […]

If a tree falls in the forest and no one hears it, does it get on the CNN ticker? You might know the name Marni Halasa–she’s been featured in news stories about Occupy Wall Street and her protest tactics have been written about in the NY Times. I’ve interviewed her twice on radio.

So… FaceBook and Google were being disingenuous when they said the government doesn’t have ‘direct access’ to their servers. “The government doesn’t have “direct access” to Facebook and Google servers, but there is a process in place so the NSA can request the information, and there’s a special, secure place for them to retrieve that […]

Why do Conservatives use Facebook?

I admit it–I’m a Facebook junkie. But lately, my enthusiasm has dropped a good deal because I’m not hearing from a lot of people.
