“Tubes” Senator Indicited for Lying to Feds
Today, Alaska Senator Ted “Series of Tubes” Stevens was indicited for lying to federal investagors. Apparently he falsified some information on finacial records.
Stories like this reaffirm my belief in karma.
Senator Stevens became famous for his explanation of how the internet works by comparing it to a series of tubes, but also explaining that the internet isn’t a big truck. Yes, it sounds just as retarded listening to him explaining it as I did… but I posted a youtube video of him trying to explain.
Now remember, he’s trying to convince people on why Net Neutrality shouldn’t be enforced. Because we all know it’s okay for ISPs to filter data off the internet we’re using… like Charter nuking Vonage connections, Comcast dropping Peer to Peer connections, and the like. Good riddance Ted.

Quiz: Ice Cream or MySpace Band?
A fantastic quiz I found on metalfloss.com. Are these ten items names of a canceled Ben & Jerry’s Ice Cream or a music band that is probably only known on MySpace?
No cheating…
My Result: 3 out of 10…
April Fools on the Internet… so last year.
Sorry to disappoint, but there’s not enough fodder on the web to post much. Thinkgeek.com has their annual April fools wares, but other than the typical fake news stories most of the offenders last year have been straight.
Google… I was expecting so much more this year.
