One day, a little boy wrote to Santa Clause, “Please send me a sister.”
Santa Clause wrote him back, “Ok, send me your mother.”
Merry Christmas

Night of the living dead
The time is 11:52pm, do you know where your children are?
In my parents’ case, at least one is standing in line at Walmart. Yay. Not nearly as busy as it might have been earlier today, but still busy — To Walmart’s credit, they’ve managed to borrow enough people from the seventh circle of hell to keep the checkouts open (sixth circle of hell, as it turns out)
Traditionally Walmart was only open 24 hours a day around Christmas, but it sounds like some locations are going 24/7 permanently… I’m not sure if that’s good or bad, or just a sign of a lot of damned people getting jobs at Walmart these days.
Oh yeah? Well why don’t you go Google yourself?
Googling Oneself Is More Popular says Wired…
In a report Sunday, the Pew Internet and American Life Project said 47 percent of U.S. adult Internet users have looked for information about themselves through Google or another search engine.
Also interesting in the article, it mentions
Pew also found that teens were more likely than adults to restrict who can see their profiles at an online hangout like Facebook or News Corp.’s MySpace, contrary to conventional wisdom.
That’s not a bad thing, in my books. However, I think the article misunderstands why,
“Teens are more comfortable with the applications in some ways, (but) I also think they have their parents and teachers telling them to be very careful about what they post and who they share it with,” Madden said.
I wonder if this isn’t less due to the possible risk of strangers identifying them, and more due to teachers, parents, and simply a matter of clique behaviour. Remember, teenagers are immortal, so internet perverts are something that happens to someone else.
