tough love

Monday, March 31st, 2003

one game in the books. The Sox lost. Let the “love” begin.
Boston is so tough on the Sox when they lose…it’s been one day and the “Closer-by-Committee” is already a “four-letter word”.

continuously discrete…

Monday, March 31st, 2003

NBC, MSNBC terminate Arnett — it’s going to suck to be this guy when he’s back stateside.
I’m sure they already have his phones tapped, and a shadow on all of his family members…not that our government does that sort of thing…if they did, I mean…

media = GPS

Monday, March 31st, 2003

so…when you’re a country (Iraq) that’s not allowed certain military technologies, like GPS-jammers, radar, etc. (not allowed…we all have to play by the rules here…the rules are just different for us), how are you expected to fight the enemy? Just turn to the U.S. media:
