Good morning, all! I am up early for another round of the McGlinnventory this morning. The only unhappy part of this is that it appears to be a downpour outside. Before I leave, I'll put my laundry together so that I can possibly do it this aftwernoon when I get back. It all depends on the rain. If not, I'll wait till tomorrow morning, but I have to finish it tomorrow; I've got five days in the recording studio after that and I'm running out of underwear.
BK, elbows bleed and bones break, so you might have cracked or broken a bone in the fall. See your doctor, The interview is wonderful! None of your reservations over the videotaping show at all. It's very smooth and you're very charming, although I did keep waiting for "what is it? Fish?"
DR Jeanne, the two students responsible for Tyler Clementi's suicide can be charged with invasion of privacy and i suspect they could be sued by his family for wrongful death. The laws need to catch up with the cyber age, because so many computer crimes - from illegal posting of copyrighted materials to cyber bullying and harrassment - seem to let the offenders off easy. The kid who posted the last Harry Potter book before its publication date got off with a slap on the wrist, and there was a a couple of years ago on one of the chat groups a site for musical theatre scores where people were passing around illegal pdf downloads of vocal scores copyrighted by R&H, Tams-Witmark, MTI, Samel French and others along with published music still under copyright; there's a person on eBay currently selling a CD containing all of these scores. It's all illegal.
Parents will soon need to teach their children about computer laws concerning such things as ownership vs owning a copy of something, public domain vs copyright, and other things. I think we're lucky these days to find parents teaching their children about right, wrong, manners, courtesy, and morality. The only thing bigots and morons are teaching their children is how to continue their cause, as flaming gaper Andrew Shirvell is doing so well. Since I'm not a lawyer, DR cillaliz would be much more informed than I about all of this.
Speaking of Shirvell, DR cillaliz, Mike Cox, the attorney general of Michigan appears to be protecting Shirvell because Cox is the first Republican attorney general in years and Shirvell is part of his conservative clique and supporters. I guess there are a lot of fools in Michigan.
Enough soapbox. I need coffee.
