In case you need something to blog about, check out this new bill
being proposed for congress:
http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/z?c110:H.R.808:
Have fun with this one. Department of Peace and Nonviolence
indeed.
Of course it's author is the same guy who just proposed a new
bill to ban all handguns.
I actually came across this a few weeks ago and thought about blogging it
then, but then came to my senses and realized that this has no way of ever
passing both Houses and the President's desk.
Well, until the Democrats have a super majority over both Houses
anyway (or both Houses and the Presidency).
Then again … given President Bush's lack of vetos …
Naahhhhh. This won't pass. This is too silly, even for us.
You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go
ahead, I won't bite. I promise.
The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or
entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent
links to that entry only. The format for the links are
simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are
interested in, say 2000/08/01,
so that would make the final URL:
https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01
You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day
portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.
You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's
intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the
page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in
using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If
you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that
important.
