[•] Seven Concordes have been grounded after cracks were found in the wings. [•] The Yugoslavian Parliament has approved a law that will extends Milosevic’s term if reelected President. That sucks.

[•] The FBI says that since Carnivore only scans the “to” and “from” fields of a e-mail that it is perfectly safe and maintains privacy. [•] The Duh Study of The Day: Meditating can lower blood pressure. Yeah, relaxing tends to do that. [•] Senior citizen advocates are calling for more stringent nursing homes standards. [•] Harrison Ford will star in the next Indiana Jones installment! [•] China is trying to rescue 500 bears and put an end to bile farms. [•] Cat fish farmers can double profits by growing algae in the same tank. [•] Physicists have discovered a long theorized, but previously undetected subatomic particle. [•] A denial of service attack against cryptome.org has put the web site out of service. Did I mention that these attacks started after they published top secret intelligence papers? [•] Ad revenues are up in newspapers. Looks like the Net won’t kill print media (as expected). [•] Teenagers hanging out on the street are causing problem on Maybrook and Walden (Why should people be able to go outside? Can’t people lock their kids in the cellar? LOL). [•] Warwick’s unofficial soccer league is attracting players. [•] Beatings, robbings, stealing, and everything that makes The Times-Herald Record Briefs interesting. [•] The Arrested Rapper of The Day: Juvenile. [•] Kid Rock has to settle his custody rights with his ex-girlfriends over his child. [•] You can buy the limo in the Starsuckers Inc. video.

[•] Need I remind you that I love Azazel? I didn’t think so 🙂 [•] Red Raven got a manager’s position (congratulations). [•] Hoagie’s web page rules. [•] I jammed out with Kevin last night and went over some ideas. He has started telling people about this little project we dare call digitalflood.com™. That project currently called We Come In Peace can be described as (Kevin put it): a cat purring on Mars as an acoustic guitar plucks away. Weird, huh? So I guess if people don’t get it right now, there’s a damn good reason. I warn you– the new stuff is way out there. It definitely isn’t for the faint of heart or the poor of faith. However, I really think that what it can provide is a sense of where I stand and what I want to hear from a musician that no one right now is doing. If everything isn’t too foregone and hopefully we don’t make “bad” art then I believe that anyone who downloads our next MP3s will be happy. Need I say more?
