"It's no joke. Last Thursday, President Bush signed into law a prohibition on posting annoying Web messages or sending annoying e-mail messages without disclosing your true identity. "

Oh man, I'm going straight to jail.

That's funny.

It's times like this I know that everything is OK in the good ol US of A. Cuz we have time to create and pass laws like this.

Actually, it is "internets" per the prez.

In a couple of years, we will have to have 3 pages of disclaimers on every post.

The future has not been written. There is no fate but what we make for ourselves. I wish I could believe that. My name is JohnnyMack, they tried to murder me before I was born, when I was 13 they tried again. Machines from the future. Terminators. All my life the South Oval told me the storm was coming...

Wow, it won't be long before the days of mascots anonymously embarrassing people by fake-high-fiving them will be gone.
