Feds After Google Data
Posted in Business, Politics, News, People, Links, Tech News, General on Jan 27th, 2006
Yesterday, I was reading an article at MercuryNews.com about the government after Googles search records, and found it really interesting.

The move is part of a government effort to revive an Internet […]
Never drink to much, you just don’t know how you can act. Worse than that, if you pass out… you just dont know what people can do to you….

refugee,
trying to refrain,
from falling victim,

refugee, weeps.
and his family huddles scared, alone,
continuing their climb,
from the depths of futility.
