    I just posted a year's worth of location data willingly on the internet. Probably because it doesn't say anything that I haven't already told y'all. Also, it doesn't have the time component in image form.

    Hm, maybe not. Reviewers are saying that the narrator reading through the many tables in the book gets kind of mind numbing. Mayhap I'll look for it at the library instead.

    Okay guys, please advise:

    There's a bunch of anti-abortion people set up at walkway crossings throughout my campus today. Normally I wouldn't mind as a lot of annoying people tend to stand in those areas yelling about whatever cause they're trying to promote, but these guys have big posters with shock images of aborted fetuses everywhere. It's frankly completely tasteless and offensive.

    It really pissed me off, so I'm considering going to and trolling them.

    Here's what I was thinking:
    Write "FREE ABORTIONS" on a big poster and then go stand near them with a hanger. (Y/N)

    Other suggestions are welcome.

    That's dangerous, Winky. Who knows how mentally unstable this group can be.

    If you are actually offended due to the shock images, e-mail the appropriate people at your university, ccing it to your tutor, head of department and members of the Executive and possibly the Student Union if they have any power, making clear that you are offended because of the images, not that you're denying their right to free speech or whatever. Trolling them really isn't going to achieve anything.

    This isn't a little thing, it's a big organized effort. The posters look professionally made. As it is, their damage has already been done. Luckily I saw a lot of students walking away angry and laughing out loud at the posters. What I want to do is make them look as ridiculous as possible.

    I hate it when you swing a punch in a dream and it's hells of wimpy when it connects and does no damage at all.

    That reminds me of a dream I had the other night.


    Not long after I got married an ex basically flat out propositioned me because, according to her, she and her husband hadn't made it since they conceived their child. Who is four.

    So in my dream I dreamt that I, I guess, took her up on her proposition and when I opened the door to... somewhere her husband comes flying out of no where and beats me up because every punch I throw at him just slides right off his face.

    Like I said, stand next to them with a "FREE ABORTIONS" poster.
