holy crap!

Just a general update..."holy crap" being the title because the state from whence I hail is has proposed one of those far right, OBVIOUSLY religion motivated amendments...Ugh. I'm not even going to go into it, but I guess if any good has come from it, it's that it has motivated me (and many others) to actually be locally involved in the politics of things...

luckily, I'm not famous

Yeah, that's right...because (and be warned) I tried one of those counter thingies that I had heard so much about....Well, it was definitely sort of creepy to me that we can see people's ISP numbers and stuff (which made me think about the even more creepy Patriot Act); yet, on the other hand it was fun to see how people arrived at my blog.

Well, yesterday at a university computer, I went to my blog on a whim, clicked on my little counter thingy, and it actually displayed my last name and everything...Which is un-creepy when I think about the people I regularly correspond with on here, but otherwise is very creepy in general. I did not stick around to see if I could change it; it was just a little too weird, and so -needless to say- I removed the counter from my site.

It kind of reminded me of the time (before I knew ANYTHING about computers) when I needed to inform my Comp. II instructor that I had a personal female problem (with specifics, by the way), and I somehow sent to email to my entire class list serve.

Bummer.

Later-
Faye
