January 2006 Archives

So apparently everyone's favourite President of the United States has just signed in to law a piece of legislation that makes it illegal to annoy someone anonymously. So I guess on the whole I should stop writing this blog entirely...oh wait I'm not using a psuedonym...yet.

Apparently it was attached on to the end of "must-pass" bill authorising "appropriations for the Department of Justice for fiscal years 2006 to 2009, and other purposes". Umm what other purposes could that be I wonder?

Its strange, the media and politicians are forever saying how violent computer games and films make people violent. They never mention how they make people better. Everytime i watch the West Wing for example I feel inspired and want to be a writer or policy maker or some such. It raises within me an urge to aspire to a similar role. Why is that affect of films and computer games talked about in the news?
