Today is Bill of Rights Day. To Americans, the Bill of Rights are key amendments to the U.S. Constitution, that protect our individual rights.
I find it without irony that the US Senate has passed a bill allowing the indefinite detention of US citizens and that the House of Representatives appears ready to pass the bill, and on this very day the House Judiciary Committee is ready to make a vote on SOPA which will dramatically alter the Internet and people’s rights on the Internet.
I like this quote:
It is a curious way to celebrate the 220th anniversary of the Bill of Rights.

Posted by Doug McCaughan in : Announcements, Blog, Of Interest, PublishingI cannot seem to get a comment to post on the Knoxnews blog No Silence Here.
"I’m told it will cease to exist." That’s a terrible shame. Blogs, content, are history. Like newspapers of old were archived on microfiche, so should blogs such as No Silence Here be forever archived.
Good luck to you Michael! Thank you for the years of inspiration, links, and ideas.

Posted by Doug McCaughan in : Daily Life, Transportation, TravelThe weather is great. I so wish I could be working on the playhouse, the real house, and the yard but instead I’m at Firestone getting new tires on the van and programming on a client’s website.
