    Good morning HAL…
    Good morning Dave… I’ve indexed a selection of answers based on your dreams from last night. Would you like to see them?

    We already know Google is creepy. What we need to know, now, is how it ends.

    HAL, how do we defeat Google?

    Casey, I’m afraid I am unable to go into detail in addressing your concerns. But I can give you my complete assurance that I will employ all my faculties to the utmost investigating this matter. In the meantime, I honestly think you ought to sit down calmly, take a stress pill, and think about something else

    If the media were any where near as influential as some think then we’d all be driving Edsels and drinking New Coke.

    Here’s an example for all y’all. Normally I peruse the tubes via my account, but sometimes I’m too lazy and use my wife’s account cuz she’s logged in. My accounts and settings are all wrapped up tight, trying to keep the tubes spies from tracking me. The wife doesn’t care, and she’d be annoyed when a site didn’t work perfect and she’d yell at me. So I first read DrudgeReport on my wife’s login, then went to AmDig, and perused the comments to the pic of Elvis. Kudos to ghostsniper to figuring it out it was a pr pic in Germany.

    I followed the link that Gerard provided describing all the publicity stills. Then I immediately navigated back to DrudgeReport cuz my curiosity was belatedly piqued about something I read there.

    Dang it! There on DrudgeReport was flashing a big ol’ Graceland advert. Something I have never seen before, not ever. Which hung around for the next five minutes. Смерть шпионам!

    All y’all gotta turn off allowing cookies and install something like Ghostery and the gizmos that prevent clandestine Javascripts from running. You don’t, and the FANGs are buying and selling you, you’re just their digital slave.

    TO Roy Lofquist
    You’re missing the point: the problem with your analogy is that the media we’re discussing here works to PREVENT you from even KNOWING there’s anything out there’s other than “Edsels and New Coke” to drive and drink.

Van der Leun: The Normblog Bio of Your Host

“From a student radical/hippie/leftist of the Free Speech Movement/Vietnam Day Commitee era and a full-on Democratic Liberal in the decades after, I think I’ve evolved a politics that is neither right nor left but is, in its elemental nature, draconian. In the last 20 years, I’ve taken apart my beliefs with a sledgehammer. Now I’ve got to put the surviving parts back together with tweezers and other ‘shabby equipment, always deteriorating’.”

Fire Sale

The Snow Man 

One must have a mind of winter
To regard the frost and the boughs
Of the pine-trees crusted with snow;

And have been cold a long time
To behold the junipers shagged with ice,
The spruces rough in the distant glitter

Of the January sun; and not to think
Of any misery in the sound of the wind,
In the sound of a few leaves,

Which is the sound of the land
Full of the same wind
That is blowing in the same bare place

For the listener, who listens in the snow,
And, nothing himself, beholds
Nothing that is not there and the nothing that is.
