Censureship

Recently I read an article about how telecom corps. are looking at charging internet sites to enable faster access for their customers. So it would be really fast to get to google b/c google shelled out some serious dough, but slow to popular blogs like "Teaching near Tafuna" in American Samoa, b/c I did not pay Verizon lots of money, so I don't get the speed. It's censureship based on money.

But there is another type of censureship, relational. I've noticed that in relationships one person is not "allowed" to say or do something b/c it is not viewed as "appropriate" or acceptable by the other. Eg. Mom's and wives.

There are some things that are humorous and educational that should not be censured by females. Such as top ten lists on http://dentites.blogspot.com. (under comments for post about girl in the library) So here is something that "I" am proud of, and since mom is 9000 miles away she can't do anything about.
Now that's a big rat.

So here's to you Philip Murphy. Way to go on taking down a giant rat.

  • Well there you go. This blog is roof of why you don't have a "woMan": you're a sexist bigot and no woman can stand being talked about like that. I wonder why Jaime lets you live in HER house...

  • Nice words for someone who doesn't post a name.

  • Also notice that the comments were directed at my mother who was tired of pictures of bugs and wanted pictures of her grandchildren. I compromised.

  • They're also checking my blog from work

  • How ironic is it that you accidentally entitled your blog "Censureship" (rather than censorship) and you're later publicly reprimanded for inapporpriate behavior??? i.e. the defintion of censure.

    I'm posting the pic in my office. I'm just proud Colt picked it up.

  • Great Picture! Points to Colt for touching that thing.
    But wait....who let "anonymous" out of the kitchen?

  • Observations about rats, responses etc.

    1.Wow... somebody wasn't too pleased.

    2.She even went for the cheap shot. I'm afraid of insulting somebody who I'll run into sooner or later, but she just put up a prime example of "classy" standing up for yourself.

    3.In her defense, I'm gonna guess she reacted without having much (any?) relevant background as to the post.

    4.I'm dying to know where your sitemeter is hidden and what in the world "anonymous" might have said to actually get censored (or censured).

    5.Maybe you are a sexist bigot.

    6.How could she be upset after seeing a dead rat?

  • she didn't get censored. I took back a rath unpleasant comment as did another unidentified poster

  • Dead rats are inherently funny, like people falling, and girls that are jerks getting chubby.(Paul typed antagonistacly). Sitemeter is in the code. If you look at the code its there.

  • This keeps going through my head...

    So what DOES Jaime think about having a sexist bigot in her house?

    Also... since you're intolerant of other people's views on pictures of rats... wouldn't that make you a bigot afterall?

    By Blogger Josh M, at 10/18/2006 3:44 PM  

  • Jaime doesn't have to worry about having A sexist bigot in the house, she has two. :) She should be used to it by now. j/k honey.

    I was responding to the tone of your post, which I found to be rather disrespectful of women in general. As a writer, I can tell you that working on your tone and your presentation of sarcasm will help avoid these kind of posts in the future. Just a thought. Anyway, congrats on killing the rat, it's a pretty good catch. A dead rat is the best kind of rat!

    Oh, and "She"....oops! Just because I'm defending females doesn't necessarily mean I'm a female...

  • I'm beginning to think that "Anonymous" is really Jaime.

    By Blogger Josh M, at 10/18/2006 5:55 PM  

  • Jaime would have to have a time machine to post at that time today. It's not yet 3pm. And anonymous is a woman. Who spells Jaime's name correctly?

    By Blogger Paul Murphy, at 10/18/2006 6:34 PM  

  • Blogger time posting doesn't mean anything. It's 3:58 here in Am Sam when I post this. It will say I posted this message much later. I think it may be on Central Time.

  • Make that Pacific Time.
