republican circus

So I'm really curious to see how much of a zoo my beloved NYC becomes during the Republican National Convention. I heard on NPR that one group is sending out a team to "disinform" the Republican delegates -- giving wrong directions, fake maps, etc., with the hopes of not only disrupting the convention but also to provide the delegates with a non-sterilized, non-beautified view of NYC.

I tried out my online Hardy Boys skills and I think I may have found them.

More than anything else, I think it would be cool to get one of the fake maps.

I also heard on the same NPR program of a women, a lifelong democrat, who decided to help out the RNC because of her love of New York. Can someone hand me a bucket? Bleech. Better.

On a separate note, what I think will prove an important internet file sharing case was just decided... in favor of the file sharing companies. It still can go to the U.S. Supreme Court, but I doubt they will take it. (But then again, I hope they do.)

We'll see.

Sam.
