A Website You Just Should

Wikis are amazing. Sometimes, Wikis are a pain.

What if someone made Wikis as easy as a Peanut Butter sandwich?

Someone did: http://pbwiki.com/

This is a fantastic and easy way to create an collaborate. Just about any organization has a reason to use a wiki, and PB Wiki makes it easier than your e-mail.

While We're On the Truth-capade

A new website for the Websites You Just Should! This one isn't very exclamation pointy, in fact it can leave one feeling a touch melancholy.

Anyways, some cop from southern California somewhere in the 70's, somewhere around the whole Ollie North thing, kinda gets invited to help the CIA, or someone, smuggle Cocaine into Amurrca. Apparently this cop dude went all IA on these mutha-fuckas, or something, either way, he was in to exposing the G-man's dust fetish.

So like, fast forward through this c-span video where this white narc is addressing a black congressman in a room full of vocal black constituents and the narc is telling the congressman that the g-man has been selling cocaine to the black neighbourhoods and that he (the narc) has been on record about this for 18 years. The congressman (was it a senator?) asks for documents that the narc again presents later (welcome to the reason for this post) that do a lot to cast a reasonable suspicion on the relative cleanliness of the G-man's war, and the narc reveals this presentation of evidence warranted no further response. That G-man's a quiet one.

Ok, the cop is Mike Ruppert, and the web-site is www.copvcia.com which is definitely a web 0.5 domain name but forgive the guy, he was literally in there in the <1.0>THE TRUTH & LIES OF 9/11

(p.s. Fascist America in 9 Minutes: He Likes it, Hey Mikey)

Perhaps my Favorite Type of E-mail

The newsletter whose leading headline reads:

Recreational Drugs FAR Less Likely to Kill You than Prescribed Drugs!
After seeing these statistics, you will never look at another drug ad the same again.

From the article:
Drugs are Dangerous Whether Pushed or Prescribed While approximately 10,000 per year die from the effects of illegal drugs, an article in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) reported that an estimated 106,000 hospitalized patients die each year from drugs which, by medical standards, are properly prescribed and properly administered. More than two million suffer serious side effects. [3]
...
The number of unnecessary medical and surgical procedures performed annually is 7.5 million. The number of people exposed to unnecessary hospitalization annually is 8.9 million. The total number of iatrogenic deaths shown in the following table is 783,936. It is evident that the American medical system is the leading cause of death and injury in the United States. The 2001 heart disease annual death rate is 699,697; the annual cancer death rate, 553,251."
