“Police Find Swastika Cut Into Acres Of N.J. Cornfield” – what a great way to get a lot of attention, anonymously or otherwise (anonymous attention can be quite a lot of fun), without actually achieving anything or for that matter even really hurting anyone.

The worst thing you could have done to the kids who did this would have been not to have reported it at all, which would take the kind of discipline previously reserved for people who run onto the field at ball games in order to get on TV. This is the same level of stupidity. The swastika is nothing, in this context, but a “Hi Mom!” sign.

Godwin’s law is the Murphey’s law for the net. Brilliant.

  I’ve been known to sound the alarm about the rush to register trademarks, and all the more so to register anticipated trademarks. I argue that — oh, forget it, even I’m tired of saying this over and over again. Here’s what I said, one of the times I said it: For well over nine out [...] […]

Some pretty complicated steps: I think that modern dance music, particularly the mash-up [based on DJs who use various technologies such as turntables, mixers, and effects boxes to produce sounds using two or more original recordings], is one of the most [...] […]
