Wish I hadn't missed it at the time, but here it is now. :)

Joste can probably read it as-is. LOL.
I'd rather be a free person who fears terrorists, than be a "safe" person who fears the government.

This reminds me of an article I read on how this guy combated neighbors stealing wireless internet access from him.

Yep. It's a good one for sure.

sounds a lot like the old dos screensaver I sent a long time ago
( I dont even have that one any more)
it showed a bomb with a burning fuse and played the sound file with this phrase
"this computer will self destruct in 2 minutes"
it was quite amusing to see my bosses face when he got it

a lot better than the fake rat we put in his desk
but he was a good guy and got a good chuckle afterwards
