    ..and now she's on Vivek Wadhwa's camel:

    .. and writing fluffy Pro India PR tripe, probably copy/pasting straight from Vivek's lappy. Dunno, the writing in that TechCrunch article seems too.. intelligent for her style. #wereadtwittersoyoudonthaveto

    I'd like to see the reaction when the $1K mini-elephant comes out. I, for one, will be bankrupt.

    Is there a petition we can sign to get you back or something? Or are you writing elsewhere that we might be able to stalk, er, that is, follow like normal people?

    @The Cajun Boy: Please add me to the list of those who are disappointed. I enjoyed pretty much all your posts; I liked your responsiveness and I really liked the fact that your material trickled out over the night, like you were up with the rest of us and not just shooting your wad before going to bed.

    BTW: I've glanced at your blogspot a couple of times looking for an explanation and I'll certainly give this "Animal" site whirl. Good luck.

    They actually made a movie called RAID ON ENTEBBE that could probably be looked at as a precurser to Munich/Inglorious Basterds. My mother loves it.

    Countries like Brazil, Russia, and many others require U.S. citizens to apply for visas as a point of pride. They do it not because there is any great risk in facilitating the entrance of U.S. citizens into their country as tourists. Rather, they do it because the U.S. requires their citizens to apply for visas. The U.S. generally requires visas of citizens from countries where the citizens frequently wish to immigrate to the U.S. The U.S. is worried that casual visitors from such countries may remain illegally and uses the mechanism of the visa to control entrance and make tracking more effective. Countries like Russia and Brazil are, in turn, insulted. ("We have such wonderful country! Why would we want to stay there!") Hence the red tape and the sometimes absurdly high processing fees (Russia, e.g., is over $100 for standard processing. What’s that exchange rate again?).

    It's not scary when wikipedia updates events in near real time, or writes things like "In September 2009, Lacy was widely criticized and ridiculed on Internet discussion boards..." when we're only 3 days into September. It's only really scary when they report on things that happen the day after they're written about.
