ted stevens : the internet is tubes

Senator Ted “Bridge to Nowhere” Stevens ponders, what is the internet? it is not a truck.

It is tubes.

I just the other day got, an internet was sent by my staff at 10 o’clock in the morning on Friday and I just got it yesterday. Why?

Because it got tangled up with all these things going on the internet commercially.

So you want to talk about the consumer? Let’s talk about you and me. We use this internet to communicate and we aren’t using it for commercial purposes.

Recorded from today’s markup webcast, this is Chairman of the Senate Commerce Committee, Senator Ted Stevens of Alaska, speaking against net neutrality.

There’s a media player below, after the jump. Trust us. It’s worth listening to the whole thing…

portend?

wow…….. the soldier returns

i have a theory…

about the mombai, india bombings. since no one has claimed responsibility…. i think one possibility to consider is a group of displaced tech workers.

messages

as a programmer… i have some very strong thoughts on ‘error messages’. firstly… i’ve noticed that different people have their own ’style’ of message writing. of course they rarely express what we’d rather say that being said…. on my most recent collaborative project, a consultant that i sometimes refer to as ‘bettte midler’s doppleganger’ always begins her quite polite messages with ‘Sorry! You cannot.. blah blah blah’… while i, on the other hand prefer to get right to the point minus any pretense of niceties with a message intended to simply redirect the user with ‘Please include a blah blah blah’.. and the 3rd sort of error-message-style is the message that’s ‘all about me’, like… “no good date – let mike know” (i don’t have to tell you a guy wrote that – ha!)
