“First and last, it's a question of money.
Those men who own the earth make the laws to protect what they have.
They fix up a sort of fence or pen around what they have,
and they fix the law so the fellow on the outside cannot get in.
The laws are really organized for the protection of the men who rule the world.
They were never organized or enforced to do justice.
We have no system for doing justice, not the slightest in the world.”



-- Clarence Darrow

All people who are using Internet Explorer are damn fools!

It has been over two years now that I switched from Internet Explorer to Mozilla Firefox and I have never regreted the change for a minute. I especially like the multiple tab function of Firefox. What , prey tell , are the multiple tabs that you can see on my computer? My homepage is the frog (french) newspaper "Le Monde". The first tab is "Smart Mobs.com.".....a great American computer / society site. The second is" Boing Boing."..... a fantastic carnival of links- need I say more..... The third is "Wired News ", a super US computer/ society website. The forth tab is Wired News in Japanese. Using this site I can kill two birds with one stone...... isseki ni cho...... I can improve my Japanese and at the same time I can learn about this wonderful technology that is changing everything right before are very eyes.......Just like magic!!!!!! My fifth tab is "El Mundo."...... the site of the great Spanish newspaper. I would prefer to read the Spanish newspaper El Pais but unfortunately the folks at this great newpaper have decided to charge a fee for receiving their on line news....... The sixth tab is that world famous site "The Bloggster". My seventh site is a frog computer/ society site "Transnets". My eighth site is the site of the great French newspaper" Liberation." My ninth tab is " l'heure Americain."....the blog of a frog journalist from Liberation who is working in Washington DC. My tenth tab is" Big Picture."...the blog of a frog journalist from Le Monde who is working in DC. The last tab is" France Culture "........the site of the fantastic frog public radio station. I am one damn intenational person eh!

Some interesting jokes on "immigration reform."


Jay Leno:
"Yesterday, President Bush gave a big speech about immigration reform. I don't know. Is President Bush really the best guy to talk about entering another country illegally?"

Jay Leno: "This problem of illegal immigration is nothing new. We've had this for a long time. In fact, the Indians had a special name for it. They called it 'White people.'"

David Letterman: "By the way, speaking of President Bush, right now he's in Cancun, Mexico. He's down there looking for tequila of mass destruction."

Jay Leno: "Well, the good news is Congress is cracking down on illegal immigration. The bad news, a head of lettuce will now cost $300."

Now it is time for something completely surreal.
