I plan on writing about the current school issues, just gathering my thoughts on it. In the meantime, enjoy this completely unrelated 5-minute comedy hour:

Never Talk To Police

According to this former attorney, now a professor, you should never talk to the police. Now, I should clarify that this is more to do with being interviewed as a potential suspect or witness. You should always have a lawyer present, and you should remain silent, and express your intention to remain silent, until one is available. Especially if you're innocent.

I should warn you that both videos below are on the lengthy side, the first being 27 1/2 minutes, and the second a little over 21 minutes. However both videos contain information which everyone should have.





More information is available at Flex Your Rights.

Gamers, A Moment Please

"Chuck Bittner is a quadriplegic stand-up comedian, or as he puts it, “the can’t stand up comedian.” Chuck is hilarious, but make no mistake, he’s also a serious gamer. He plays mad crazy awesome using his face, as you’ll see in the above video. But, he can’t play every game and he wants to change that.
He’s started a petition to make custom button remapping a standard option on all games so they’re accessible to the handicapped and give all gamers the freedom to choose their button configuration. In May, Chuck is personally going to PAX East to talk to developers and present the signatures he’s collected.
You can do your part by signing the petition here."
