Default Bear Trap

Food For Thought.

Could this website have been created by the CIA or some other nefarious intelligence organization to root out and indentify potential subversives?

Like honey to a bear.

Perhaps, I'm fool of Pooh!!! But, then again!!

1. I would call you paranoid, but the fact is, it is impossible to be paranoid right now.

2. What makes you think they will need any excuse at all? Due to the PATRIOT & HSD Acts, and the lobbying of the good folks at Wackenhutt (purveyor of fine private prisons everywhere), we will ALL be in jail by this time next year, whether we are guilty or not, for reasons that will nver be explained.

So you may as well have fun while you can.

I think you may be on to something. I also have heard that the best way to prevent them form getting inside your hard drive is to place an aluminum foil shield around the modem card on your computer. I should warn you, however, that if you don't know what you are doing you could short it out so if that's the case the only way to protect yourself would be to abstain from using the infected site.

Damn CIA!

psychopathology: paranoia

Usually the irrational belief that one is the object of special persecution or abuse by others or by fate, or the chronic tendency to such belief.

A paranoid individual lives in a state or attitude of suspicion and mistrust or conviction that something bad will happen or that enemies want to persecute or mistreat them. Paranoia may be associated with:

psychopathology: grandiosity

Inflated self-esteem or self-worth, usually manifested as content of thinking or talk with themes reflecting the patient's belief that he or she is the greatest or has special attributes or abilities.

Oh, a "bear trap". Sorry I thought you said "beer tap". Nevermind, it must be the fillings in my head being interfered with by the Anheiser Busch/Coors/Miller satellite that keeps track of my thoughts.

I had no idea you were a lefty. Thanks for starching the curtains, though.
