This was my fourth CD mix, and Flipsy is the only one bugging me to list my choices, but it’s a good excuse to write….
1. Song with a day of the week in the title.
Saturday Night And Sunday Morning Phil Collins
2. A song you disliked as a youngster that you like now.
Get Up Stand Up Bob Marley & The Wailers I don’t know why I didn’t like it. But maybe it’s because I couldn’t figure out why he kept saying the same thing over and over again. I guess it’s because it took about 500,000 times for me to understand what he meant…so it’s a good thing he kept repeating it.
3. Sellout - song from a TV commercial.
We Will Rock You Queen EVERY FUCKING COMMERCIAL. Puhleez!
4. Kickass cover song.
The Bitch Is Back Tina Turner LOVE. HER.
5. Musical question...
Why Annie Lennox Like I could resist.
6. And answer!
Don't Ask Me Why So many answers…this one was perfect
7. Third person song
She's a Rebel Green Day Little brother hates this group…had to pick it.
8. Uplugged - a favorite acoustic song.
. Crazy (Acoustic Version) Seal I love this guy’s voice….even though I don’t own any of his CDs..
9. A song about food.
Chocolate The Getaway People It has to be Chocolate…
10. Trains, Planes and Automobiles: song about a mode of transport
El Automovil Los Van Van I loved this song, and it made me miss Flipsy, and dancing on the beach in Florids
11. A song that cheers you up.
Big Girl (You Are Beautiful) MIKA I LOVE LOVE LOVE this guy, and again, I don’t own any of his CDs, I just listen to his music on MSN music and watch his in concert videos.
12. Media - songs about radio, TV or other type of media Video Killed the Radio Star (Radio Edit) Timeline Project This song reminds me of high school…I don’t know why. I don’t think it’s that old.
13. Add it up
One Short Day Idina Menzel/Kristin Chenoweth
14. plus
Three Little Birds Bob Marley & The Wailers
15. Equals
4 Leaf Clover Erykah Badu
16. Banned! A song that is, or was in its day, controversial.
Let's Go Get Stoned Ray Charles ‘nuf said.
17. A song about a family member
Sister Indigo Girls
18. A favorite song that you have discovered since our last CD mix.
- Maybe There's a World Yusuf Islam “ Again, I love this guy. Have since I was 15. Could listen to nothing but him for the rest of my life.
19. A song that reminds you of an old friend.
More Than A Feeling Boston I should have picked a different song….this person hasn’t been a friend for a long time.
20. Amnesty song
Hackensack Fountains Of Wayne I thought this was “Hackensaw” and I picked it out a long time ago for Bet, then when I read it more carefully, well, now I just feel dyslexic.
I hope you enjoyed these!!

HELLO, MISS ME?
I can't explain why I haven't written in so long, it's not that I haven't wanted to...it's just that I haven't felt like it....
I know that must make sense to some/all of you. Thanks for understanding.
We are less than 6 months out to Hawaii (see way below for the countdown....) and I have lost all of 5 pounds...Oy. If I had one wish, it would be that everyone in Hawaii was fat for the week I was there.
Aloha.

Pedophile Web site shut down
HOW IT HAPPENED
BELLINGHAM -- A Web site catering to pedophiles and listing family events in Whatcom County has been shut down.
Internet service provider Network Solutions, which hosted the site, had its legal department review the site and decided it went against the company’s standards, a spokeswoman said.
The man who runs the “Seattle-Tacoma-Everett Girl Love” site said earlier this week it had been shut down before. He apparently moved it to a new service provider.
It was not immediately clear if he would against move the site to a new provider.
A story on the Web site appeared in Tuesday’s Bellingham Herald.
The Snohomish County man behind the site has been investigated by several police agencies. While the site contained photos of young girls at public events, lists of area events they might attend, and information on the law, there was nothing illegal on it, police said.
However, the site had drawn the attention of Perverted Justice, an online watchdog group that exposes pedophiles and alerts police about them. Its founder called the site “one of the most disturbing we’ve seen.”
A phone call from Opinion Editor Scott Ayers alerted the ISP that hosted the pedophile Web site. This was his blog from yesterday..
Phone call leads to suspension of pedophile’s Web site
SCOTT AYERS
THE BELLINGHAM HERALD
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Network Solutions, a Virginia-based Internet Service Provider, has suspended the Web site of a Northwest Washington man who promotes pedophilia.
The man’s site, at www.stegl.org, was run through Network Solutions until I phoned them Wednesday.
Spokeswoman Susan Wade told me the company’s legal department first contacted the man and demanded he give them a real name, and not the alias he had used to sign up for service.
The man told them his name is Jack McClellan. Wade said the department is still reviewing to make sure that also is not an alias, though the person did provide them with a driver's license or other identification. Local officials have since confirmed that is the Web site owner's name.
The legal department then reviewed the content of the site and suspended it for “going against our acceptable use policy,” Wade said.
The Web site called itself “Seattle-Tacoma-Everett girl love” and featured stories about pedophilia, links to other pedophilia sites and photos of local girls taken in public places.
Local police were monitoring the site, but said there was nothing illegal on it that they had found.
Whatcom County residents have been outraged since our news department broke the story of the site in Tuesday’s paper. Some who checked out the site found photos of their daughters or their daughters’ friends taken at public events in Whatcom County.
I was able to find the name of the ISP through a search tool known as Whois, which is available to anyone online. I contacted Wade as part of research I was doing for an editorial for this Sunday’s paper. Wade immediately told the company’s investigative office of the site and they took it down early Thursday morning.
Some people might argue that by doing so I have promoted censorship. I believe strongly that everyone has the right to free speech. But that doesn’t mean that businesses such as Network Solutions have to support that speech. They have the right to refuse service, and have done everyone a favor by shutting down this disgusting site.
QOATIP’S COMMENTS
I did go to the Stegl site yesterday. It gave me chills. The comments this person made in reference to the children was stomach churning. While I didn’t recognize any of the children photographed, I did attend some of those events. Now there is some what of a witch hunt for ANYONE photographing children….I guess you’ll be writing to me in jail soon…These People are sick sick sick….I don’t even know what to say about that. Except they are out there.....
