Some Feel Good Music.

 Alright.  I don't know if my readers enjoy GaGa, but I love this music.

I also love this cover:





INTRO:
It doesn't matter if you love him, or capital H-I-M
Just put your paws up'
cause you were Born This Way, Baby


VERSE:
MY MAMA TOLD ME WHEN I WAS YOUNG
WE ARE ALL BORN SUPERSTARS

SHE ROLLED MY HAIR AND PUT MY LIPSTICK ON
IN THE GLASS OF HER BOUDOIR

"THERE'S NOTHIN WRONG WITH LOVIN WHO YOU ARE"
SHE SAID, "'CAUSE HE MADE YOU PERFECT, BABE"

"SO HOLD YOUR HEAD UP GIRL AND YOU'LL GO FAR,
LISTEN TO ME WHEN I SAY"


CHORUS:
I'M BEAUTIFUL IN MY WAY
'CAUSE GOD MAKES NO MISTAKES
I'M ON THE RIGHT TRACK BABY
I WAS BORN THIS WAY

DON'T HIDE YOURSELF IN REGRET
JUST LOVE YOURSELF AND YOU'RE SET
I'M ON THE RIGHT TRACK BABY
I WAS BORN THIS WAY


POST-CHORUS:
OOO THERE AIN'T NO OTHER WAY
BABY I WAS BORN THIS WAY
BABY I WAS BORN THIS WAY
OOO THERE AIN'T NO OTHER WAY
BABY I WAS BORN-
I'M ON THE RIGHT TRACK BABY
I WAS BORN THIS WAY


DON'T BE A DRAG -JUST BE A QUEEN
DON'T BE A DRAG -JUST BE A QUEEN
DON'T BE A DRAG -JUST BE A QUEEN
DON'T BE!


VERSE:
GIVE YOURSELF PRUDENCE
AND LOVE YOUR FRIENDS
SUBWAY KID, REJOICE YOUR TRUTH

IN THE RELIGION OF THE INSECURE
I MUST BE MYSELF, RESPECT MY YOUTH

A DIFFERENT LOVER IS NOT A SIN
BELIEVE CAPITAL H-I-M (HEY HEY HEY)
I LOVE MY LIFE I LOVE THIS RECORD AND
MI AMORE VOLE FE YAH (LOVE NEEDS FAITH)

REPEAT CHORUS + POST-CHORUS

BRIDGE:

DON'T BE A DRAG, JUST BE A QUEEN
WHETHER YOU'RE BROKE OR EVERGREEN
YOU'RE BLACK, WHITE, BEIGE, CHOLA DESCENT
YOU'RE LEBANESE, YOU'RE ORIENT
WHETHER LIFE'S DISABILITIES
LEFT YOU OUTCAST, BULLIED, OR TEASED
REJOICE AND LOVE YOURSELF TODAY
'CAUSE BABY YOU WERE BORN THIS WAY

NO MATTER GAY, STRAIGHT, OR BI,
LESBIAN, TRANSGENDERED LIFE
I'M ON THE RIGHT TRACK BABY
I WAS BORN TO SURVIVE
NO MATTER BLACK, WHITE OR BEIGE
CHOLA OR ORIENT MADE
I'M ON THE RIGHT TRACK BABY
I WAS BORN TO BE BRAVE

REPEAT CHORUS


OUTRO/REFRAIN:

I WAS BORN THIS WAY HEY!
I WAS BORN THIS WAY HEY!
I'M ON THE RIGHT TRACK BABY
I WAS BORN THIS WAY HEY!

I WAS BORN THIS WAY HEY!
I WAS BORN THIS WAY HEY!
I'M ON THE RIGHT TRACK BABY
I WAS BORN THIS WAY HEY!

Another Hero Story

Another Hero Story!

So, some guys tried to rob a jewelry store.  Bunch of em, getaway 'bikes' (mopeds really) and sledgehammers.

An old lady (fashionable old lady rather) with a handbag shows up to the rescue!
Maybe the world is changing?

Caught on video, see it here!

Heroes

We may be used to reading about fictional heroes, or seeing them on TV.  But when was the last time you read about someone in real life doing something truly heroic?

Today's story is about a lone man on a train who defended an 18-year old from being raped.  40 thieves had boarded the train, and this single soldier with a knife fought them off.  He didn't come close to killing all the thieves, but he did save the girl.

Some things deserve more than just recognition.

The tiered internet in Canada has begun.  Telecom Corporations have a green light to start charging per GB.  Some ISPs have limited the cap as low as 25 GB / month before they start charging you.  Just so you know, that about enough space to download 2 new computer games off of the web (and many game companies are providing this as an option, instead of buying a CD).

Beyond that, you're being charged up to $2 / GB above and beyond that.

This is ridiculous

And the image below?  That is the future.

Egypt Offline!

In recent news, Egypt has suddenly, for all intents and purposes, disappeared from the Internet.

Pirate Time!

 

Pirate Box can be found here.

This is the Pirate Box.

My last post I mentioned I was a big fan of Open Source - a massive part of open source is the peer-to-peer network.  The Pirate Box is an invenstion by David Darts promoting Peer-to-peer communications.

The basic premise is to create a totally open filesharing server anywhere.  Check it out - and build one!
