Do you mean you're not as alone in the house as you thought you were? You're having some spirits around you? I wonder who it could be.

Hello and Mornin'

Omoba: I'm watching the View and they are talking about paranormals and your phone rining thing gave me goose bumps.

Nagi: I can't imagine having to go through an ordeal like she has. Wow talk about shock on the system. She'll have to do tons of laundry too now.

Uno: Morning girl: All under control

Zaina: whappin gial

you know that is a popular intro for a series of bad horror movies.... "I still know what" you wanted to do last summer but you had "one missed call"......blah, blah, blah"




do do do do do do do do

Mmhh, only the Holy Ghost and he is protecting me

I just now got what you meant by it being a tapped phone line.

See me being all spiritual thinking angels are with you ringing your phone letting you know they are with you and you are never alone.

Congratulations.

it's just your friendly department of homeland security letting you know that while you are at work, they are taking care of watching your home.

Yep, Except I was at home at the time. I wonder if they could mow my lawn while they are at it ?
They like my emails too !
I have to find that article with the tapping info at the ATT phone Co. building in St. Louis.

Alot of people would feel more secure it they mowed lawns!

Here we go ! Watch the video how your emails and phone calls are intercepted.

Hey Omoba,
I remember watching that and thinking to myself, "I am not surprised by anything our government does and denies doing ." Thats the price we pay as americans for having liberties that other countries only dream of . Liberation does come with a price tag .

Installing RealPlayer on Mom's pc to watch it. I think I've seen this one before.

Oh, I have a funny story regarding that. Our phone calls started out with excellent quality and suddenly the quality dropped. Along with that, we noticed certain things changed, such as all of our mail was searched on both sides (as in we noticed it was all opened and repasted so it could have been his side or our side or both), I got pulled aside flying back and they had records of all my travels to question me about, not only ones on that passport, etc. Anyway, back to the phone. We were engaging in certain "activities" on the phone. I got really mad one day and just yelled "I do not care if you listen to me, but if the quality of my line does not improve immediately, there will be no more [activity]!!!" Amazingly, from that day on, I had crystal clear calls. Could be coincedence. Maybe not

OMG! This means the gov't has seen my sexy half nekkid pix that I sent to my Husband for his eyes only!

I certianly wouldn't send them as a post card like they claim emails are.

Morning

somebody.........somewhere..........is examining your pic in a cubicle in homeland security.

....,

Jerks.

that may well describe their current activity.

That price tag has robbed us of freedom of privacy and will continue to rob us of our liberty.
It is done in the name of liberty but will ultimitely police us as a Nation.
It is unconstitutional. We are being brainwashed with the tool of fear to consent to things our fathers never dreamed of.

According to the news broadcast it's against the 4th and 6th amendments.

Exactly.

It ultimately will end in control and intimidation of US citizen. The very thing that is said to protect will become the manipulation.
A police state

The news broadcast also points out though that the government was criticized after the Sept 11 attacks for not doing enough to protect us. Now they are secretly doing this to data mine and protect us but those of us not doing anything wrong feel it's a violation of privacy, which it is.

I liked what the Congress woman had to say about it. That the technology is very advanced but that the government needed to operate within the laws.

This is all new frontier that the new laws need to be pioneered and created. I for one certainly do not believe my private emails are for the government eyes like as if viewing a post card because the email servers are able to view them. They rarely view them and they have privacy legislation to dictate that with communication acts.

It is finding the line between at what point is this a matter of national security vs. a violation of our civil liberties?

Yes, new laws need to be provided and they need to operate within that law. What concerns me is that the government can take this information and have the power to intimidate and use it as they see fit ,all in the name of security, whereas the internet server has a different agenda but they can not show up at your desk at work and question you like the men in the suits can.

Internet servers can gather data primarily for marketing etc. and of course we won't send bank account info through email because of hackers but can you imagine the power the government has, to do what they want to with our private data ?

And then when you request a FOIA from the entities that be, all of a sudden it takes 2 years for them to disclose that gathered data ?
Is the excuse of backlog to process a FOIA not a sloppy diversion for us to remain in the dark where the data came from and how it was obtained ?

Let me by example bring it into the immigration realm:

Applicant denied and not told the reason or partial reason.
Applicant / Petitioner files for FOIA so he can defend and form a rebuttal.
Immigration entities take the privilege to delay a response to this request for years.
Now who has been operating outside the law by gathering private data to deny ? And who remains in the dark ?
Why would they admit oh yes, we have this data about you and we don't like it and we got it by breaking the law......heck no they would rather drag the FOIA request out until the cows come home.

good morning


There was a tour bus in Egypt that stopped in the middle of a town square.

The tourists are all shopping at the little stands surrounding the square.

One tourist looks at his watch, but it is broken, so he leans over to a local who is squatted down next to his camel. "What time is it, sir?"

The local reaches out and softly cups the camel's genitals in his hand, and raises them up and down.

"It's about 2:00", he says.

The tourist can't believe what he just saw.

He runs back to the bus, and sure enough, it is 2:00. He tells a few of the fellow tourists his story,

"The man can tell the time by the weight of the camel's genitals!"

One of the doubting tourists walks back to the local and asks him the time, the same thing happens!! It is 2:05.p.m.

He runs back to tell the story. Finally, the bus driver wants to know how it is done.

He walks over and asks the local how he knows the time from the camel's genitals.

The local says "Sit down here and grab the camel's genitals". "Now, lift them up in the air.

Now, look underneath them to the other side of the courtyard, where that clock is hanging on the wall."

Good Morning Sub-Saharan.

LL & Oboma the Borah Symposium Committee met yesterday and choose a theme and key not speaker that was so random. It's going to be on healthy and they're getting someone from Scandinavian to come. They sent an email out to all of us that are in town yet for school. I don't know if this was choosen because of the people that were there but a health theme? One of the things about it is I've worked in the medical field for 8 years so I have extensive background on it and it's one the Symposium has never put on. I am wondering if there are some other benefits such as grants coming in or tying into the WAMI program. That stands for Washington, Alaska, Montana, it's an exchange of students from different school for instate tuition prices because not all states have medical schools. I am just curious how this is going to be a cause of war and a path to peace. I need to sift back through my emails to see what the proposal was for it.

why am I "NOT" surprised

Thanks for the update Olivia Maybe the committee will choose S/L the next time.

Hi VJ Fam!

I got great news this morning. The lab results were negative! I'm cancer free! Praise God!!

Of course, they called me yesterday and told me I had to come in and see the doc. I asked for the results of the labs and they said they couldn't do it over the phone. So, I spent the night literally vomiting and thinking that I had to go in because they needed to discuss next steps and treatment options. All that stress for nothing. Poor Bassi. I think he's lost 5 pounds in the past week. We'll have to have a mini family vacation this weekend. We're all a mess! When mama's sick, the whole family suffers.
