ways to waste time at a computer

Soooo, my life right now (and I mean this very moment) basically consists of sitting in front of a computer at the CNN center waiting for something horrible to happen. Then, some fatcats at Time Warner can sell commercials that people watch in between horrible news and make some money off of it. Kind of morbid?....Indeed. However, there is a silver lining--We get the news out. Because of what we and others do, everybody, everywhere knows what goes on in the world. Though this has its own downsides, I happen to think that access to information is an overall good thing. Today, analysis seems to focus on how much American soft power has been damaged in the Mideast by the Abu Ghraib prison scandal. Every now and then I flip over to FOX News so I can be entertained by the latest batch of anti-liberal vitriol.
