10. Here's the story I was trying to read about

...when I found out Blogspot was down. It wasn't on Americablog. Rather, it was a link on Raw Story:

'X-Treme' Motivational Speaker Faces Child Porn Charges

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. -- A nationally known motivational speaker is facing child pornography charges.

Police in Arkansas arrested Michael Fortino -- a man who lives in Pittsburgh, but travels the world.

Fortino's Web site has been shut down, but a cached version of it showcases him as a motivational speaker.

He was apparently in Arkansas to give one of those speeches when he was arrested...

15. Might not be a bad idea ...

... saw this discussion title, and tried to go to AmericaBlog. The 'title' at the bottom of my screen, which should say 'AmericanBlog etc', had a web title for someone named Zimmerman -- then I got the 'cannot connect' message. Strange. I was able to get through without any problem earlier this afternoon.

:tinfoilhat: = just in case.

NanceGreggs, seems like tinfoil hat season has been going on for a while. So far this is all I have left: The planes were real with real passengers. As far as everything else?????? :tinfoilhat:

17. I don't think it was Ford. . .

I suspect there is a technical problem. . .and with this latest outrage from the AFA, traffic probably was heavy.
