PS: I've been going with this slow connection so long I can't imagine what I'll be able to do. I know one thing is that when it is finally hooked up and working right and I know what I'm doing I'll go to look for news and that will be the one and only day there won't be any! LOL! Just kidding and thanks again for the link. Soon I will be able to enjoy them too.

his may come as a surprise to Channel 4, which has just secured the UK rights to The Simpsons for £1m a show, but the most popular TV programme in the world could be on its last legs. Not that Matt Groening, the show's genial creator, who was in Bristol last weekend to open the Animated Encounters festival, puts it quite like that.

However, he's the first to admit that "it becomes increasingly difficult as the years go by to keep on not only surprising the audience, but surprising ourselves".

When The Simpsons was first put out as a stand-alone series in 1989 it attracted a great deal of criticism in the US, particularly from the Christian right. But the show has now become so popular that it usually stays out of trouble, says Groening. For instance, no one wrote in to complain when, in one show, Homer smoked cannabis to relieve his pain.

The location is east-bound I-44 in Phelps county, 15 miles past Fort Leonard Wood military base and the town of St. Robert, about 9 miles before the town of Rolla.

They make million dollar busts on a regular basis, and nobody has made a case on the agencies involved.

I know the Phelps county sheriff dept. and the Highway Patrol are involved, and I saw a dark suburban with tinted windows speeding away from that location on Sunday that looked suspiciously like DEAth.

I say we entrap them. Put a video camcorder in the car, I'll even provide detailed, step by step instructions on installing hidden video. Then, making sure the car and driver are clean, go through the exit and record the process of refusing the search.

Now repeat with a different car/driver combo a few times, and I believe there will be enough video to expose such fraud. I might even supply the equipment if someone really wants to do this. At the very least, the waste of time and unconstitutional behavior will make great filler for a video I am making to arrest prohibition.

THE ACLU BUSTCARD: http://www.aclu.org/library/bustcard.html

Subterfuge is the word LEA's use to describe their lying.

sub.ter.fuge

1 : deception by artifice or stratagem in order to conceal, escape, or evade

2 : a deceptive device or stratagem

synonym see DECEPTION

This word was used by a Missouri State Highway Patrol investigator in court, describing the use of false statements meant to illicit a confession from the person being interrogated. In this particular case, a patrol sergeant was accused of raping an 11-year-old girl about 12 years ago. The investigator told the accused sgt. that there was physical evidence, which was a lie, but when this deception was presented in court, it was described as standard operating procedure. The sgt. claimed he never knew subterfuge was used and he was against it. Lying scum bag. This primordial slime spent 15 years as a pilot, flying his plane over my house and the rest of Missouri, destroying our beloved cannabis plant, as well as the lives of thousands. He was found not guilty, was reinstated to his former job, and will be out there again this year.

Secondly, I drove to St. Louis on Sunday, traveling east-bound on I-44. We encountered signs on both sides of the roadway at the 176 mile marker proclaiming: "Drug Checkpoint Ahead," then more signs, this time in Spanish as well as English, stating "Drug Dogs in Use."

These signs are placed just before an exit ramp.

DO NOT TAKE THE EXIT RAMP!!!!!!!!

It is a trap, and taking the exit will get you pulled over and searched without exception!

There are no gas stations or restaurants at this exit, so it is regularly used for this trap. They make huge busts that we hear about on the news, but the news never explains how the trap works, nor what happens to the person with small amounts of cannabis, but I guarantee you they're arrested.

It's a shock the first time you see these signs, and you'll be tempted to take the exit.

If you think about it, there is NO WAY they can have a drug checkpoint on a major interstate without backing up traffic for miles. However, when there was road construction going on in that area, they still used the signs, and didn't put the construction signs out until after the exit ramp. Sneaky bastards!

JUDGE TOSSES OUT POT CASE

A Yolo County judge dismissed a case against a Esparto man last week after his attorney successfully argued that the marijuana his client grew was for medical use.

Fermin "Ed" Aldana, 61, was charged with cultivation of marijuana, a felony punishable by up to three years in state prison, after Yolo County sheriff's deputies discovered 50 marijuana plants growing near his apartment last August.

Following a preliminary hearing last Friday, Judge Thomas Warriner dismissed the case after hearing testimony from Aldana's doctor and a marijuana expert who said the number of plants Aldana grew would yield just about the amount of marijuana he used -- about a half-ounce a week -- to curb pain from arthritis.

Budweiser has no flavor, maybe that's why Americans pound them down by the dozen.

They're greedy, hypocritical, and at the end of the day, what they do to beer is a crime in itself.

The court did not comment in rejecting an appeal from authorities in Cincinnati. The city tried to ban drug criminals from the crime- and drug-plagued Over-the-Rhine neighborhood, but the policy was declared unconstitutional in state and federal courts.
