John Locke Tutorial:
I love that man. Even his accent makes me happy. It’s sort of old-timey nice-guy. A midwestern thing, probably, which makes sense since apparently he’s from Michigan.

We’re Banning Pay-Per-View Now?
Citizens United (Hillary: the Movie) v. Federal Election Commission
I liked this video. I liked this Supreme Court ruling because it’s made my liberal acquaintances heads explode about eeeevil corporations. Apparently the thought is that if you can’t be thrown in jail, you shouldn’t be able to donate money to political parties. No word on whether [...]
