A woman is fined $1.92 million for sharing 24 songs off the internet. I think this is completely outrageous. I can't believe any judge or any jury in the nation would let this pass. Why aren't people taking to the streets? Would you ever fine someone $2 million for stealing a CD? Of course not. There's the concept that the punishment must match the crime. This has gone too far.
Driving around the south bay again has made me enjoy driving much more again. The speed limit goes above 30 and I'm not in constant fear of being hit or hitting a pedestrian or getting a ticket. It's a much different experience when I get to play with all 6 gears instead of just 3.
Being at home is like being put into the "do nothing" box. I sleep in, am lethargic all day, take naps, waste time. I don't know what it is. But it's not just me. I think my sister is like this also. It feels like I've been here forever, but it's only been the first full week. Even going back to my apartment for a few hours revives a drive that I just don't have here. I've moved my futon/bed, table and chair into my room in SJ, so the structure is there. I'll move the rest of my stuff next week. Because I'm not in the room I was in before, my desktop doesn't have a LAN cable. I'll have to crawl around in the attic to run a cable and drill through the ceiling again. |
