http://www.digg.com/tech_news/CNET_s_guide_to_keeping_your_kids_safe_onlineI can't believe people are digging up the comment "umm no chatrooms, myspace and youre good to go parents...otherwise you're screwed and so will your 14 yr old daughter" (and yet digging down the "teach and parent your kids" comments).
A 14 year old is not a child. And if we don't let 14 year olds use chatrooms or myspace, should 14 year olds also be prevented from using a phone or talking to people in person, because these are other ways someone who wants to screw them may communicate with them?
Oh wait I know, all we have to do is keep everyone locked in a room with no windows and no forms of communication whatsoever until the day they turn 18, then they'll be totaly protected from "pedophiles"!
Siiiigh. It just pisses me off that people want to keep their "kids" "safe" by blocking them from certain things instead of teaching them how to use them safely.

I went and applied at a gas station today, and I had to take a math test to do it, which I aced... hopefully I'll get this job... or any job... so that I can have SOMETHING to do.
My epassporte card came today... lots of people were complaining it never came or took forever to come so I was glad it came. That was the highlight of my day, how sad is that >.< But yeah now I can just go to the atm and grab the money I make online, instead of waiting for checks and shit...
So yeah I'm just about to pass out from boredom as usual right now... and tomoro looks to be even more boring
