The EFF parody 'The Mickey Mouse Club' to fight the CBDTPA.
Cory explains what parody is.

The phrases 'Mickey Mouse Copy Protection' and 'Mickey Mouse Computer' need to enter the language in this context - as in 'Do you want a Mickey Mouse computer that stops you making music?'

From my referrals log (among all the links from Andrew's more successful one) I see that someone is compiling a list of weblogs that mention SPLJ but missed this one. Odd.

Steve, I have friends,family and co-workers I meet and socialize with live too, but they don't always want to talk about Nietzsche and Heidegger's influence on the web, or Connectivity as a commodity though Andrew's jokes go down well in both places.
Hearing about Andrew's website today, our guests asked what I write about on my blog and I found it hard to say exactly - hard to map this stuff into that conversational space, without the ability to reflect and crosslink.

I obviously got the wrong end of the stick about 'living well' - I thought you meant it in the sense of living virtuously. That's one of Stoppards from Professional Foul - 'John eats well, but he's a lousy eater'.

Glad to see from the AKMA exchange that you read Nonzero - I'd love you to help me resuscitate my moribund Nonzero blog - and encourage this lot to read it too. And talking of projective geometry and religious thoughts, I'm about a quarter of the way through "A New Kind of Science" and it is interesting from a scientific point of view so far. I'll let you know when he gets into theology.
