MPAA Names Dan Glickman To Replace Jack Valenti 307
Zordak writes "Fox News is reporting that the MPAA has chosen a new chief to replace Jack Valenti. Dan Glickman is an avid Linux user, a well-known consumer advocate, vehemently critical of the DMCA and a member of the EFF. Ha ha. Just kidding, Dave Barry style. Dan Glickman is actually a seasoned Washington politician, having served as a Kansas representative and agriculture secretary under President Clinton. He has previously been a lobbyist for the Walt Disney Corporation, and his son is the producer of such quality fare as 'Shanghai Knights' and 'Rush Hour.' Don't be looking for that 'approved' Linux DVD player soon."

When I read that sentence, all of a sudden my heart opened up and I was filled with joy and happiness! I felt incredibly warm and fuzzy all over! :-(
The next sentence almost killed me

Believe it or not, a merger of Canada's Reform Party and Alliance Party became the Canadian Conservative Reform Alliance Party. Yes, all too briefly, the big right wing party here in Canada was known as CCRAP. Go here [www.unb.ca] for a few lines from Canadian politicians after seeing the unfortunate acronym. Canadian politics are just more fun! (Mainly because we can't do anything that would lead to severe global consequences.)
