WWTBAM Bored

As companies move to restrict Web surfing at work, more of them are blocking access to MySpace than to Facebook, according to a survey released Wednesday by Web security company Barracuda Networks Inc.

While 44% of companies using Barracuda's Web filtering technology block access to MySpace, only 26% are doing the same to Facebook, according to an analysis of data contributed by several thousand customers, Barracuda said. While 19% of companies blocked both the sites, half said they block one or the other or both, the analysis showed.

Boy, just wait until they discover The Bored.

They are all dens of iniquities and hangouts for harlots and roues of all stripes. They should be banned and all denizens sent for reeducation!

My kids still do not have My Space accounts.

Most of the moms that I know haven't allowed them.

A few years ago, the 14 1/2 year old daughter of a PTA mom committed suicide and left her note on My Space. During that time, we all got an education about the things that kids are posting on the site and it wasn't pretty.

That's not what I had in mind when I invented the internet!

I would think you'd be able to trust your kids.

I trust my kids, but I don't want my kids to get desensitized to the sort of stuff that appears on My Space.

Some of the girls were posting pictures of themselves in their underwear on their MySpace sites. Another girl, the daughter of a highly respected woman in the community, mentioned on her site that she likes to take showers with her boyfriend. She was 16!

I keep them very busy, so I don't think that they care that they don't have My Space pages.

You may be preaching the same message, but I'm afraid it won't be any contest. How many Nobel Prizes have you won?

Boy, you need to stay away from my MySpace pages.

Parade? Is it going to be a green parade? I will not fulfill my duties unless the car I ride in is a hybrid. Of course, I would like it to be a limo.... no wait! Better yet, a Hummer! I've got a big H3 I'll bring down to the parade route. This oughta be more fun than that time I was hiding under Bubba's desk and he thought I was Monica Lewinsky....

Of course it is, Al!

That's why you'll be walking.

Al, you don't read so good, we I said we'd be running, I meant we'd be running in the parade.

Oh, you mean the position of Grand Marshall shall be decided by a foot race! I like it; that'll really add some excitement to the festivities.

AnnieCamaro would have you all beat, if she wasn't a real, live four-footer instead of an MM.

Are you guys nuts? Does it look like I do a lot of walking or running?

Besides, nobody would want to walk behind me since unfortunately my personal emissions do not meet government standards if you know what I mean....

Thank you, Mr. Marley. BTW, I always feel like growling if somebody calls me a Merry Man. I'm a good GIRL!
