Heeeeeey....!!!!

Put the cat down and step away from the keyboard!
haha, just joking

Internet is evil?  
Damn! sometimes I still feel like I am living in dark ages.  
When do these morons realize that technology is never good or bad!  
It is neutral and only what you do with it is good or bad!

For what it's worth I could probably use some Christian distro and host 
pron on it.  (LOL)
How does this sound to you all?   Whould that constitute blasphemy?
