Screwed on Wiki


The Internet with its accessibility to anyone can be a good tool in the right hands, as well as a deadly weapon of manipulation in the wrong ones - once again showing how much we all are being influenced by it - we can't spend a day without it, although we perfectly know that 98% of its contents is a lie, or at least just someone's personal point of view.

Political operatives are covertly rewriting -- or defacing -- candidates' biographical entries to make the boss look good or the opponent look ridiculous.

Been too bizzy here at CT but i wont be surprised if i show up all of a sudden in Jozzi in the next couple of weeks. I'm learning to expect the unexpected and not make long plans now. Enjoying the moment.

Speaking of which, what about yer winter vacation?
