Thank you J.P., I knew you got it because I guess my fun (truth seeking;
truth telling) has become a concern at your Office of Information Awareness,
as I went to cash a check at B of A this morning, and they said they could
not cash it because of the "test e-mail" and to contact Mr. Poindexter at
some 800 number to see if I could get the "hold lifted." Can you PLEASE,
with sugar on top, lift that hold so I can eat? ;-) Then I went to the
grocery store to purchase my mango antioxidant drink, and the clerk said I
must swipe either my VON'S CLUB CARD or a valid ID, and so I did, and code
99332 came up and she said that I was violating the Patriot Act and must
contact a new office set up by Ashcroft because my antioxidant drink could
be used by terrorists in a harmful manner. Mr. Ashcroft, if you are getting
c.c.'d Mr. Poindexter's e-mail copies, could you P L E A S E, with woman on
top, could you please lift my restrictions with the merchants? I don't want
Rumsfeld at my door!

Then, get this, I get a cell phone call from an IRS agent, "collection
enforcement," where he says that I just tried to pay cash for an antioxidant
Mango fruity drink, and they wanted to know where that cash was "earned
from?" I said "don't know" and he said "could it be the cash-gratuity you
earned driving that limo last night?" at which point I said "how did you
know?" and he said "we were passed intelligence on you from the Office of
Information Awareness, after all Mr. Darren, in this "war on terrorism" we
cannot be too safe, can we, and thus we now share data between military,
intelligence, treasury, and domestic law enforcement...so hand over the cash
Mr. Darren."

Then I get a tip from my neighbor who is now a proud member of TIPPS, or
that program turning very bored noisy neighbors, politically adventurous
peers at work, and Wal-Mart senior greeters, into snoops for the government.
My TIPP neighbor says there is a tank parked across my home, she said
"looks like the same one from Waco!" and I go to inquiry and it says on the
side "multi-jurisdictional police task force" and I'm immediately told to
raise my hands and knell to the ground, close my eyes, because I'm a
"domestic dissenter."

Although the above is my fictional account, it could be accurate futurist
forecasting, who knows. Who'd ever think that a deadbeat dad would be
arrested in a Mad Mother's DUI checkpoint, not for drunk driving, but for
owing back payments on child support. Oh, better make sure you don't have a
cracked windshield, are uninsured, or any number of other things that
trigger the officers to run you through the NCIC (National Crime Information
Computer) making sure you too are not wanted for "terrorism" which will
cover everything else.

Before we called all of this obtrusive and a threat if not breach, to our
Constitution. Today, everyone in unison repeating after Tom, Dan or Peter,
seems to say "we gotta do this because of the war on terrorism." And as I
reminded people on this list very shortly after 9/11, just who is being
criminalized in this incremental police-military state America has been
converted to.

We are closer to the edge, than the mirror reflects.
