<title>Soothing Parrot Sounds</title>
<link>http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/2033295/posts</link>
<description>You May Want To Pass This On To Your Enemies....I&#x26;#x92;ll admit that sometimes I may get on my parents&#x26;#x92; nerves, especially when I bark incessantly at the children getting off the school bus. But compared to this parrot, I could bark for 24 hours straight and still be considered the lesser of two evils. Take a look and see what you think....http://boknowsonline.com/2008/06/18/soothing-baby-parrot-sounds/</description>

<title>Clocky &#x26;#x96; The Alarm Clock That Runs Away</title>
<link>http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/1798593/posts</link>
<description>March 9, 2007 For people who have trouble dealing with an alarm clock telling them it&#x26;#x92;s time to get up, here&#x26;#x92;s one potential solution &#x26;#x96; it&#x26;#x92;s an alarm clock that runs away and torments you until you get up. When Clocky was just a design concept it received a lot of attention, but now it&#x26;#x92;s a real product. When the alarm sounds, Clocky will start beeping. You can set him to run away immediately the alarm sounds, or you can set it to snooze once for your chosen number of snooze minutes and if you don&#x26;#x27;t get up, Clocky will...</description>

<title>Why are politicians exempt for the Do Not Call Registry?</title>
<link>http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1734371/posts</link>
<description>Registered voters are very popular with campaign workers in the final hours before the mid-term election. Both the Democrats and Republicans in Pima County put an army of volunteers to work as the deadline drew closer. The politically passionate citizens were working the phones, dialing for votes in a last minute rush to get their candidates into office. They do it every election year but this year reports show political candidates are running more ads and making more calls than ever before. They believe it&#x26;#x27;ll bring out the vote, but some voters say it&#x26;#x27;s making them think about skipping the...</description>

<title>Star Wars Character Voted Most Irritating Ever
</title>
<link>http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/1655291/posts</link>
<description>&#x26;#x22;Star Wars: The Phantom Menace alien Jar Jar Binks has been voted the most annoying film character of all time. In a poll of 5,000 movie fans by UK website LoveFilm.com, the computer generated Binks beat out competition from Andie MacDowell&#x26;#x27;s character, Carrie, in Four Weddings And A Funeral. Third most irritating is Rowan Atkinson&#x26;#x27;s Bean, followed in fourth place by Jim Carrey&#x26;#x27;s Ace Ventura: Pet Detective character. In fifth place is Ben Stiller&#x26;#x27;s White Goodman in Dodgeball.&#x26;#x22;</description>

<title>Malvo and the War Debate (ZOT!!! Why not to go off antipsychotic meds without a doctor&#x26;#x92;s guidance)</title>
<link>http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1640058/posts</link>
<description>I am curious why none of the media covers the most important aspect of the Malvo shootings. If you look at Newspapers on the dates when the shootings are underway you discover something I find quite interesting. The shootings begin to dominate the news the day before the debate on the Iraq war starts and they catch them the day after the declaration of war??? If you ask most people &#x26;#x22;do you remember the debate about starting the second Iraq war&#x26;#x22;, they will all answer &#x26;#x22;yes of course&#x26;#x22;. But if you followup with the question &#x26;#x22;name one point in the...</description>

<title>What is a FReeper? (zot)</title>
<link>http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/1640747/posts</link>
<description>I recently received a reply to a post that stated: &#x26;#x22;This should be beneath a &#x26;#x22;freeper&#x26;#x22;. Sad.&#x26;#x22; So I asked.. what is it that makes a FReeper? My reply (and I will admit was tasteless) was also questioning. It stirred controversy and was removed? Why Moderators? Can you not tell me? Did it not meet with your &#x26;#x22;FReeper&#x26;#x22; mentality? According to all posted guidelines it should be listed but no, you chose to delete it. Yes.. I&#x26;#x27;m the first one IBTZ, I&#x26;#x27;m sure you&#x26;#x27;ll nick me for speaking up..</description>

<title>A special message from the Department of Troll Control, come and get it!</title>
<link>http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/1556759/posts</link>
<description>Fellow Americans, there comes a time every mans life when we must give up ourselves before we are worthy to recieve. There comes a time in this war on terror when in order to protect liberty, we have to give it up in the mean time for safty. That&#x26;#x27;s right folks. Today, Americans have forsaken the creator for the creation and have decided that they would value our &#x26;#x22;civil liberties&#x26;#x22; than protecting western civilization and rich white people from the tender mercies of radical Islamic terrorists. Selfish liberals insist and whine that Bush has no right to spy on Americans...</description>

<title>Annoying someone via the Internet is now a federal crime.</title>
<link>http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1554663/posts</link>
<description>It&#x26;#x27;s no joke. Last Thursday, President Bush signed into law a prohibition on posting annoying Web messages or sending annoying e-mail messages without disclosing your true identity. In other words, it&#x26;#x27;s OK to flame someone on a mailing list or in a blog as long as you do it under your real name. Thank Congress for small favors, I guess. This ridiculous prohibition, which would likely imperil much of Usenet, is buried in the so-called Violence Against Women and Department of Justice Reauthorization Act. Criminal penalties include stiff fines and two years in prison.</description>

Yet the Supreme Court thre out sodomy laws in all 50 states and recognized the right of government to seize land for any reason. And you couldn&#x26;#x27;t pass your Social Security changes could you? Sorry, that was your last shot. Come November, we&#x26;#x27;re going to start seeing more Democratic faces in the House. It&#x26;#x27;s the end for you guys. You guys are celebrating when Bush&#x26;#x27;s numbers go *up* to 45%. Then Faux...</description>

<title>Bush&#x26;#x27;s Job Growth WORST in 50 Years (Roll out the red carpet for this &#x26;#x93;staunch Bush supporter.&#x26;#x94;)</title>
<link>http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1551102/posts</link>
<description>Bush&#x26;#x92;s giant Right Wing Noise Machine (RWNM) loves to preach about the Bush economic miracle. In fact, the RWNM&#x26;#x92;s current thinking is Bush doesn&#x26;#x92;t spend enough time talking about his economic triumphs. If only he did, then everyone would fall in line and believe in the great Bush economic miracle. There is one problem with this argument: it&#x26;#x92;s a lie. Any way you look at the Bush economy, it comes up short. Today, I want to compare Bush&#x26;#x92;s job creation record with other economic recoveries. As usual, Bush comes up way short. The national Bureau of Economic Research has identified...</description>

<title>SICK OF PEOPLE IMPOSING THEIR RELIGOUS BELIEFS ON OTHERS</title>
<link>http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1547699/posts</link>
<description>After reading all of the crap that people have been saying regarding Adult Private Social Clubs, I felt that I had to post an article and give my opinion. I am sick and tired of all the religous groups that are saying that there are drugs, prostitution, minors, non-consenting people, and just immoral people at these clubs! First of all, who do these people think they are to decide what is morally right or wrong for me? I believe that I have a good set of morals. I am a law abiding, tax paying citizen, I work full time and...</description>

<description>Lies of omission about 9/11 -- stoking fears of terrorism THEY WANT YOU TO BE AFRAID The following post was censored by freerepublic.com shortly after it was posted on their &#x26;#x22;public&#x26;#x22; forum on 9/11/04. That forum is designed to appear as though it is a community forum open to all, but this post only received three responses before it and its replies were deleted, and a repeat posting at 4 am PST on 9/20/04 didn&#x26;#x27;t stay online for 5 minutes! Someone is apparently watching closely over the content of the freerepublic.com forums and censoring them 24/7 (though they might have...</description>

<title>Noise Machine Deters Shop Gangs</title>
<link>http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1539388/posts</link>
<description>A shop manager&#x26;#x27;s annoyance over problem teenagers hanging around his store is being tackled head on with a noise nuisance device. The Mosquito, which sends out high-pitched soundwaves, is persuading gangs to move on. Robert Gough, who runs the Spar shop in Barry, says the new nine-inch box is a success. As treasurer of PACT (Preventing Anti-Social Crime Together), Mr Gough hopes more businesses will be helped. It&#x26;#x27;s like a buzzing noise. I didn&#x26;#x27;t know where it was coming from, it&#x26;#x27;s not terrible. Shopper Gerda Hunt The box, placed on the outside wall of the store, emits an 80-decibel pulsing...</description>

<title>Browser makers warned against ad-blocking</title>
<link>http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1429164/posts</link>
<description>The end of free Internet content will come when Web browsers start blocking online advertisements by default, a DoubleClick executive has warned. Bennie Smith, the online advertising network&#x26;#x27;s privacy chief, told ZDNet Australia the popularity of tools like Adblock -- an extension to the Mozilla Firefox browser -- which makes blocking online ads simple was tied to &#x26;#x22;a negative vibe against advertising in general&#x26;#x22;. However, only the online arena is able to easily produce and widely distribute such tools, he added. He said if a similar tool could be produced for newspapers, it would not be accepted by consumers. &#x26;#x22;You&#x26;#x27;d...</description>

<title>Communism and human nature (Bolshie Mod sez, Arise ye kittens of the earth!)</title>
<link>http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1377889/posts</link>
<description>Many argue that communism will never be possible because of &#x26;#x22;human nature&#x26;#x22;. The essence of this false argument is the belief that a communist society would consist of an all-powerful central government that would tell everybody what to do--and would therefore undermine the creative initiative of individuals and the search for happiness. &#x26;#x95; This argument is based on two false assumptions: (1) It assumes that a communist society will look like the former Soviet Union, or the current China, North Korea, etc (ie: corrupt police states with a feudal-style ruling class) (2) It assumes that people will only work in...</description>

<description>Gas costs so much. I cant afford it. Why want Bush do something? Don&#x26;#x27;t say he can&#x26;#x27;t. His daddy or his handlers could be on the phone in 2 minutes with the Rothchilds and by 1 week, oil prices would be under $20 and gas would be 1 dollar a gallon. You know it and I know it. Why want he? Do you know? Is there sombody we can call? Plaese advice.</description>

Val writes what getting a real meal is like in Havana... It&#x26;#x27;s a masterpiece of debunking. He floors the guy in that magnificent storytelling way that only he can. &#x26;#x3E;&#x26;#x3E;Revolutionary Cuban cooking!? I wonder if the maitre&#x26;#x27;d hands everyone a ration card when they walk in the door. Or if they make the cafe cubano like they have been making it in revolutionary Cuba.
