On my way to work this morning, I stopped at a local coffee shop for a quick cup and took advantage of the internet connection they offer to do some of my morning surfing. But wait! thenorm.com, home of a comic strip I read daily, is blocked by CyberPatrol. Huh? This is a strip that runs daily in hundreds of newspapers, I don't think it's a danger to children. Perhaps they're put off by the word "strip."
And what's this? Velcrometer, a weblog that I've really come to enjoy reading, is also blocked. Perhaps he used the phrase "screwed by U-Haul" one too many times.
Oops, maybe now I'll be blocked. Stupid friggin' useless filtering software.
