Actually, you can. But that only goes for digital communication. Voice is possible, but more difficult. Analogue communication is nearly impossible to monitor everything on.

I saw something about that earlier. Did France even have an FDA-equivalent to approve such a thing?

If the black colour additive is legal, I don't see why they should not be allowed to sell black burgers. Also, most developed countries have something resembling FDA.

Colouring reagents are in every food you eat, you'd eat black candy right? That said, it really doesn't look appetizing.

So I can't find the story on their website, but the news just said that Florida is moving to reinstate Don't Ask, Don't Tell for the state National Guard. The smart cheddar is on this passing and being implemented.

Fuck.

This.

State.

For perhaps some less depressing news, Rick Perry gets 1% of the votes in the New Hampshire primary.

I know he didn't even try, but the fact that he's so abysmally low (even lower than Rick Santorum and the undecided vote) is greatly amusing to me.

Well good

If Rick Perry had a chance at all I would be afraid of this country.

Not that I'm not already at least...

Btw, Rick Santorum, Newt Gringich and (I think) Rick Perry have sworn to ban porn if they get elected. I think these guys might actually be retarded.
