I don’t know why but kids and grown-ups all find skulls cool. Would Rock & Roll have been invented without skull images? What about pirates? Would we remember them if their flag had been lollipops or squirrels? Who figured out that skulls were cool? What makes them cool? There are a lot of questions people can’t answer, that’s for sure.

Introduction
I have been blasting a handful of you about the things I encounter at the intersection of Intellectual Property Rights, Content Creation, The Law, Liberty, and General Net Surfing. After getting a couple of requests to open up the circle, I migrating the blast to this blog. I definitely could use some help stocking this blog, so let me know if you have some ideas.
Electing Not To
Okay, if November 2nd is Election Day, what’s today? I like the idea that on August 2nd we get to ELECT NOT TO. I would love a website that had ALL of the things we could elect not to participate in. The benefits of doing nothing can never be over rated (say, have you seen The Tao Of Steve ever?). Unfortunately, in today’s world, we have to act to get back to that state. The assault has been on us for all too long.
What A Beautiful World!
But does it take technology to recognize it? Here are 30 Incredible Abstract Images Taken By Satellite of Our Earth. G’head, take 60 seconds and give your eyes a feast. It’s The Bahama’s Sand Reef above, and the world’s tenth largest river, The Lena in Russia below.
Best Friends Of A Lion
My apologies for the cheezy song playing in the back ground of this video, but keeping with the recent animal theme, we had to put this in The Bowl. And double apologies for the sappy sentiments at the end; it makes you wonder why people can’t trust the power of images and why they have to repeat what has already been said. All that said, it’s nice to see such a friendship. Maybe we should set all the pets free and see if they come back to us…
