We are Anonymous.
We are Legion.
We do not forgive.
We do not forget.
Expect us.

Bar Code Tattoo Photo Gallery

Bar code tattoos are always popular. Given that I've worked with barcodes for 20+ years you'd think I'd have gotten a barcode tattoo by now.

But no. The closest I get is enjoying photos of other people's barcode tattoos.

Oh, and I'm not a tattoo stalker. I'm inked. It's just not a barcode tat.

Tajikistan Blocks Facebook So I've Mirrored the Article

Tajikistan is censoring the web including blocking Facebook because of an unflattering article about government. So I've taken it upon myself to mirror that page on JetCityOrange. Remind me to do sh*t like this more often.

JetCityOrange is now on Pinterest (finally)

I've been reading about Pinterest for some time now. I realized it's something you have to do to get. Standing on the sidelines isn't playing the game.

If nothing else, Pinterest seems to be different not yet-another me too wanna be. So, I joined. Now JetCityOrange is on Pinterest.

Let the games begin!

Seattle Police Dept. & #OccupySeattle

As many of you know, I'm deep into the #Occupy movement. My early involvement with #OccupySeattle including but was not limited to videotaping arrests as a witness. Long story short, I edited out one instance of police action that was a.) not representative of the Seattle Police Department and b.) outside of acceptable behavior by a police officer IMHO. I filed a formal complaint through OPA even though the action wasn't directed at me. Today I have the opportunity to sit down with the officer in question along with a mediator. The happy conclusion? The officer and I shared openly and honestly. We watched the video I shot. Officer JL was honest, forthright, and professional, and for that, I thank him from the bottom of my heart.

Om mani padme hum!
