I knew of the Monica and Bill activities. What I did not know was the word SlingBlade used. It took great effort to obtain the definition from my progeny due to extreme laughter about my not knowing the term. You would think my progeny would not mock Aunti as she taught the child and friends how to curse without getting in trouble. There was a particular teacher no one, students and parents alike had positive feelings about. After my lessons in large syllable words, one of the group informed the teacher one day they were full of deification. Because no curse word had been used, no disciplinary action could be taken. Several days later the Principal saw me in the hall. He looked me straight in the eye and said, "I see your hand in word usage amongst some of the students." He then laughed.
Now, go get smacked. BE WELL, that is an order!

Salutations; it's been forever, I apologize. I suppose I was distracted "what! with all the bikini Clad Super models poised on the Bow of my Sail boat" :) I had to throw that in there. Hey! If your going to "Drive it, Drive it like you stole it".
But seriously, here is another example of "Government Gone wild"
Another triumph of accountability for the Most T***sparent Administration In History was revealed today, as the Associated Press published a bombshell report about the widespread practice of Administration officials using secret email addresses to hide their correspondence from public information requests. Of course, the Associated Press knows all about the Administration's appetite for monitoring other people's email.
The most well-known, and darkly humorous, example of this practice came from former EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson, who created a phony employee named Richard Windsor to hide her communications. The phony employee went on to win awards from the EPA for his outstanding job performance and commitment to professional ethics.
It's beyond parody, but it's also deadly serious. The Administration falsely claimed that it includes all this hidden message traffic when it responds to Freedom of Information Act requests... but the AP could find only one instance where this ever actually happened. The Administration can't even respond to a FOIA request for the secret email addresses without stonewalling for months. Health and Human Services refused to disclose one address for Secretary Kathleen Sebelius until the AP gently pointed out that it had already been published on the HHS website.
Who knows what these secret communications channels have been used for? The Administration claims it's all an elaborate method of fighting spam - but every email user knows ways to do that without creating a bunch of different addresses. Federal record-keeping laws have been skirted. Officials like Sebelius and Jackson are already under fire for inappropriate coordination with outside special interests. Do the IRS officials who coordinated abuses of power against conservative groups throughout the 2012 e******n cycle have secret email addresses, too? What sort of messages might we find in their hidden inboxes?
Auntie, I rarely if ever post from reputable sources, however, I was discussing lisa Jackson in October, no one was listening. Even though she has already "stepped Down" from heading the EPA. which I am sure she did plenty of..Ooops, I apologize for my indiscretion.
Now her pseudo e-mail name is back in the spotlight. This is another one that I am positive Queenie will spin. any-hoo, I am distracted I will contact you later...:)
