Stop S.O.P.A.

Today blog is not related to anything nerd. Today it is about a bill in congress that is called S.O.P.A. or Stop Online Piracy Act. Now I heard about this while watching an escapist review of The Muppets. so I look it up on the Google and here is what I found out The bill's goal is simple stop online piracy however to do that the U.S government would have the power to make search sites like Google and Yahoo! remove the site from its searches and make payment processors like PayPal stop business with any site it finds committing piracy. The Bill has good intention but to quote an old adage the path to hell was paved with good intentions. This bill violates two freedoms the freedom of speech and the freedom of information. The U.N. declared the internet a human right and I agree with them because this bill would restrict that right. So in short I ask you to contact you Congressmen and implore them to vote down this bill. if you don't know who your congressmen is then go to http:/

So I come home from work (yes I'm working now so blogs are less frequent but not stopping like with school) and I sat down and watched my Friday cartoons on my DVR and among the new Young Justice and ThunderCats  is the 1 hour premier of Green Lantern: The Animated Series. So I watched and a studied it as I looked on to this story that follows two of the more popular GLs Hal "High Ball" Jordan and GL Drill Sargent Kilowog. The story is pretty basic to start with a GL is killed and 18 months later (I'll get to that one in a bit) his ring shows up during a disciplinary action hearing for Hal. The Lantern killed is not a lantern of the 3000 know sectors if space but from what the show calls the frontier sectors so far away that it takes 18 months at top flight speed. So Hal and Wog "borrow" a prototype star cruiser and head out their to check in on these frontier lanterns and find out who is killing them. during this mission they meet the newly formed Red
