the internet is not a truck.

i can't stop laughing at this senator ted stevens transcript regarding internet neutrality: found here.

my favorite parts:

Quote:
an internet was sent by my staff at 10 o'clock in the morning on Friday and I just got it yesterday. Why?
don't you hate it when someone sends you an internet and it doesn't show up in a timely manner?

Quote:
the internet is not something you just dump something on. It's not a truck. It's a series of tubes.
i know i hate it when i get my tubes and trucks mixed up. i would elaborate but what happens in vegas stays in vegas.

Quote:
And if you don't understand those tubes can be filled and if they are filled, when you put your message in, it gets in line and its going to be delayed by anyone that puts into that tube enormous amounts of material, enormous amounts of material.


and just for yucks, enjoy the daily show's coot-off.

Love is not a truck. Love is a series of tubes.

Just like the London Underground. Hot, cramped and occasionally smelly.

The internet is actually chain of paperclips wrapped around a massive ball of rubberbands. When you throw the ball at a co-worker, for instances, it may bounce and veer off in a whole different direction. If you throw the ball at a surfboard leaning against a fisherman's net on the wall of a beachhouse, however, it may cause the surfboard to fall over. This is what's known as surfing the net.
