You see, according to *Cacteau's* plan. *I'm* the enemy. Because I like to think, I like to read. I'm into freedom of speech, freedom of choice. I'm the kind if guy who would sit in the greasy spoon and think "Gee, should I have the T-bone steak or the big rack of Barbecued spare ribs with the side order of gravy fries?" I *want* high cholesterol. I want to eat bacon, butter and buckets of cheese alright? I want to smoke a Cuban cigar the size of Cincinatti in a non-smoking section. I wanna run around naked with green jell-o all over my body reading a Playboy magazine. Why? Because maybe I feel the need to okay pal? I've *seen* the future, you know what it is. It's made by a 47 year-old virgin in gray pajamas soaking in a bubble bath, drinking a broccoli milkshake and thinking "I'm an Oscar-Meyer Wiener".Chiphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12251128534108054655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-80476615837469201282014-02-24T10:56:52.695-05:002014-02-24T10:56:52.695-05:00What the FCC proposes here is a "gatekeeper s...What the FCC proposes here is a "gatekeeper study." <br /><br />Graduate students have been doing them since middle of the last century.
