pagpasenyahan nyo na. the congressman is just looking for some love from the cellco’s. alam nyo naman, holiday season… :)

but you know, the congressman has a point ;). i’m going to help him draft legislation to combat another less-hyped technology for spreading porn: this filthy filthy development called *PAPER*. it’s far more damaging than broadband and 3G networks. you don’t need a computer or a cellphone, and it’s very very cheap (why, anyone can DRAW smut on these newfangled paper sheets). there ought to be a law!
