Free Culture

I can’t stand reading anything extremely long on the computer. This includes the Free Culture e-book. So naturally I went to purchase this book so that I could read its greatness in the luxury of not using a computer. My sister took me to Barnes and Noble so that I could buy the book and Battlefield: Vietnam! Once I got there I realized that I couldn’t buy both of these things, or even one. So I decided that I would borrow money from my sister and buy the game. It made sense to buy the game because I knew that I could get the game now and then maybe persuade my mom into buying me the book, I wouldn’t be able to persuade her to buy me the game. So I got home and asked my mom to buy me the book and she asked me what it was about. I was prepared for this and told her that it was about ‘How Big Media Uses Technology and the Law to Lock Down Culture and Control Creativity.’ She immediately said that she wouldn’t buy it for me because it had do to with Adam and his fight to change copyright policies! That is absolutely silly, this book was not written by Adam! Then she told me that I could just go and buy the book myself, to which I responded that I would just go and read the book for free online! Anyways, we are not allowed to talk about Adam in our house anymore.

Adam, how do you set up a Paypal donation account so that people can send my mom money to buy the book for me?

    You’re not allowed to talk about me anymore at your house? Sheesh! If that’s the case, I doubt she would accept any donations that I set up towards the purchase of this book!

    We haven’t been able to talk about Adam at my house for years now.

    Whew… that’s good news. I was starting to think this was something new. Glad to hear it isn’t an epidemic!

    Does Kristi let you talk about yourself in your house?

    No. At least not after the “incident” with the fire extinguisher and the curtain clips.
