 Subject:   Industrial-Strength Christian Filters
My parents have a filter set up on our computer that is meant to block harmful sites. Normal-sounding stuff, right? Wrong. Okay, my dad is a preacher, so it must be a Christian filter. Yet again, not a huge problem.

Not a huge problem, that is, unless you have the super-duper industrial-strength nazi filter! This filter blocks myspace, facebook, and almost any website that you can imagine. Now, I can see why they would block myspace(though i have a lovely little proxy site for that: www.blowser.net), but they have just now crossed the line and have blocked THIS VERY SITE, so now I am obliged to get on the school's computers just to check my port or read reviews.

frustrating? overwhelmingly so. definitely worthy of a rant.

thanks for the rant space!
