Since some security guards do not value freedom of speech and love to stop photographers from doing their job, here is a downloadable “Your Rights and Remedies When Stopped or Confronted for Photography” – which fits right into your wallet.

Very handy!

Sometimes I come across a site where I wonder on whether the maker is a genius, or has way too much time on his (rarely: her) hands.

If you, like me, dig/love/like/enjoy the tv-series 24, you might enjoy a site where you can follow our hero Jack Bauer.

JackbauerphoneI wonder if the end of episode 4 that I saw is the real deal, or if they put that version out to build some hype? That’s the fun thing with 24 – you can never be sure. They are not afraid to kill their darlings.

Thanks to some connections, I got to see a preview of the first 4 episodes of the 6th season. As always, very well made – and the villans are so much more believable than the good guys. Except for Kiefer Sutherland that is.

Hey, thanks to Wikipedia I learned that Jack Bauer is of German descent. Hmm… I went to a class with a guy called Bauer – maybe they are related? )

Oh; can´t get enough of Jack? Hop over to Blogs4Bauer.

Oh; if you have got enough, blogoshere caters also for your twisted feelings. Enjoy Why24sucks.
