Silence is louder [9]
I’m here not alone, with thunder in the sky. Home!
Silence is louder [8]
Only rain able to greet me
Silence is louder [7]
Silence is louder [6]
Move on to the bright side!
Silence is louder [5]
Tranquility spark in the virtual world’s wilderness
Silence is louder [4]
Not speak up to the sun
Silence is louder [3]
Wondering where the sound goes down
Blue is the sky not enough to make it louder
Silence is louder [2]
Only the silent that is not as many
The Love of God
Could we with ink the ocean fill
And were the skies of parchment made,
Were every stalk on earth a quill
And every man a scribe by trade,
To write the love of God above
Would drain the ocean dry,
Nor could the scroll contain the whole
Though stretched from sky to sky.

Human knowledge belongs to the world. [Antitrust]
Don’t Pay For Pirates!!! If U Have Money And Like It You Must Buy It! [hacker-vip@blogspot]
Update [1]: And here’s the rule: A Pirate’s Code of Conduct [Gizmodo]
Article One
Every man shall upload half of what he downloads, with the saints filling in the rest. It’s like tossing back a tiny fish so that it may grow into a great whale…only so we can hunt said whale and feast on its blubber during a later voyage.
Article Two
TV is to be downloaded, movies are to be attended when a man returns to shore. If ye aren’t a Neilsen family, what you watch doesn’t matter for ratings anyway. Since advertisers pay by rating, it’s a theft-less crime. Movies, on the other hand, do see profits of gold and jewels. So support independent/foreign film in the theaters, and save the action flicks with high production values and many beautiful explosions for the big screen, too. Hollywood romantic comedies? They are for plundering (in secret).
Article Three
A man shall steal as much music as he needs to quench his thirst, assuming that he supports the band by attending concerts and buying t-shirts. One should always buy the work of an indie label, however, if the music is deemed pleasant after the new moon, it’s time for purchasing.
Article Four
Ye wouldn’t be a pirate if ye didn’t download Photoshop. But for the office, such manners are frowned upon. Make your employer pay so that others may play. And if a man spends his life building a $10 app, that man has earned his $10. Toss him a coin should you requisition his services.
Article Five
Pornography can keep a man company at sea, but always avoid that dealing with husbandry. Girlfriend sharing is OK, assuming the missus knows she’s on the Bay. (We’re pirates, not douchebags.)
Article Six
JK Rowling’s booty is apt for plundering, but her’s is a rare case indeed. If a book be in the library and tis in stock, one could make an argument to download for free. But our conscience dictates that we buy some books to keep good writers in print.
Article Seven
If at any time a man should download a virus, that man must notify the message board immediately. If at any time a man should actively upload a virus, no retributive measure shall be deemed too brutal. An arse becomes fair game for a hook.
Article Eight
After you try it, if you really like it and can afford to do so, buy it.
