Are my online friends for real?

BBC News article asks the question: Are my online friends for real? It seems that online impostors are not unknown - and this includes impostors for hire:

He wrote: "I met somebody the other day who told me that online networking was so important, and he didn't have the time, he was paying somebody to be him online. To blog, network, post etc. £1,000 a month too.

"Apparently it's a new occupation which he reckons already numbers hundreds of people, paid to be other people!"

Not Dead Yet: Immigration Bill Fragments to Get Third Chance

via Debbie Schlussel by Debbie on Jun 29, 2007

By Debbie Schlussel

As Mark Twain might say, reports of the Immigration Bill's death have been highly exaggerated.

The bill might have been killed for the second time, but today's Wall Street Journal reports that at least three key parts of it may still have life (one of which, the Dream Act, I've previously written about). Yes, it's like Freddy Kruger. The bill never completely dies. These, too, must be killed:

It ain't over 'til it's over.
