POPS7 Google searches I wish I could take back ! Google’s Web History was activated by default. I had a tough time explaining the motivation behind a few of them. ;-) Some were a little scary and others were downright hilarious, but one point became clear: If you’re not careful, Google will know every move you make on the web… the good, the bad, and the ugly.

POPSMugabe's militia burn opponent's wife alive I've got to stop reading the news. This is beyond depressing. I can not imagine living in such a world. Perhaps we could send Sen.

He's right up there with Saddam and his sons and the rule of fear and oppression.
