Taliban Telemarketers (New Flash Animation) Some Of My Best Work Ever.
Please,

Take a few minutes to watch this new Flash animation. I think it is some of my best stuff to date. It is a PSA from the NSA explaining why they are invading our protected privacy rights featuring the posterboy for reposnsible government use of surveillance info, J. Edgar Hoover.

Unfortunately, I suffered a catastrophic data loss when transferring these files and lost the original file. As such, I can't add the preloader screen I was going to add so, be aware that it takes a minute to load. But, be patient. I think you'll find it worth the wait.

Please cheer me up. Check this out and let me know what you think. I am really bummed about the data loss. Fucking tragic glitch.

I've missed your flash videos. You have a certain style. I only wish you got J Edgar Hoover in a pink tutu. :)

What an anomoly that guy was. Ranks right up there with McCarthy, Nixon and of course this administration. They would have gotten along great. I'm sure Bushco could have taught the guy a few tricks.

6. Par excel-lance!
I think you could be right, but I say that about every one you do. I think they have grown progressively better each time.

29. Really Glad You Like It.
In my experience, when freedom is under attack by winger thugs, a little humor goes a long way.

27. Particularly Ironic Since One Of My Last Posts To You Said:
"Nothing is ever lost."

Should have knocked on some wood, thrown some salt over my shoulder, killed a rooster or something.

Oh well. At least the final product survived intact. That is the most important thing. Would have hated starting over from scratch.

37. Once again, Your point is on target.
You and I know what's going on.
Well crafted, politically subdued to give it real nuance and meaning to the populace.
Nominated.
