Sucks like a Hoover
If you are looking for the truly ridiculous, look no further than Austin, Texas. And no, before you ask, we are not going to waste time Bush-bashing right now. 7 million other blogs are already doing that, and rightly so.
Our topic of the day is Ms Tamara Hoover, high school art teacher first and reasonably hot chick second. Her topless art photos on MySpace.com has come to the attention of the school board, who have put her on a leave awaiting her final dismissal.
Some key words here: art class teacher - artistic photos - topless. Not nude, certainly not porn. Turns out only about 10% of the pictures of her are of this variety in any case; the rest are fully clothed. But judge for yourself: This search will take you to 600+ photos of her. Some good, some bad, some interesting, but we'd be hard pressed to find something even mildly arousing. It is apparent though that she is in a relationship with the female photograper, so maybe discrimination of gays is the real issue here. Not that that speaks any better of the school board.
We suppose there are countries where such photos would have implications for someone's job or social standing. Iran, Saudi Arabia and Syria comes to mind...
The reason for mentioning this sad example of misguided morals and anal retentiveness in the BeCyberSafe blog is simply to remind you all that what you put on the net stays on the net for all time and for anyone to see. Ah, and also to offer an ounce of support for freedom in the world. Even in Texas.
