A gov't sponsored study says that only 1% of the internet is porn. Huh, go figure!

In other news, Toys for Tots rejected Jesus dolls.

Michael La Roe, director of business development for [the manufacturer/donating company], said the charity's decision left him "surprised and disappointed."

"The idea was for them to be three-dimensional teaching tools for kids," La Roe said. "I believe as a churchgoing person, anyone can benefit from hearing the words of the Bible."

According to the company's Web site, the button-activated, bearded Jesus, dressed in hand-sewn cloth outfits and sandals, recites Scripture such as "I tell you the truth, no one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born again" and "Love your neighbor as yourself." It has a $20 retail value.

[Bill] Grein [VP of the Marine Toys for Tots program] questioned whether children would welcome a gift designed for religious instruction.

"Kids want a gift for the holiday season that is fun," he said.

also, considering how many webpages are out there on the intarnets, 1% is still kind of a lot of porn.

Sadly, I haven't seen Avenue Q, but I've heard of the song none-the-less.
