Go Librarians! *Wuff*Wuff*Wuff*Wuff*

It's not often that librarians score a political victory, so I feel obliged to cheer them on now that the House has blooked the Patriot Act provision that allowed surveillance of library records.

Unfortunately, this morning's news consumption was a good-news-bad-news thing, as I heard on NPR that photographers are being questioned and sometimes detained by police who think it's now illegal to photograph bridges, public buildings, infrastructure, etc. (It's not.)

Oy!

I hope they don't discover any of the pictures of me and my sister with the Golden Gate bridge in the background from a decade ago.
