Followup: VA responds to theft of vets’ personal info
A notice on the front page of the Veterans' Administration website (www.va.gov) addresses the recent possible identity theft previously discussed here. The VA will be individually contacting vets who may have been affected, but if you aren't willing to wait for the wheels of bureaucracy to start turning you can call 1-800-FED INFO (333-4636) from 8am to 9pm EDT, Monday through Saturday.
The full text of the statement is inside.
Assorted links and musings for 25 May 2006
Some of these links are old ones that I had meant to post many moons ago but slipped through the cracks for one reason or another.
- Hysterically funny (Freudian?) slip by a TV newscaster. Notice how her partner keeps on rolling; that dude is cold.
- Darth Vader calls the Emperor to tell him that "they blew up the Death Star" (a couple of really good laughs in this one; from Adult Swim's Robot Chicken, via)
- Beautiful hi-res long exposure shot of a Space Shuttle launch (via)
- Curt went out and saw The DaVinci Code so you don't have to (his sentiments here).
- Our man Matt (from the exceptional political blog 1115.org) got himself a gig blogging about D.C. happenings for the Suicide Girls (a big congrats from all of us).
- I saw Mission: Impossible 3 and a brief review is forthcoming.
- I've had a lot of good stuff to say about current events but not the time to write about it.
