We might all have to accept living in glass houses ... and we'll discover ...

that you are weird ( and so is everyone else ) ...

it just a reminder of something we learned a while back ... there is No such thing as a Normal Person/Lifestyle.

But this includes ALL OF US ... government officials and corporate executives ought be forced into full disclosure as well.

Celebrities are leading the way ... by Twittering the mundane details of their inner lives ( it's kind of refreshing to discover that they are just as wierd as the lot of us).

Too many folks think they are "protected" because they use Firefox's new private browsing mode or a utility that deletes all the cookies, history of Websites visited, and temporary files from their PC.
