Really Guys, I Need Your Help

So I’ve got a situation now where as soon as I post anything good, my server gets taken out. This is a server I need to USE every day for all sorts of stuff, so having it taken out every time a post isn’t really an option.
I’ve got a TON of new stuff all ready to post, and I’m basically afraid to because of this issue.
Several of you have offerred to help me torrent in the past. Please materialize again so that I can start making clips available for everyone again.
Another option might be temporary mirrors. If you’d like to donate some space for (hopefully) this week only, this is the stuff I’m trying to post:
1) Daily Show clip from Feb 16 on bloggers.
2) Lewis black clip from Feb 16
3) Frontline clips (3 five minute clips) on the meat industry
4) Larry Lessig’s west wing clip
5) 60 minutes on Tom Delay
If you’d like to volunteer to mirror a clip for me, then I could post the clip that goes with it.
Otherwise, I’ll have to trickle these out over the next week or two, I guess.
talk to me people.
thanks,
lisa

Trying To Set Up Blog Torrent

So I’m trying to set up a blog torrent server so the world will be a better place for everyone. And I’ve followed the instructions so far (download the zip file, unzip it, upload it to a directory on your server). And now I sort of don’t know what to do.
Am I done guys? Do these things just generate themselves now? 🙂
thanks,
lisa

Does Anyone Have The Lessig West Wing Episode?

Hi guys,
I’m trying to locate either a small clip or the entire West Wing episode where Larry Lessig is portrayed.
I’ve been contacted by a lot of folks looking for it, and I’d love to have it in the library, so please gimmie a ping if you have it and we can coordinate getting me a copy so I can make it available for everyone.
thanks!

Tell Me What The Best “Family Tree” Program Is

Well, it’s that time again folks. Time for me to ask you guys about a couple things I’m looking for, so you can save me a bunch of time looking.
The first thing I’m looking for is some advice on a Family Tree program.
You know the kind, it lets you enter in a bunch of relatives and then generates a family tree map from the information.
Thanks in advance for the great advice 🙂

Stephen Colbert On NPR’s Fresh Air

This is from the January 24, 2005 program of Fresh Air with Terry Gross.
It’s pretty cool. Colbert discusses his ideology and protocol for comedy. Specifically, what he considers fair comedy, and what kinds of comedy aren’t allowed. He has rules. Neat interview. Check it out.

The Daily Show Covers Dean’s Winning The DNC Chair Spot

These are from the February 14, 2005 program.
The first one is kinda funny, as well as being newsworthy and rather informative.
The second clip (movie on the DNC convention) just isn’t all that funny, but it’s still sort of informative.
