| 7. That's what I was thinking... |
|
We don't need anything scary happening (I certainly don't). Justsomething mindless like more JLo or NBA playoff coverage...

| 9. Meteor impacts anyone? |
|
They are due to start around now according to the "Aussie Bloke" insight (that has been talked about here). The end of half of civilisation by the end of the month?
Make a change from Ray-gun though. His funeral is even being televised in Australia... like any of us give a toss. I'd rather sit in the back yard and watch a nice meteor shower. I've got my surfboard waxed and ready for the tidal waves.

| 3. Yes, all cable news stations have... |

jumped the shark, the wall to wall coverage has been beyond the pale even for them. Constant footage of old farts bellowing and bawling waiting five hours for a bus to ferret them to the library and the phoney, wannabe yuppies showing up with their young children in tow at three and four o'clock in the morning to circle a flag draped coffin, is tantamount to child abuse in my opinion.
The news story of the day should have been the Ashcroft questioning and the smoking gun of the memos about torture tactics utilized and even sanctioned by this admin. But no, we get the sickening canonization of Raygun. The non stop coverage makes you want to scream at the TV, "Is the SOB still dead today, you mean he didn't rise up and head to the nearest body of water and walk on it so you could be the first to scoop the story?" Pathetic. I can't take it til Friday, I've started tuning into MTV and the Food Network.
