Dumbest news story of the week:
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090611/ap_on_re_us/us_new_cloud

Iowa woman's photo sparks push for new cloud type.

The picture looks like clouds I see here in Oklahoma all the time. Why are the papers, the tv, the internet, all full of non-news stories so much of the time. Remember the good old days when we could get news abut things like war, genocide, nuclear proliferation, economic trouble and the like? Good thing none of that stuff is happening anymore.

1. That is not the best photo of the clouds
I saw a different photo of the clouds and they really looked ominous and nothing like I have ever seen.
I think this new type of cloud is another indication of climate change, a very newsworthy topic.

3. That's the photo I was thinking of
The cloud formation looks more like an oil painting than real clouds.

5. "It looked like Armageddon," said Wiggins (there you have it)
It looked emotional, like something from a movie, where God was about to fuck with Egypt big time.
