I was watching The Daily Show (er, well it's now A Daily Show during the writers strike) from last night and they aired a montage on Fox News about the cause of the economic downturn. And apparently it's not the subprime mortage crises, falling house prices, credit woes, or $100 a barrel oil. No no, it's the possibility of a Democrat winning the White House. Silly Fox News! It also reminded me of their infamous practice of making statements in the caption at the bottom with a question mark at the end, thus turning a blatant lie into an innocent question. For example, "The sky is green today" turns into "The sky is green today?" and bam, now it's no longer an outrageous claim but a news worthy question! How anyone could possibly think they aren't horrifically biased is beyond me.
The Onion once again reflects reality with their latest scoop, "Bill Clinton: 'Screw It, I'm Running For President'"
There's a lane merge on my route back home from work everyday, and for whatever reason, the sign that signals that the right lane is ending and to merge left, is over a half a mile before the lane actual ends, or about 30 to 40 seconds. So at least once a week I see a car forget that the lane is going to end, move over to the right lane, and then suddenly find themselves in running out of lane and swerve back to the original lane. I wonder how much work it would take to get the sign moved so it's a tad bit closer. Anyway, just a random observation.
