Paris Hilton

The Paris Hilton commercial for a hamburger chain which I've never heard of before is getting a lot of national publicity. The issue is that the commercial is being called "soft-core porn." I guess it adds new meaning to "Where's the beef!"

And the public decries such "indecency." But which web sites get the most traffic? Even the "family hour" on television is loaded with sex. And the "Victoria's Secret" commericals? Funny how we want it both ways. Does the word "hypocrite" come to mind?

24-hour cable news

24-hour cable news = 15 minutes of news, 24 hours a day!

Pat Tillman

The Army said that Pat Tillman died a heroic death, like John Wayne with guns blazing as the Taliban cut him down. 'Twasn't so. His own troops accidentally killed him. But the brass went with the guts and glory story. Just like that for Jessica Lynch. Disinformation is the hallmark of da neocons in DC!!!

The DC Metro

It's really great to ride the Metro in the Washington, D.C., area and see all the very important people. How can you tell who are the important ones? They're the one who sit in the aisle side of the seat with the window side empty, indicating "how dare anyone sit in this seat with me!"

And how about the folks who sneak their food? Two women, at different times, hunched over their purses sneaking little pieces of food or potato chips.... not unlike the squirrels on my back porch snatching the bird food out of the feeder. And they (the women, not the squirrels) know the signs are there that say eating food is, as the sign puts it, unlawful.
