Several Small Things

1.  I am still annoyed with the media.  They went on and on about Ariel when he first had his stroke, but haven't updated the story in more than a week.  If he had been a high school girl lost on an island most of the media would be covering it like the world was coming to an end for weeks on end.
 
2.  I am very sorry for the loss of lives in the two recent mine tragedies in WV.  Having said that, I think I would be terrified to be a miner.  (After all I am afraid of cows and they aren't really all THAT dangerous, or so my wife keeps telling me.  But damn it those cows are much bigger than I am.)  The miner who survived the first situation continues to amaze people.
 
3.  My wife and I were in the car together the other day. (This seems to be a very rare occurance at the moment.) And she made an observation that I have and it is something that really doesn't make sense to me.  Why do smokers crack open a window in the car when they are driving.  If they really like smoking so much, and are really like the smell of the smoke, why not just keep the window closed.

Comments:
The local stations are reporting today that Randal McCloy is out of his coma! YAY! Still a lot of issues though and I am not altogether sure he'll ever be the "same" again.

And re: Sharon. I completely agree with you. If it was Dimwit, er, I mean W...they'd never let it go. We'd be getting updates by the second.
 
Anth:

I have to agree. The stupidity of some of the way things are done in this country is just back-assward.
