Most predictable headline, ever:

Robertson suggests God smote Sharon

Massachusetts dam threatens to flood town

I thought water was usually responsible for flooding, not dam materials.

The rather Dickensonian first line of the lead story in the Pawtucket paper (print edition!):

Whoever shot Marcos Cruz made sure he was dead.

I'm not quite sure why I find that so funny...

CNN used the cousin of the dumbest. graphic. ever.

Okay, say it with me: Worst. Graphic. Ever.

Just for completeness, it came with this article.

In an article on CNN, Biloxi Mayor A.J. Holloway told the Biloxi Sun Herald referred to Katrina in the following way:

This is our tsunami

Which, to me, is a ridiculous statement. The Southern US had days to come to prepare for the storm that was coming and evacuate the most vulnerable areas. The residents of the Indian Ocean region, where the December 26, 2004, tsunami that killed more than 226,000 hit, had moments to save themselves. They had no idea the tsunami was coming until they saw the wave.

Mayor Holloway, your comparison is faulty and rather insensitive. It shows your complete ignorance of world events and a complete lack of a scientific understanding of weather.

Add you name on a probe headed to Pluto. It will return to Earth in 50,000 years.

Peerflix is cool. Check it out.

A rather extensive Doctor Who .WAV Archive.

A neat way to find new music. I am not sure if I will go through the whole playlist creation thing, but it is helpful for finding new artists to put on my Rio.

Yeah, so you should buy something from this page so a friend of mine at work can become a millionaire.

Brain Ninjas are AWESOME.

This is a horrible thing to happen. But I ask, what am I supposed to think when the headline reads:

Families of battered unit are `just numb'

There must have been a better way to put that. I thought for a moment the Chicago Tribune had become a p0rn rag.

I call BS on the end of this article:

'Kids across the nation will soon rejoice,' said Upton, because they'll have another hour of daylight trick-or-treating.

No, they won't. The best part of trick-or-treating is being out in the dark. It is no fun to be wearing a scary costume in the daytime.

And thus we have an ending to the popcorn packer's lung stories from last year.

Ha ha! I love The Elements Song and this flash animation does a good job with it.
