1. Yeah, I heard more civilians and troops died yesterday.

But the Schiavo impasse is all over the news. I guess the administration needs a public perception boost in the compassion department.

2. I guess that's old news, more pressing issues like
Petersen/Jackson/Baretta/Schiavo have replaced it.

8. The term "info-tainment" seriously applies.
"News" is a dead word and an outdated concept.


Today, anything serious I need to know comes from my own active "research".

And anything I passively collect from big media is considered "info-tainment".

3. You must have missed it.
He landed on an aircraft carrier and said that the mission had been accomplished.

6. Which one?
the WMD one?
The Iraq was part of 9/11 one?
The bringing democracy one?
The pay for the cost of the occupation with Iraqi oil one?


On second thought, never mind, I can safely say NO, even for the REAL mission,the one to take control of Iraqi oil.
