>A TV news reporter in Chicago was canned earlier this week for being at the home of a murder suspect, an event which was caught on video and broadcast by a rival station. She and her kids were by his pool and she was in her bathing suit. This was on the day the guy's wife disappeared. A conflict of interest, obviously, but I still think it was the bathing suit that got her fired.

Though a good deal is too strange to be believed, nothing is too strange to have happened.
- Thomas Hardy
Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm-- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves.
-- T. S. Eliot
Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for lunch.
Liberty is a well-armed sheep contesting the vote.

Pardon him, Theodotus. He is a barbarian, and thinks that the customs of his tribe and island are the laws of nature.
