Do you read - Einstein?

Just where was Scappleface written in the title in the side bar? There was only the title - no author......., no source ON THE SIDEBAR.

Now, can you understand that?

The title (without any source whatsoever) appeared in the Sidebar under News/Activism. Therefore, anyone scanning the titles would assume that Bush had written a reply to Cindy. It was misleading and a typical type of action that would be done by the MSN.

Right, when one clicks on the article and reads it - AND happens to notice the source AND happens to know that usually Scappleface prints funny takeoffs of events rather than actual events - all is fine.

It just should have appeared in the sidebar under News/Activism with (Scappleface) after the title - or something.

Now - if you cannot read this and understand - don't bother replying to me about "Einstein". I know full well what I am talking about but can't say the same for you.

Life is hard when you're stupid. I suppose you read everything that's in the sidebar and accept it as gospel without checking (1) the source and (2) the author. I'll bet you even skip over the fine print in contracts, ignore warnings on bottles of medication, ad infinitum. Exactly how many Darwin Awards adorn your mantle, Einstein?
