Well, at least nobody watches MSNBC.

And who believes anything said on Larry King's show?

But yea, Fox blew the coverage.

>>...Of course, this is the reason I USED to carry a penlight on my keychain. Of course with the recent TSA rules I took it off so it wouldn't be confiscated...<<

This is the problem with the current security problem. Those of us who like to carry "survival" gear with us when we travel are not allowed to do so.

I like to carry items such as flashlights, Leatherman tool, etc. in case of emergencies. Not allowed anymore.

We've been reduced to helpless sheep.

Reporting from Times Square -- crowded with onlookers who want to see it dark. Reporter commenting "when was the last time you could see the stars from Times Square?"

In their heyday, everything... and nothing... That short little Mr. Lay from Enron showed up at an East Central Relaibility Council meeting 3 or 4 years ago - that ought to indicate how much credence reliability has been given in the industry of late.

Interesting link.

I was always under the impression that the copper and nickel mines in the Sudbury basin of Ontario are all open-pit mines. Sudbury may very well be the ugliest city in North America, due to the scarred landscape and piles of mine tailings.

I don't think there is a word bad enough to describe the Hildebeest.

I join your rant. I had not heard Wilson's comment regarding President Bush. Unless a slip of the tongue that is immediately corrected, that is not an acceptable mistake to make.

Look how the press treats different politicians. They cannot say they treat all with skepticism. Keith Olberman practically crowed that this story overshadowed the capture of the Al Qaeda member today and so President Bush didn't get the attention he normally would have. In comparison Hillary spews her obviously partisan spin on this situation *unchallenged*.

After CNBC, Hillary will do Al-Jazeera next and then the French and German networks.

You don't expect them to lay the blame where it should be, at the feet of the Greens and the politicians who enable them. She's one of them.

Where are all these people going to go to the bathroom?

Before I left my building this afternoon I took a leak in the pitch-black men's room on my floor. LOL.
