Overslept

A woman in Missouri touched off a propane explosion - with her remote control. Aaack.

Sasha Fierce is actually not Tyra Banks.

Miss Teen Louisiana FAIL.

There is so, so much you could do with this headline.

There's a bit of a disconnect going on between the article, its headline, and the photo illustration. By "scientists try to stop hunger with retooled foods," they mean that they're trying to suppress the supposedly boundless Western appetite ... not help that poor little starving girl. Editor FAIL.

Ever seen the word "walloping" in a news article?

I'm heading home to Bethel this afternoon. Friday I'll be gathering job applications for the winter, and Saturday and Sunday I'll be in (hopefully sunny) Miami.
