This Week in Ridiculousness

  • People actually waited three to four hours or even days in the rain or under the sun to get a cell phone.
  • General McChrystal runs seven to eight miles, eats one meal and sleeps only four hours a day.  I guess that explains his poor judgment:  allows a Rolling Stone reporter to get so close to his inner circle and vents his frustration over the Obama administration.  Of course the Iceland volcano with the impossible name was to blame too.
  • John Isner and Nicolas Mahut plays the longest tennis match at Wimbledon in human history:  3000 hours or something.  Isner won.
  • BP continues its epic oil spill unabated while I take out my recycle every Tuesday.

  1. the most ridiculousness is many Americans, like you, have no interest in FIFA World Cup though the US team went to the 2nd round

    Folks like McChrystal and Petraeus are not like us. They rise early for long runs. By contrast, we are normal people because we only run when we see an ice cream truck pulling away.

Civil War (2024)

This is basically a Dorothy yellow brick road kind of story.  Also, something to do with the new replaces the old, the circle of life thing....
