I'm back from visiting folks. Today, as I have to work tomorrow. So let's see a bit of what I missed the last couple of days...
CSI: Jersey doesn't quite make the grade, it would appear:
‘Jim, I have now checked with Lenny,’ said the email. ‘The bone was sent to the UK to be dated. There is no scientific dispute regarding the fact that it is human.’
But as The Mail on Sunday revealed last week, the Oxford Radiocarbon Accelerator Unit, one of the world’s top bone-dating laboratories, had been telling Mr Harper for
weeks it was not bone.
Further in Britain, things are still going to hell on a greased brass incline. First in loss of respect for life, and loss of understanding of one fact:
Lack of respect for life,
A teenage actor in the new Harry Potter film was stabbed to death in the street early yesterday in a row over a mobile phone.
Robert Knox, 18, who plays a trainee wizard in the movie, died trying to protect his 17-year-old brother Jamie from a frenzied knife attack outside a bar at around 1am.
and lost understanding of an important fact,
Robert’s 16-year-old cousin Vicky May said: ‘Rob had a great acting career ahead of him. He wasn’t violent, he wasn’t in any gang.
This wasn’t about gangs, this was about stupid people carrying knives.’
Doesn't say anything about it, but wouldn't surprise me if the dirtbag is in a gang but what I'm after is the second: it's not 'stupid people carrying knives', it's evil people who don't care about the lives of others.
And while things like this are going on, we have the authorities wanting to cut down a tree, seeing a similar threat to discarded used-by-junkies need.es in the needles of the tree:
‘Every effort is made in this day and age to prevent children playing with discarded syringe needles,’ a report stated.
‘Every effort must be made to prevent children coming into contact with these potentially, equally sharp needles.’
Attaboy, just ignore the bullcrap you in some cases cause in peoples' lives, and threaten the tree. Real efficient, you people are.
Jeez.
Let's see, tornadoes and severe storms... Damn, in Mexico and South America looks like nine volcanoes erupting, and one up in the Aleutian Islands. That's something I still want to see someday, an erupting volcano. Just not from "We're all gonna die!" range as a pyroclastic flow comes down the slope.
And they're not really news, but Theo takes note of a new target stand(Only Available in Communist and Other Dictatorships), and an old story Barack "Don't talk about me!" Obama should pay attention to:
Hillary Clinton goes to a primary school in New York to talk about the world. After her talk she offers a question time.
One little boy puts up his hand. The Senator asks him what his name is?
'Kenneth.'
'And what is your question, Kenneth?'
'I have three questions:
First - Whatever happened to the medical health care plan you were paid to develop during your husband's eight years in the office as President?
Second - Why would you run for President after your husband shamed the office?
Third - Whatever happened to all those things you took when you left the White House?'
Just then the bell rings for recess. Hillary Clinton informs the kids that they will continue after recess. When they resume, Hillary says,
'Okay, where were we? Oh, that's right, question time. Who has a
question?'
A different little boy puts his hand up. Hillary points to him and asks him what his name is.
'Larry.'
'And what is your question, Larry?'
'I have five questions:
First - Whatever happened to the medical health care plan you were paid to develop during your husband's eight years in the office as President?
Second - Why would you run for President after your husband shamed the office?
Third - Whatever happened to all those things you took when you left the White House?
Fourth - Why did the recess bell go off 20 minutes early?
Fifth - What happened to Kenneth?'
