Breaking News!
One of the joys of living in a small town (the last census measured the population at a robust 716) is reading the police ticker in the local (weekly) paper. This is a run down of all the calls police responded to in the last week, usually ranging from domestic disputes to petty robberies. Here's my favorite item from last week's police reports:
Responded to possible death complaint at 3219 Meadowview Lane.*
I just have to know...what is a "possible death complaint"? And what is the appropriate response to said complaint?
*address changed

Overheard...
Two older men (probably in their 70s) in the waiting room of the doctor's office were watching the news and talking about current events. One says to the other, shaking his head sadly: "I don't understand the American people. We've been over there for six years killing those people, and then we go and put one of 'em in the White House."
"Those people"?!?! Really? And who exactly would "those people" be? African-Americans? People who can make it through a speech without sputtering out incoherent sentence fragments? OH...he must have meant Muslims. Because everyone KNOWS Barack Obama is a secret radical Muslim. You know, those Islamic extremists just LOOOOVE the people who keep their faith secret.
On a slightly unrelated note...if you have a few minutes, check out the videos below. For the pressed-for-time, the first video is only a few seconds; the second is about 5 minutes (but WELL worth it).

And we're back...
Or, at least, I'm back. Unless you want to count the voices in my head...
And I'm back with something just for you! It's a funny website! Aren't you just quivering with excitement? Go there now by clicking here. I have to say, the website it funny because it's true. Seriously, look at the Full List, and tell me it isn't true.
