- More than 1,000 people in Haiti have died in an outbreak of cholera which has hospitalized over 14,000 people. There are half a million people in Haiti who are homeless since last winter’s earthquake. Many of them live in refugee camps with little or no clean water and little or no way to handle the sewage. That’s a recipe for a public health disaster if ever I heard of one. The US has yet to allocate as many resources as it might because the Haitian government is incredibly corrupt, so a lot of the money wouldn’t go where needed. It kind of makes you wish you could relocate the entire country, doesn’t it? Can anything really be done to help Haiti?
- According to the website of the British newspaper “The Guardian,” Paul and Rachel Chandler ‘free and safe’, say officials in Somalia after spending more than one year in captivity.” I’m happy the Chandlers are safe, but because of the incredible lawlessness there, I didn’t think they had officials in Somalia, did you?
- Does this seem strange to you? Every radio station I ever worked at had a general manager; not one radio station I ever worked at employed even a single general.
- If we lose an hour in the Spring and get it back in the Fall, without any interest at all, how exactly does daylight saving time save anything?
- Have you seen the TV spot for maxmyspeed.com? If they’ve invented time travel, I think they should come right out and say so. Don’t you? It’s either that or their advertising agency doesn’t understand math very well and that’s not a good thing for a technical company. One of the actors in the commercial says that maxmyspeed.com has increased the speed of her computer by 100 to 150%. If your speed increases 100% from what it was before, that means it now takes 100% less time than it once did or no time at all. If it increases 150%, it takes less than no time; you’ve invented time travel! Am I missing something?
- Why would anyone want a Labrador Retriever? In the first place, how could the dog bring Labrador here, and secondly, if it did, what the heck would you do with it?
