Stories of the week...

I could fill pages and pages of this blog with stories that are already out there about people and human interest. I am not going to do that. What am I going to do is show you a few things I have found today and maybe comment on them...here we go.

The Spanish Basketball Team.

This is a "what were they thinking" scenario. I am sure they meant no harm but because they did it, I think it's kind of funny. Here is the picture that they ran in a full page advertisment for the Beijing Olympics. Notice they are making slanty eyes?

The USA 4x100 Freestyle Relay Team. Can you say "French Toast"?

Because of copyright issues I cannot post the actual video. You can read the article and watch the relay (which if you have not seen it by now you must live in a cave with Osama. Oh...and Osama called and he just watched it recorded on betamax so he has seen it too).

Jump to the video here.

Yawn...

Does anyone care any longer about a presidents race (if you do care, you probably go noodlin' for a past time and whistle Dixie while brushing your tooth)? Does anyone really care if it is a man or a woman? Does anyone care how tall a presidential candidate might be...whoa...this guy does. He wrote an entire article on it. He gets paid for this? I have the imprint of a qwerty keyboard on my face because I read more than three lines of this blather. Click here to fall asleep immediately.

Bombing stopped in Georgia...except over there...and maybe over there...oh, hey...bomb that house over there too...

Russia ordered a cease fire but no one is listening. Was it a real order or just more of a guideline? It must be official because it was a televised order...right? Click here for the story.
