The Good, The Bad, & The Ugly
The Good
Molliwogg fixed our printer today. Turns out there was a package of Smarties lodged in there that was causing paper jams.
The Bad
Attorney General John Ashcroft was recovering at a local hospital Tuesday after his gallbladder was removed to alleviate a severe case of pancreatitis that forced his hospitalization for nearly a week.
Bruce Abell, his attending surgeon, said Ashcroft, 61, was expected to recover fully and that his prognosis was "excellent." - Yahoo.
Rumor has it he was full of shit.
Oh, and did I mention there were Smarties in my printer? What possible excuse can I have for there being candy in my printer?
The Ugly
IN A LITTLE-NOTICED side effect of the war on terrorism, the military is edging toward a sensitive area that has been off-limits to it historically: domestic intelligence gathering and law enforcement.- Gen. Eberhart has stoked concern among civil-liberties advocates by saying that the military and civilians should be involved in developing "actionable intelligence" for the government. In September 2002, he told a group of National Guardsmen that the military and the National Guard should "change our radar scopes" to prevent terrorism. It is important to "not just look out, but we're also going to have to look in," he said, adding, "we can't let culture and the way we've always done it stand in the way." - Dow Jones Newswires.
Come on people now, spy for Big Brother...
