But I still want to know where the trains went.

[Freeky]

Oh right.

Months after initially making the claim that undocumented immigrants were beheading people in the Arizona desert, Arizona Governor Jan Brewer (R) has finally admitted that she was wrong. Brewer first raised the spectre of beheadings on June 16 during an interview  with Greta Van Susteren on Fox News, when she said: "We cannot afford all this illegal immigration and everything that comes with it, everything from the crime and to the drugs and the kidnappings and the extortion and the beheadings and the fact that people can't feel safe in their community." She doubled down when questioned  on the claim by an Arizona reporter two weeks later. Brewer said, "Our law enforcement agencies have found bodies in the desert, either buried or just lying out there, that have been beheaded."

I don't follow the news. I figure if it's lulzy enough, I'll hear it from Dok.

TFYS, silly.

While I agree in principle, how is following the news TFYS?

[Adios]

I only put it there because she said she relied on you for news. As much as I like and respect you, I'm still going to want to know and research for myself. Also I like and respect Miss Freeky, no offense intended!

If I thought Freeky was looking to me for her opinion on the news, I'd walk away until she got better. 

Waiting to hear the funny gleaned out of the news is something else entirely.

Point made.

Dok is a way better source for news than most of the local papers.

Cain too.


Nassim Nicholas Taleb thinks you should only get your news from your friends. That way, it's prefiltered for relevance, you're not absorbing too much of the newsmedia's agenda and bias.

That makes a whole bunch of sense.

[LMNO]

But where do they get their news?

[Adios]

I'm weird. I enjoy sifting through a mountain of silt just to find a gold nugget or two.
