Moon's zombie.<br /><br />George, George...if kindness to the low-level functionary.gov doesn't work for you, how about, "The eagle does not hunt the fly." There is still a very big gap between the U.S. Census and the lads in silver-trimmed black with poison warnings on their caps (talk about truth in labelling!).<br /><br /> For a good example of what the eagle <i>does</i> productively hunt, have yourself a look at the recent video takedown of Acorn, accomplished by amateurs for pocket change. And with nary a death, too.<br /><br /> Call me old-fashioned but I still believe good guys don't fire the first shot. --Especially when a little sunlight can do the job bigger and better.Roberta Xhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09956807794520627885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5837660608809488753.post-20568289616758638792009-09-24T08:34:21.902-04:002009-09-24T08:34:21.902-04:00"Item: For the record, Census workers are jus...<i>"Item: For the record, Census workers are just workin' stiffs."</i><br /><br /><br />That's what the guys in the SS said back in 1945 too.

The AP computer may have simply recognized the dateline and plugged the Washington area map into the feed. Wouldn't have happened in the days when we pounded out news on loose-jointed Remingtons and yelled "copy" a lot.Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00034752526895428019noreply@blogger.com
