Fun with pie charts. Among other things.

Mattel to produce "Burka Barbie"?

"I can't wait to see the girls trying to accessorize this doll. ... We should all just hope that the doll is never caught watching TV with Ken."
 
 
Speaking of malevolent...


"Mars Attacks" was overrated, but it did have some good scenes to it. One that comes to mind is the Martians repeating "We come in peace!" even as they are shooting at everything that moves. I get kind of the same vibe every time I hear about the health care bill: "We're saving money!" even as the proposals add billions and billions (where's Carl Sagan when you need him?) to an already overextended federal budget. I don't believe the words, and I don't trust the motives.


Hmmm.......

So I was watching television the other day and was wondering whether I was the only one to think Timothy Geithner looked like a malevolent escapee from the Keebler tree.

Apparently I am not the first to have this thought.
