Hard News: Fox News: I know, right?, in reply to Lyndon Hood,
showtime...
I like how well the bunch-of-jokes-and-mockery
followed by analytical-rant format works.I know, Parliament is almost there...
They need better joke writers though!
(and waaay more intelligent analysis....)
caught report...
spooky - I'd not heard of Crossfire before, but yesterday I pulled up behind a crossfire car, which I'd never heard of before either (Chrysler/Karmann apparently) - everything is connected! -

Watch and cringe...

Hard News: "Because we can", in reply to Russell Brown,
It would require more empathy than they typically display.

Capture: Two Tales of a City, in reply to Hebe,
Do we have the bottle…?
A Hundertwasser precinct…

Live the Life Aquatic in the East,
Rise to the Delta Dawn in New Fenland…
(or Nova Avondale)
Slough off the weary past
Life is wet

Hard News: "Because we can", in reply to David Cormack,
Hound dogging them around...
Isn't this a job for Keith Ng?

Capture: Two Tales of a City, in reply to Hebe,
