It's amazing that the amount of news that happens in the world every day always just exactly fits the newspaper.

Woman doesn't return after taking car on test drive
The owners of the used Mazda told the woman she could drive the car around the block. She hopped in and never returned. To add insult to injury, the car sellers discovered three pieces of jewelry missing from their bathroom counter. "She stuck us for a $10,000 car and $3,000 worth of rings," says the crime victim.

What's in a name? That which we call a rose
By any other name would smell as sweet. William Shakespeare
Go figure ... I wish the stones had a bass player named Roo
Pop music writer Bill Wyman recently heard from former Rolling Stones bassist Bill Wyman's lawyer, who wrote: "I must ask that you immediately cease and desist from authorizing or permitting any such use of our client's name." The musician's attorney said the Atlanta Journal-Constitution writer could continue to use his own name if he could prove that he had come by it legally, and if he added a disclaimer to everything he wrote in the future, "clearly indicating that [you are] not the same Bill Wyman who was a member of the Rolling Stones." Journalist Wyman writes: "I wondered if Mr. Wyman and his lawyers would endorse 'Not That' Bill Wyman as an acceptable byline."

The quickest way to end a war is to lose it. George Orwell
As yet the spectre of another war looms over the head of the world, America today celebrates Veteran's day . This is a day where they are supposed to honor the veterans from past wars and what do americans do? Well Macy's is having a sale with everything marked down 15 to 25 percent. How many people are actually going to go to a parade (are there even any scheduled?) or to a VA hospital? Why not call it another way for Macy's to make money day? way not make it a Hooter's day with 15 to 25 percent off wings and beer? and of course you may bring your grandpa but only if he's a veteran!!!
