What's in the News

Huh, now why didn't I think to check snopes first? They, like factcheck, politifact & taxpolicycenter are my go-to's to double-check, well, the veracity of something. I wonder if the person I got the link from, a Princeton prof., knew the page was faked or whether she was taken in too? Oh well, ce'st la vie, fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice I'll bust your lip (or something like that

). At least I don't have to worry about trying to figure out how they actually proved a benefit (that's been nagging at me for nearly a month now, dog gone it!). Phew!

what i had heard in a radio show (don't know if its 100% accurate) is that it was 5-6am and he made coffee and was drinking his coffee in his kitchen when the mom and son walking by noticed him. was he doing something (other than being naked) that could have been obscene? otherwise what gives? strange story.

Radar detectors and other tools to avoid speed cameras are illegal in Germany, too, but I don't think an arrest like that would ever be possible here.

Why would you have speed cameras when there are no speed limits? To catch people driving too slow?
