News day.

Unfunny Comic Strip of the Day

The FAA is one of the most dysfunctional bureacracies in the government. But the union for Air Traffic Controllers is, well, check out their blog:
Heck, it's so effective it was might have even been scrawled on some cave wall somewhere by prehistoric man, showing Grog and Bronk throwing a big rock at a dinosaur while he had his back turned. I think they called it "Dook-Dook-Ugh."

Another highlight:
"Bang! Bang! Halt!" is the practice of making sure the perp you are chasing isn't the shooter getting off the first shot. The po-po pickles off a couple rounds, shouts "Halt! and then walks over to see how busted up the suspect is.

"the po-po"?

Finally, in local news, a woman was raising tigers, but starving them, and one (justifiably in my opinion) got ticked off and attacked her.
Best line in the story?
"I swear she loved animals ever since she was about 2 years old," said Gamble, who described her daughter as tackling challenges from scuba diving to skydiving. "She was game for most anything."

I guess she was. Especially a tiger.
