Minnesota nice

Our understanding of how the news cycle works is that about 2 a.m., the only union employee in the operation, the maintenance guy, cuts the little ticker tape and packs everything into an ashcan and rolls it off, and then the jabberheads have to pick up the next thing on the tape and talk about until their shift ends. That is the only reason to explain why in six hours of CNN coverage all they could talk about was Sarah Palin's daughter while the Pig's Eye riots were going on.

Lately the readiest source of news and information is the Beagetolerationable's wife's sister, and she reports that the damage to property caused in the Pig's Eye riots in one hour is greater than all the damage done in Denver in the week.
