OT: in the news

Two interesting stories:

Boys bouncing golf ball in parking lot... ball hits woman's SUV, she runs them over!

FoxNews reports on Wells College going Co-Ed... women there protesting and suing. All students interviewed who are against the change have active facial acne.

- so one wonders about whether that is cause or effect

Heh... just realized on re-reading, how sexist that post seems!

Uh, no.... I dont think so but maybe I better go away and come back to read a post before I hit send.

:)

The first, I was struck by the description "SUV" as if it mattered. Note that a car is never described unless it's an SUV or a sports car?

The second... I was wondering if the girls would have been treating the acne or better made up if the campus was co-ed.... and if that was a factor in their resistance.

I call that the tree hugger factor in reporting. A 40 car pile up could happen and if there is one suvee or one sports car it always seems to be their faults, even when it was some person drinking coffee, yaking on the cell phone driving KIA who started the chain reaction in the first place.

I have a feeling that Kate will have a little something to say when she reads your original post:) Claud
