- General Motors is closing their commercial Hummer division after failing to find a buyer. Aw, now who's going to fill the gas-guzzling, road-hogging, male-compensation car niche? (The building next to mine has a parking space that seems to be reserved for undriveable cars. A couple years ago, it was occupied for several months by a black Hummer whose left front end was so crumpled it made me shudder for whatever it had hit.)
- Some cash-strapped cities are supposedly shortening yellow lights in order to increase revenue from people running into the red lights.
- And remember...
Random stuff:
- A new website features a virtual Hollywood stock exchange, à la fantasy sports sites. I could make a virtual fortune just by betting the most on the movies most likely to cause me physical pain.
- Apparently that unintentional creep-fest Polar Express gives monkey the heebie-jeebies, too!

When I first got Pandora, writing utensils would disappear. As that happens to everyone, I didn't think much of it, until one day when I was looking in a closet and found a cache of pens in the corner. Dipity also likes to carry stuff around, including the AAA battery I saw her with last night, but she doesn't have a hiding place for stuff. She'll just drop the things in random spots.
WTF stuff:
- A South Korean couple spent so much time in Internet cafes caring for a virtual child that their own infant died of neglect. WTF is wrong with some people?
- Let's finish off on a humorous WTF (although perhaps not so humorous to someone who got that message during a corporate meltdown with the boss breathing down their neck):
