Tuned Out
Since Mr. Pop sort of commandeered the computer this weekend in order to catch up on some work, I was by circumstances forced to tune out as far as news goes. Did I miss anything? Please bring me up to date on what’s happening.

Unfortunately, you didn't miss an impeachment. You didn't miss an outbreak of peace in Iraq. You didn't miss an agreement between the Israelis and Palestinians. Or break-throughs in technology that would set the world on the path toward sustainable energy policies. You didn't miss an end to world hunger. You didn't miss anything, really.
I second that comment! ; (
You're lucky, for those of us that watched the news: Britney flashed us her baldness. She was keeping it covered for a while, but then she showed it to everybody. Again.
Her head now matches her crotch, now how are we supposed to tell which end is which? Oh, she had tattoos put near her neck to help the media locate her head. I have not heard if they found anything yet.
Wow, I could have lived without that news, Nick!
In other news:
On Friday the PM of Iraq gushed over the "dazzling success" of Bush's heightened security in Baghdad.
On Monday, Baghdad car bombs left over 60 dead and 131 injured.
The biggest news for me was my Pat Robertson-style call from god, in celebration of Presidents' Day, giving me the
inside scoop on the presidential field.
Oh... and he also declined to discuss the weather in detail (he speaks only to small furry animals on that issue) - but did say he was sparing the fruits around Orlando and Disney again. And, he absolutely does not tell Robertson everything.
I baked a cake.
I'm not sure if you or anybody else on the planet is aware but apparently Brittney Spears got a haircut.
I know, I know this is news to you all, but I thought it was very important and you all should be made aware.
Yes you missed it -- the world fell apart...but we are all still here. *sigh* (wink)
The world ended. Bush Jr. didn't resign...blamed Democrat Party.
Lil Joe drew his 1st discernible picture, got his 1st tool bench and I posted my first online video. I'm changing my name to Hitchcock.
Peace.
Nicole was embalmed and Britney got bombed and shaved her head. I think both were protesting a ban on trans fats. Other than that - your RSS feed is broken. I have redone it twice and it works and then goes out. This is making me so crazy, I might have to shave something. (Dog looks worried).
Over a vanillia latte, Britney solved the violence in the Middle East.
She is so cool.
I got a new all-in-one printer. Now I can Fax my BS to the White House.
Nothing new happened in Australia, just more news on drought, drought, and drought. Better go and drink a glass of water before it runs out.
Same news different day. Except for the news about the asteroid that will hit the earth in 2036. Right now I am more concerned about the earth surviving the current administration. Then I will worry about asteroids.
I thought I'd made a comment here; maybe not. Anyway, should it suddenly surface, I said in part: By the way, I'm nominating you for President.
Actually, I uh...(my beet red face tries to think of a way out of this one!), I was referring to Fred The Cat.
Nothing personal, I assure you!!:)
we had a party over at my blog while you were gone. People got naked & danced on tables. A couple of people fell into the pool. It was crazy!
you should of been there!
I can never seem to make it to this location PoP for an AM drink. Sorry. As to your query, of course you missed some things, but are they important to note? Doubt it. Be thankful for the respite.:-)
Blog on all.
Well, I tried the new snowthrower; Ohio got whalloped!
Things are like before. Stupid people said stupid things. The world still revolves around the sun no matter what certain republicans say.
Same ole sh*t, unfortunately. Hope you are doing well, PoP.
I've got some news for you Pop;
A pregnant woman was forgotten inside an ambulance and wound up in a mechanic's shop instead of the hospital in Rio De Janeiro. The abulance picked her up but drove straight past the hospital and parked in the mechanic's shop. Mother and child were in good health.
The partially mummified body of Vinzenco Ricardo, 70, who apparently died a year ago, was found on front of his TV which was still on in Hampton Bays, New York. Needless to say, that poor Vinzenco wasn't feeling too frisky.
Now you should be up to speed, Pop!

Article uncovering Vulture funds. Seems the World Bank and IMF found a way to look good by giving debt relief and then sold the loans to sharks (vultures) to keep the debtors at their mercy.
