I percieve biases in all my news sources. That's why I have a diverse set.

I honestly believe that if anything important is happening in the world, there will be a debate about it on the internet.

But even "important" is subject to bias. I broke my flip-flop yesterday and had to walk home with an elastic band round my foot to keep it on. Incredibly important to me, but not picked up by any photography agency. I guess they're all busy at the moment.

If you started a thread about that, and it stuck around and got alot of responses, and generated alot of attention, it would have been deemed "important" via democratic process.

Totally clean dust-free toys are added to scenes of destruction for dramatic effect

Al Jazzera video proves that the tire fire mentioned above was caused by a misfired Hezbollah missile

I interviewed a woman on Monday for a job opening we had. She broke her shoe on the way to the interview. So after the interview, I got her a roll of packing tape and some scissors for her to try to fix the thing well enough to get home.

I'm just saying, it could be worse.

(Oh, and she didn't get the job.)

Yup, she had a worse day than me! Although it could be a turning point in her life - you could open a newspaper one day and see a totally new style of packing tape shoe designed by this woman...!

IDF activity causes footwear failure

Cellar user Sundae Girl experienced footwear failure on Tuesday
as she came under mortar fire from IDF tanks. She was only
able to return to her Midlands home by improvising a quick fix.
Experts say poor shoes are a major cause of stress in war zones.

Wow, Sundae, you feet are a bit more masculine than I pictured. No offense intended.

NONONO, UT, youve got it all wrong! I found Hajj's real picture...

Sundae 08-09-2006 12:43 PM

The scary thing was it was a red rubber band - only used by the Post Office in this country but pinched from the postroom by me. My toenails are purple at the moment though. Nail varnish, not bruising I hasten to add.

Trilby 08-09-2006 01:00 PM

This is all very delicious! Thanks for the laughs!

Seriously, though, I always knew my paranoia would some day pay off.

xoxoxoBruce 08-10-2006 10:34 PM

Obviously a fasho-Islamic plot, the USPS also uses red elastic bands. :D

note ~ I usually say rubber bands but when reporting terrorist activities accuracy is important... just ask Homeland Security.

Undertoad 08-10-2006 10:39 PM

And I knew that you knew that, because you gave me that band, in a set of them, and you told me how they came to be in your possession :D And now the cycle is complete :D
