CNN suckage

Wait until you get new gas pumps at your local station. Filling up at a new Shell in Tifton, Georgia, I was confused when I heard an advertisement for Dell computers come out of the blue the moment I squeezed the pump handle. I turned around and there it was on the pump display, in full color video with sound. After the commercial ended, can you guess what it did? Yep -- began showing highlight clips from that day's CNN coverage.

Having Blitzer try to get my attention to talk to me over my shoulder about the Iraq war while I filled my car up was a bit strange, to say the least.
