Random Thoughts on the Day's News

In a new poll conducted by Newsweek, 41% of Americans still believe Saddam Hussein and Iraq were responsible for 9/11. A majority of Americans don't know most of the hijackers came from Saudia Arabia; 20% thought they came from Iraq, and 14% thought they originated from Iran.

In an unrelated poll, 96.7% of Americans know Paris Hilton was released from jail last night.

A survey revealed that only 2.2% of Americans (comprised of the Amish and a few scattered survivalists in Idaho) don't own a television set.

I did the math: that means 1.9% of Americans with televisions didn't know Paris Hilton had been released from jail. I call these people "Media Slackers."

When asked about Paris Hilton, 47% of Swedish citizens said they preferred the Rome Hilton. Another 28% said the hired help at the Paris Hilton were rude, and that they now preferred to vacation in Rio.



Enough. Now back to our regularly scheduled blog . . .
