panel 1: timestamp 10:40 pm. lila and cole lying in bed covered with a blanket, and daisy (their jack russel terrier) curled up at the end bed on top of the blankets. lila: it's going to be so nice tonight, with no streetlight in the window and no noise from the air conditioner or the nighbor's tv, just a nice quiet dark room. panel 2: timestamp 10:45 pm. lila and cole still in bed but the blankets have been kicked off of them and over the dog. both: damn, it's hot. daisy (from under the blankets): mrrf.

And now a quick break for some stupidity.

headline from cnn.com's inside politics section. poll: nation split on bush as uniter or divider. sketch: two crowds of people facing off, some carrying uniter signs and some carrying divider signs. both crowds yelling rant rant rant rant at each other. below them two people sitting around. first says if they can't agree on this doesn't that make him a divider by default? second says who cares? when's the eagles game on?

We’ll get back to the plot Tuesday. Jzimbert sent me this gem Saturday, and I couldn’t resist pointing it out — but I didn’t want to wait until March (which is where the current queue sits). Tuesday, we’ll get back to Lila and Cole and Daisy.

title: Bad AOL headline montage 3: let's take 2 horrible events and mix them together! AOL headline reads Powell stunned by devastation, quote: never seen anything like this, next line pregnancy hoax suggestion. Sketch added of Powell talking to reporters, saying i've been in war and i've been through a number of hurricanes, tornados and other relief operations, but i have never seen anything like this. the power of the wave to destroy bridges, to destroy factories, to destroy homes, to destroy crops, to destroy everyon in its path, is amazing. Oh, and I admit I'm not actually pregnant, it's just a little holiday weight. crowd of reporters gasps at this confession.

Yahoo lead photo: a shot of a boat on dry land and a headline that reads: Massive Tsunami Feeding Program Announced. Commentary: Apparently, Yahoo felt left out because AOL was running all the idiot headlines. Added sketch, a wave with big eyes and eyebrows yelling Rawr! Feed me! Villagers (stick figures) reply But you already ate 150,000 people! Wave replies Raawr! Feed me! Villagers reply yessir!

Nighthawk spotted this one on his My Yahoo page Saturday. Can you imagine spending all that time writing an article on the relief efforts only to have some nut put a headline like this on your work?
