Calmer weather slows fires in Calif., Wash. (story)
Stories where men is not the protagonist rarely seem funny to comment on. Nature is always serious about the news.

Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac must be happy.
War crime charges likely against Sudan leader (story)
“Lesser charges of helping orchestrate genocide and participating in crimes against humanity”… hmm so there are different degrees of participating in genocide.

Bush presses Congress on offshore oil drilling (story)
This sickens me. It’s not long-term solution, not even a short-term one. It’s nothing more than a big COP OUT. I hope no one ever gets fooled by that. Government needs to provide solution not smokescreens.

That lable of spy gets tagged on people pretty fast. Story is somewhat interesting, if only cause spies are cool.
Dog meat’s off the menu for Olympics (story)
I find that if you travel you ought to take the country as it is, and not have them adapt to your personal opinions and tastes. If you don’t wanna try dog meat, then don’t order it.
