Friday's Quirky Newsy Bits

This is why I constantly bang the drum about Americans NEED to PARTICIPATE in their own electoral process.

Adds a new spin to the phrase "EVERYTHING Goes!"

John Cameron Swayze on Global Warming

Quote of the day:
I loathe the expression "What makes him tick." It is the American mind, looking for simple and singular solution, that uses the foolish expression. A person not only ticks, he also chimes and strikes the hour, falls and breaks and has to be put together again, and sometimes stops like an electric clock in a thunderstorm.
- James Thurber
