CAN'T TALK, YELLING AT CNN CRAWLER

That CNN scrolling dealie at the bottom of the screen sure says the darndest things!

I'm not upset that Renee Zillweger (who cares how it's spelled) is going to star in a Janis Joplin biopic.

However, one of the scrolling headlines mentioned that the big island of Hawaii (cleverly titled "Hawaii") is on the verge of instituting a comprehensive smoking ban. After this bit, it said that the business community was worried about the impact of such a ban.

I couldn't believe my quickly-scanning eyes.

Ok, real quick:

1) People who smoke die younger
2) People who don't smoke live longer
thus,
3) People who live longer, consume longer!

Yeesh!

More posting tonight or tomorrow.
