I Was Promised Donuts!

This sign was used as part of some San Franciscan's protest to a "protest rally" by people belonging to Westboro "Baptist Church" (which is truly a misnomer).  When the people protesting the protesters were finished, a local cop wanted the "I was promised donuts" sign for her Sergent's car.  Nice touch, I must say.

Security Theater, Anyone?

So who else has been tempted to say something when the TSA goon takes the water bottle from the 90 year old woman?

Oscar Winners

I'm rather glad some new faces won the big Oscars last night - even if the 'new faces' are the ex-wife of the guy that directed the sinking ship I still want 3+ hours of my life back for watching, the first person to win a best Oscar and worst Razzie in the same weekend, and 'the Dude'.

Air Tran

I must admit, I was quite excited to hear the news that Huntsville's found a new "low-fare" carrier. Air Tran will serve Baltimore and Orlando from Huntsville starting this May. Let's just hope this has a ripple effect on fares from Huntsville, the most expensive city to fly out of in the country. Oh, and that we can keep them, which seems to be the part of this equation we can't quite figure out.
