Looking at the news this morning I see that yet another actress who posed nude for photos is shocked that people are looking at the photos. Outrageous!
I can't help but wonder what the headlines will look like a hundred years from now. Perhaps the new "normal" will be challenged
Tennessee Man admits to Opposite Se x Attraction Disorder!!
"Yes, it's true" he said "I've always been attracted to females. It's my burden."
His teachers confirmed "He was always a strange child, like whenever the National Anthem was played, instead of squatting and making farting noises like the other kids, he'd stand straight up and put his hand over his heart until the whole thing was finished. So weird!"
Neighbors weighed in, as well; "Well, one time we came to his house and told him that one of the neighborhood kids had been accused of writing sexist graffiti. Instead of getting his torch and helping us burn the family's house down, like any good citizen would, He asked a bunch of stupid questions like 'Did anyone see this?' and starting spouting off a bunch of crap about 'Innocent until proven guilty' and such. I mean, what a weirdo! Geez, what is this, the 1800's?"

You can temporarily suspend it to read the article. They get a little add revenue, and I don't have to pay to read the damn article. And if their adds are a pita, just block them again and move on.

Always nice to see something non-political in the news.

General Motors thinks it can make billions of dollars building and operating a fleet of self-driving cars, taking on UBER, LYFT and others. "This business is potentially bigger than our current core business," CFO Chuck Stevens told analysts yesterday. GM hopes to launch its autonomous robo-taxi fleets in big cities by 2019.
There have been a lot of decisions, business moves and tech advantages leading up to this. It isn’t new but it’s one of the first steps towards this really being implemented. Will be interesting to see if this really comes to pass this quickly or not.
This is also brigs up a point where in the programming that is meant to kill either the driver and passengers or make a choice to kill someone else. What I mean by that is this: if the car senses there is about to be an accident but it can avoid it by evading onto the sidewalk or into something else but there are pedestrians there, does it crash and potentially kill the driver and passengers or does it detour and run over the pedestrians and make that choice. That’s just one example of hundreds, but how do you program that and who is then responsible?

Just a small aside, and this does scare me. Add into the equation people with their heads buried in a cell phone and the ever growing "not paying attention" to where you are walking or what you are doing. I have been cussed out more than once because because I had the audacity to honk my horn (while stopped) at someone blind to the fact they were crossing the street against the light. I am seriously thinking about installing a boat horn for such occasions.

For those unaware, you shouldn't give dogs any cooked or processed bones. They should enjoy them raw and malleable.

Offensive to journalists?
