New York Yankee Alex Rodriguez tackled a boy who was about
to run in front of a speeding delivery van at a busy intersection
Friday. He saved the kid's life. That night, the Boston newspapers
accused Alex Rodriguez of interfering with a truck.
Wall Street began to worry Monday as the Dow Jones average
fell to a new low for the year. It's no secret why. Under current
conditions it's tempting for new parents to take money out of the
stock market and put it in their baby's gasoline fund.
Bobby Fischer faces criminal charges for hate speech after
his anti-Semitic rant upon his arrival in Reykjavik. He had no
idea Iceland had a hate speech law. He could just kill his realtor
for not checking into that before he left Tokyo.
Howard Dean made fun of Arnold Schwarzenegger's English at a
fundraiser in Los Angeles on Saturday. He continues to find
original new ways to end his political career. If you think Howard
Dean's cowboy whoop was scary, you should hear his German accent.
New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson said Monday the
Democrats must reconnect with American core values if they hope to
regain the White House. He's right. The tough part is to get
renters behind the idea of property qualifications for voting.
The Supreme Court agreed Monday to consider if a New Mexico
church can serve hallucinogenic tea in its religious services.
They can't be the only one. The Hindus didn't encounter a god with
four arms and two heads doing Welch's and wafers.
Wisconsin this week polled the idea of a law to permit the
shooting of feral cats. It's causing panic. Newspaper readers in
Milwaukee are afraid to open the Sentinel every morning because
they think Garfield might fall out of the funny pages.
