We can work it...oh, nevermind

Has anyone else noticed how often the Beatles' "We Can Work It Out" is on the radio, now that the news of Paul McCartney's marriage breakup has surfaced?

Wow -- stereo!

We recently took a long trip by car and decided to rent a car instead of taking one from our own aging fleet. We ended up with a very well appointed Buick Lucerne. The sound system in that car was amazing. At the end of that trip we picked up and drove home the 1993 Ford Crown Victoria my dad was selling. Talk about contrast! One interesting point of contrast: While the Lucerne's speaker covers in the doors have little plaques citing "Harmon Kardon", the Crown Vic's speaker covers proudly proclaim "Stereo" -- as if in 1993 it was still a big deal to get a stereo radio in an upscale American car.

Selling drugs from a boat

Does anyone else see the irony in a TV commercial featuring someone fishing from a boat, while trying to sell us a drug whose name is one vowel away from "capSIZin'"?
