Saturday Serendipity

We spent the better part of this morning in the emergency room waiting to see if Sophie's leg was broken. Fortunately, it wasn't! She fell last night while playing in a friend's backyard, got banged up pretty bad and when she woke up her leg was bruised and swollen and she said walking on it "really hurt". Sophie never complains. So this was probably serious. I asked if she wanted to go to the hospital and she immediately said "yes".

They took X-rays and said it's a contusion on her bone but nothing is broken. Take 2 aspirin and call your doctor in the morning. Phew!

On the way home I heard on the radio about a recent survey by the German broadband association which found that 84% of persons aged 19-29 would prefer to do without their partner rather than forego the internet. That's probably because for most of them their partner is the internet.

When Bob Belvedere asked "Is there something seriously wrong with me?" followed by "my first thought after seeing this picture of New York Governor Patterson..." I immediately assumed, "oh no, not another blind guy joke". Fear not, only Lance stoops that low. But yes, I do my paperwork in pretty much the same way. You got a problem with that?

Meanwhile, my fellow Resistance buddy Matt celebrates schadenfreude at the expense of the MSM.

Is Michael Steele the GOP's version of Joe Biden or what? Erick Erickson is right, he has lost all moral authority to lead the GOP. Michael Steele must resign. The perfect replacement? Liz Cheney.

Spen King, who designed the original Range Rover, passed away this week at the age of 85. His iconic luxury off-road vehicle is the status symbol of choice for athletes, rock stars, and royalty the world over. Land Rover is now a part of India's Tata Motors, and they've turned the design of the latest Range Rover over to a new designer.

Posh Spice, better known as Victoria Beckham, is Land Rover's newest Creative Design Executive. Her first effort, the new Evoque Coupe, is set to debut next year.

Let's see. Posh Spice. Tata Motors. Yup, sometimes the jokes just write themselves.
