Random Bits o' the Morning
There was a bomb scare on my ferry ride to work this morning -- apparently a "bald guy with a goatee" made a comment that was overheard by another passenger who took it seriously and took it to a crew member. They decided that all the passengers needed to go to one end of the ferry (I was so tempted to try to get everyone to jump up and down in unison) while they investigated. Not to end it at that, we had to wait for state K-9 units to come on board and do a sweep before we could disembark.
On that same crossing, I overheard a lady behind me - who has a very cool jamaican accent - say (obviously referencing the current congressional sex scandal) "and he checked into rehab, rehab for what? pervert rehab?"
Guess you hadda be there.
Finally, the headline on ars technica this morning: Political lie detectors are coming, says Google CEO. I've already got political lie detectors. They're called ears.
