So there's a blank white field here and nothing to write about.

I thought about writing about Ashley Smith, the brave and resourceful woman in Georgia who talked the fugitive into surrendering without further bloodshed, but you've probably seen enough about her on television. Well, maybe not. She has quite a story to tell, and seems like one impressively calm woman. I hope that they give her the $65,000 reward they were offering for information leading to the capture of Brian Nichols. She deserves it.

Then there's the Oddly Enough stories. Here's a weird one about scented bowling balls. Really. But can you ask someone to sniff your (bowling) balls without them thinking you're a pervert? Even stranger, McDonald's is thinking about using remote calling centers for drive-through orders. What the hell?! Sure, the story mentions "someone with a North Dakota accent", but we know that they'll outsource it to Apu in Mumbai, because he works cheaper than Lars in Fargo. Why would you want some foreigner whose English is problematic mangling your order? Bad idea, Mickey D's, bad idea.

As you can see, I've got nothing today.
