- I should have known it was going to be bad day when the traffic reporter on KQED radio said there was still a problem on the N line after telling us about an as-yet undiagnosed problem on the L line.

- I was just reading where a movie producer has been sending faux stories about famous actors to the tabloids and they publish them! No one checks to see if any of the details are true! :) And, tongue in cheek I presume, the producer said something to the effect that in this economy, it's a way to make some money.
