Overheard

While I was in the computer room installing Ubuntu Linux, Emma was watching some silly animated kid thingie on Fox. During a commercial break, this comes drifting through the doorway:

"Hummers: Why Some People Really Love Them. Fox 9 News at 9."

France

"There have been 4,700 cars burned in France since the rioting began, and 1,200 suspects have been detained, most temporarily."

I've driven a French car. I don't understand why they're detaining anybody for burning them.
