Confusing...so confusing

Right after Al Gore invented the internet, journalism began its agonizing swan dive into the typography's toilet. Couple that with the morons at Yahoo! News with stories titled "8 ways to think like Warren Buffet", "Bored of chicken for dinner?", and "6 popular tattoo designs".
I want to poke myself in the eye with a pencil. I know there are pencils around because it appears "journalists" don't think before they write. Or even do more than one draft.
The lack of dignity in the profession is awe-inspiring as of late. I believe that the barrier to entry is having DSL.
This article, though, really took the cake. I may be exhausted from my self-imposed looooong workdays, but I couldn't make heads or tails of this story to save my life. It seems like everybody is married to everybody and that a "messy home" is a clear indicator of child neglect and a childhood disappearance case is re-opening after 20 years and...OMIGOD WILL YOU PEOPLE STOP (and maybe not have as many kiddlins?)!!!!
Beige suits you, babe.

Speaking of messy houses: mine is definitely there. But I promise the only abuse our child Brutus suffers is too much love & affection.

I stumbled across your blog one day whilst googling cycling and cross. So glad I did. I love your humor, writing style and general observations on life. Thanks for sharing!
