WIStv.com Columbia, SC: A month of disaster for Midlands man
Topic: Current Events 8:51 am EDT, Sep 30, 2004

Sept. 29, 2004 - Lightning has struck twice for Vann Gibson. He woke up overnight to find his bed on fire, with him in it, "The edge of my mattress was burning. I jumped up immediately, ran into the kitchen to try to put it out and it didn't go out."

Vann Gibson is no stranger to escaping serious injury. He was the driver whose truck plummeted over the I-126 bridge last month. Gibson said the truck went out of control, sending him over the edge, "Just don't let me die. It's all I knew. I didn't want to die."

Natural Selection surrenders.

CBS 2 - New York News: Bride Attacked By Taser At Wedding Reception

] EVERGREEN PARK, Ill. (CBS 2) A south suburban Chicago
] wedding reception comes to a shocking end when cops
] responding to a call about loud noise allegedly attack
] the bride and her father with a taser gun.

Wow, that's a bad way to end a wedding. I wish I had spent more time reading about disastrous weddings when Mrs. adamist and I were preparing for our own... it would have saved us a lot of stress. Hearing about fiascos like this definitely would have lowered the bar on how well we expected ours to go.

Riverside feels ‘Wrath of Con’
Topic: Arts 5:03 pm EDT, Sep 29, 2004

It sounded too good…or too bad…to be true. Guess what: It isn’t true at all.

William Shatner’s low-budget sci-fi flick, “Invasion Iowa,” that was supposedly filming in Riverside, turned out to be an elaborate hoax.

To borrow the phrase from MTV, the entire town was “punk’d.”

Yes, William Shatner is there, and yes, there is a film crew, but the whole thing wasn’t for a movie, but for a “reality” show on what it’s like when a Hollywood film crew descends on a tiny Midwestern town.

I feel kind of bad for the town. Great headline for the article, though.

The New York Times -- John Kerry's Journey: A Fast Finisher's Reputation Now Faces the Ultimate Test
Topic: Current Events 10:58 am EDT, Sep 29, 2004

] As Mr. Kerry approaches this campaign's home stretch,
] with the first debate tomorrow night, there is much in
] his past to suggest that he believes elections are won in
] the endgame, that he holds back on purpose and begins
] concentrating intently on the race only when he believes
] the voters are, too. It remains to be seen whether an
] approach that has worked in Mr. Kerry's liberal home
] state or with Democratic primary voters eager to anoint a
] consensus candidate will be effective in a national
] election, but Mr. Kerry has little choice but to perform
] at his peak now.

] But their aides know a lot -- who's smart and

The results here are sometimes surprising.
