Homeopaths not crackpots afterall?
Topic: Science 9:12 am EDT, Jun 13, 2003

] that water might retain a memory of substances once

] which treats patients with samples so dilute they are
] unlikely to contain a single molecule of the active
] compound, but it is generally ridiculed by scientists.

Bush falling off a Segway!
Topic: Current Events 8:44 am EDT, Jun 13, 2003

] U.S. President George W. Bush (news - web sites) is
] pictured in this combo image falling off a Segway
] personal transporter on the front driveway of his
] parents' summer home June 12, 2003 in Kennebunkport,
] Maine. Bush arrived from Washington to spend the weekend
] with his father, former President George Bush, who
] celebrates his 79th birthday today and his mother
] Barbara. Bush was not injured in the fall.

Oh this is hysterical - tipping these things really takes some doing! But then we aren't talking about the sharpest tool in the shed either.

"'being able to ride a segway' is akin to 'being able to ride an escalator' -- what's remarkable isn't that someone can do it, it's only remarkable when somebody can't"
