Poignant and hilarious at once. A winner of a cartoon. And it involves the word "data".

You need to solve cryptic crosswords? Some would suggest getting a life. I, having long ago decided that a life is overrated, instead encourage you to peruse this page.
Did the New Deal 'Help'? (Cato @ Liberty)

A very reasonable, concise analysis of what ended the Great Depression of the 1930s. Answer: almost certainly not any fiscal stimulus. Which makes sense to me.

"The Office"... in French! If the program is half as funny as the article describing it then I want the DVD with or without subtitles.

This is one of the funniest sites on the interweb. You know all that nonsense that is published in newspapers every day? Well in the UK you can complain to a toothless voluntary body about it! It's a waste of everyone's time except yours, the lulz-seeking browser. Here's just some of the endless fun that you too can enjoy at no cost at all!:

Complaint:

Ms Nuala O'Brien, the Director of Communications for the West London Mental Heath Trust, complained that the newspaper had published an article containing inaccurate references, including the suggestion that Broadmoor hospital was a prison.

Resolution:
The complaint was resolved when the newspaper amended the online article, removing references to "prison", "Broadmoor hospital for the criminally insane", "guards" and "inmates".


Classic!

Democracy disrespect challenged. Not that it will help matters much, sadly.
