Ahhhhh, vacation. Traveling to a foreign country is all about learning new cultures, tasting new foods,
meeting new folks from all walks of life, buying cool souvenirs (read: crap) you can’t find in the States…and of course, catching up on lots and lots of world news. I meant lots and lots and lots. Not because you are so interested in knowing what is going on back home; rather, because CNN and BBCNews happen to be the only channel in English, so deal with it. After watching these two channels pretty much non-stop for the past 11 days, I believe I could become quite the successful international news programmer. Don’t believe me? Check out my current news lineup…
- The world economy is fucked
- US manufacturing is at a 28-year low
- Israel will not accept a cease-fire until Hamas stops lobbing rockets
- Cut to commercial for Namibia (“The Future Business Hub of Africa”)
- Cricket update (Australia is no longer a superpower, folks)
- Japan’s economy is fucked
- Russia is sneaky; very sneaky
- Soccer update (David Garrard arrested for beating some ass in a pub)
- The world hates America
- Obama is black
- London is cold; Abu Dhabi is hot
- Cut to commercial for tourism in Sri Lanka
- Hamas has a lot of rockets; Israel has a lot of tanks
- US government will bail-out anyone who screws up; the more you screw up, the more you get rewarded

- Cut to CNN commercial with Christiane Amanpour
- US economy is fucked
- Israel won’t allow foreign reporters into Gaza; Hamas still lobbing missiles
