Harry Potter at the Pentagon

Rather than actually write anything today, I thought I should lift some wonderful stuff from the ABC News website. Who knew that a spark of delight still lingered in a TV news network?

I went to a page where the lead story was how the Pentagon spends money to do research on developing armor that renders soldiers invisible (We already had that when I was in the army; it was called AWOL) and arming sharks with implants and cameras to work as spies.

The headline is “Fringe Science Yields ‘Gay Bombs’ and Psychic Teleportation.”

But what clinched my decision to steal rather than write anything is the series of headlines listed under “Related Stories.”

1. Robo-Lobsters and Mind-Controlled Sharks

2. Panel: Case Not Yet Made for New Nuke

3. Non-Lethal Weapon Makes Targets Feel Like They’re on Fire

4. Pentagon Hires New Spokesman
