Take a look at this ad for one of the propaganda shows on Fox. Consider that the grade-school-level mistake was made by the copy writer, okayed by the copy editor and okayed again [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[OMG. This is too funny. It&#8217;s a recording of a phone call on August 9, 1964, when President Lyndon Johnson contacted the famous pants company, Haggar, to get some more slacks for lounging around after work. Vietnam War? Fuhgeddaboudit. Pants!

		<description><![CDATA[I used to collect wine labels; some are almost art. One that&#8217;s inspired by art has been banned in Alabama because it&#8217;s just too darn erotic for their delicate Southern sensibilities. 
The state liquor agency says Cycles Gladiator Wine&#8217;s label with its drawing of a nymph and her winged bicycle violates regulations forbidding &#8220;persons posed [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The things I learn as a blogger. Until recently I had no idea Iowa&#8217;s state fair features sculptures made of butter; a life-size cow of butter is always included.
