President fell off bike today and squashed Schrodinger's Cat
Edited on Sat May-22-04 08:54 PM by troublemaker
Here's Matt Drudge's splashed announcement:
President fell off bike today... Kerry told reporters in front of cameras, 'Did the training wheels fall off?'... Reporters are debating whether to treat it is as on or off the record... Developing...
Okay, is it just me or does reading this put you in a state of philosophical confusion? Gee, I wonder whether Kerry's comment that I just freaking READ will be reported or not? Who cares whether Schrodinger's Cat is alive or dead? The real question seems to be what percentage of Americans will hear the answer. "How closely are you following the health of Shrodinger's cat? Very Closely, Somewhat Closely..."

2. Let's hope he walks it!
PS, when Bush said Iraq would take off their training wheels on June 30 I wanted some paper to headline it Bush says wheels about to come off in Iraq

4. Constantly
"Did he fall over Max's Planck?"

He's constantly falling over it. Somebody should tell him to leap.

15. A "quantum" leap?
The real question is whether, when leaping, will he obey quantum mechanics and go to a lower energy level (as the polls suggest), or will he orbit faster and faster in "right"-hand circles....

9. PS: I hope they treat it as on the record
Edited on Sat May-22-04 08:51 PM by troublemaker
I refuse to believe that in a two-man race people will vote against Kerry because he poked fun at the known fact Bush is a childish moron ('moran' for lurkers) It's like the "town with only two barbers" brain-teaser. One barber's a slob and one looks great. The answer is that you go to the one with the bad haircut because the other barber must cut his hair. So the new brain teaser is, "There are two candidates. One of them is so mean he openly mocks the fact the other one has never done a thing right in his life. Would you vote for someone that mean?"

12. AP has said nothing about this alleged on camera comment. Instead this..
Told about Bush's mishap, Kerry said, "I hope he's OK. I didn't know the president rode a bike."

Let's just hope his term in office is a singularity.
