Was That Really Necessary?

So, what's worse? The thing in the box that plays on the commonly misunderstood technical meaning of "pandemic" or THE THING IN THE BOX THAT SAYS WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE!

I would say neither story is cause for concern at this point. It may be cause to appropriate more money to NASA, however. (btw: I thought 5 billion years was about the point the sun was supposed to supernova and swallow us before shrinking to a cold white dwarf anyway. So, shrug.)

who's in charge here?

Published by Christiana Dominguez, Phoblographer* seeks to capture and analyze the news, policy, and trends shaping California, the nation, and the world. A graduate of Claremont McKenna College and UC Hastings College of The Law, Miss Dominguez has recently and narrowly escaped several terms on the board of the California Young Democrats . A Los Angeleno by training, she currently practices law in Sacramento despite everything she's ever written here. Her work has been published in the San Francisco Chronicle. You can email her at the link above. For more on the name, etc, click here. Though it should go without saying, all views expressed here are strictly the author's own and should not be confused with the views of her parents, friends, or employer. If you do confuse those views, well, that's just lazy researching and will get you kicked right out of your oppo guild.

Phoblographer* endeavors to link only to what is reasonably trustworthy. Phoblographer* is not, however, responsible for the whole of outside sources' content, links, or wardrobe choices (honestly, I have enough trouble minding my own mouth, er, blog). So read, rinse, and repeat accordingly and at your own risk. If you're going to comment, remember to do so thoughtfully - you were probably raised better than to post attacks and petty insults on weblogs. Or if you must insult, at least be witty. And of course, as always, remember: For the record, I'm laughing with you, not at you. You just aren't laughing yet.
