Stupid quote day: newspapers (all three)

by Miki Saxon

Normally, every Sunday I post three off-beat quotes (6 AM, noon, and 4 PM Eastern Time) from famous people or media and you respond with another strange quote either from the same person or on a similar or connected topic—the further out or more outrageous the quote the better.

If the connection isn’t fairly obvious it’s up to you to explain it.

As you may have noticed I blew the schedule today. This happened for two reasons—I didn’t have the post ready ahead of time (pre-posted as we bloggers say:) and after performing a number of domestic necessities yesterday I decided to reward myself with a couple of chapters from my favorite laugh-out-loud storyteller.

Big mistake, since her chapters are like potato chips—I just can’t read one or two and end up reading the whole thing. So when I finished the book and stopped laughing around 1 AM the last thought I had was today’s blog.

My sincere apologies to anyone whose day was discombobulated because there’s been nothing new here for two days (Saturday was just a lack of self-discipline).

OK, enough babbling, here are all three of today’s quotes.

“Lack of brains hinders research.” — Columbus Dispatch, Headline (some things never change)

“Most hotels are already booked solid by people, plus 5,000 journalists.” — Bangkok Post (a lot of politicians and mediarati would agree with this)

What have you read in your newspaper lately?
