The New York Comic Con’s done for the moment, and I have a re-cap I want to put up, but in the meantime I want to show you something that threw me for a curve today: the Yahoo news headline this evening.
Painful fill-ups & papal trivia
Everybody realizes gas prices are skyrocketing, but you may not know these facts about the pope.
Viewpoint one: I did realize that gas prices were skyrocketing, and I am also glad to learn more about the pope.
Viewpoint two: I did not realize that gas prices were skyrocketing, but when I went to read more about it, I found instead only trivia about the pope.
Viewpoint three: I searched for more information about the pope, yet the lead-off story about gas prices skyrocketing put me off, and I did not receive any trivia about the pope.
Viewpoint four: The pope is responsible for gas prices skyrocketing, and I will enjoy reading this article, while wearing my tinfoil hat.

You see the problem with tin foil hats is that they’re actually made of aluminum now and thus actually help focus the alien brain-wave reading satellites.
