Get your Columbus out of here

Quit messing with my mind, Google Maps!

It's been a few days since I visited the site. Today, Interstate 80 through Sparks-Reno, Nevada, has a new label: "Christopher Columbus Highway."

Uh ... no. New Jersey labels I80 that, and I10 gets the name for miles and miles and miles.

Not in Nevada. Google runs it onward to California, throwing in Dwight D. Eisenhower.

TMI. One highway, one name.

Ship deserts the sinking rats

Mass murder in Japan today, by knife. I think humanity has reached the "behavioral sink" point in population levels. First mice, then rats, now us.

From today's Word A Day:

A THOUGHT FOR TODAY:

Hatred is the most accessible and comprehensive of all the unifying agents. Mass movements can rise and spread without belief in a God, but never without belief in a devil.
