Morning Tweet: Vuvuzelas? Who are the ad wizards who came up with these things?

Moving on, these damn horn thingers are causing me to consider plugging my ears with letter openers. Enough already, people. We get it. In regard to Mr. Meyers’ tweet, I would like to add that South Africa is damn lucky they gave the world Charlize Theron. If it were not for that, I would treat every single one of those vuvuzela blowers as war criminals.
World Cup fever! Catch it!
Saturday is now! Soon every American home will integrate their television, phone and computer. You’ll be able to visit the Louvre on one channel, or watch female wrestling on another. You can do your shopping at home, or play Mortal Kombat with a friend from Vietnam. There’s no end to the possibilities!
