overtaken by events.

OBE'd again. Optics are going to be the decisive factor, after all. Fox Business insists: "we own this story." Meantime, the antes are upped with "what the flock" and "the most advanced technology you'll ever pee on" in the consumer information clips. This as statistics show that the average American household has 27 electric devices running at any given time and 42% of teenagers claim they can text while blindfolded.

Speaking of which, how is it possible that the human brain still allows for "blindfolded speed cubing" (round and round the Rubik's cube in about two minutes flat) while stupidity is making a serious comeback? It looks like the pigeons are onto us -- they have become more and more aggressive in their flight patterns around humans.

This week's "now more than ever" platitude-watch winner is the Kia ("Napels zien en dan...") 'Sorrento!'.
