We put Los Angeles news briefs along the right side of the blog for fun. You read this story by KTLA about the fog – an interesting phenomenon in which a cloud hangs low to the ground – and you could reasonably conclude that Los Angeles is populated entirely by a people flash frozen during the Paleolithic era, kept in deep freeze for about thousand or so millennia, and thawed out around the time Al Gore invented the internet.
The article goes on to caution that fog can lead to dangerous travel conditions as it may create moisture on the roads. I want to work at KTLA. If you’ve ever watched the News at Ten on channel 5, you’d know immediately that many people have made recession proof careers at transforming the obvious into a stupefying force majeure that excuses all Angelinos from the social contract.
If they are not hiring because we’re in the Great Depression 2.0, then, the next time I see fog, I’m hitting the streets with my guns blazing. Gonna make the Rodney King riots look like a garment district sample sale.

Did you know that KTLA and The LA Times now work together to fill each other in about stories? Now that's a stupefying force majeur. Should be seeing that fog story hit the California section soon...
Yes. Have you read the LA Times lately? The thing may as well be written by a school of carp. Blame the FCC and Colin Powell's son, Michael.
